accessdate=2007-06-15]Green likes to play as a striker and has a lot of pace, which he can display best in the role of a right-sided attacking midfielder, however, can be equally as good on the left-side too. One part of his game that makes Green noticeable too is his temperament and sometimes argumentative attitude. This approach usually goes down well with the fans, but not always with the officials.
