Creativity in Football

Creativity 'fast and furious' or 'slow and steady'?

"The July issue of Wired magazine contains a fascinating article about research done by David Galenson from the University of Chicago, which suggests that creative people come in two types: quick and dramatic, and careful and quiet. Amazingly, these two genius profiles can be found in nearly every type of creative pursuit."

I wonder if this sums up something similar to football: (1) Attacking furiously and shoot on sight, hoping you get a goal, or (2) Pass carefully and with detail, until you setup a team mate with good opportunity, and shoot beautifully... and scores.

Viva Italia!
