The 66-year-old West Brom manager fears the teams in the English top-flight are becoming too similar and coaches are being restricted
Sam Allardyce has warned that the Premier League is in danger of becoming boring because teams have been "brainwashed" into using the same playing style.
The English top-flight has opened up to different tactical approaches over the last decade, with an influx of coaches coming from elsewhere in Europe.
However the West Brom manager fears coaches are being prevented from sticking to their preferred style and that the league is suffering as a result.
