There's no point trying to match styles of play. Styles aren't linked to specific clubs, they're the product of the managers ( each manager has his own distinct style), and football is a manager merry go round. You could pick a team based on one style, 6 months later the manager gets the axe and the next manager has them playing dross. Many teams will also take a different approach to each game, most clubs will attack when they're the favourites and defend when they're the underdog, not always. The big exceptions are Crystal Palace and West Ham under Tony Pulis and Sam Allardyce respectively, who set their teams up to defend at all costs, cheat, foul, and grab a scrappy goal by catapulting the ball up to the other side of the pitch and hope for a lucky defensive error or dive for a penalty etc.

Better off choosing a football club by finding a city and/or status of club that matches you. If you're boring and just want to watch your team win every game then pick one of the top sides. If you want the real thrill, excitement and emotional rollercoaster experience that football offers, then pick a smaller club. Remember the bad times amplify the euphoria of the good times and when you follow a smaller club, seeing them win is infinitely more satisfying, specially when they beat one of the big sides.

For a new supporter looking to get in to English football this season, Hull city is a good shout. A side that has vastly underachieved in almost it's entire existence, in a decently sized city with a huge catchment area and just starting to come to life. Lots of potential for the club to keep moving forwards, they're currently about to embark on their first ever campaign in a European cup, have money to spend, have already made some exciting additions and are looking to add more. They have some very exiting young talent as well as potent attacking players, and can both play some very exiting attacking football as well as battle it out in defence.
