Style of play
Holland plays as a midfielder. English news website Last Word On Sports wrote in 2026 that he "tends to operate in a deeper role as one of a pivot or the base of a three, he can play a bit further forward as a traditional central midfielder... likes to pick up the ball deeper and use his strong passing range to orchestrate play and try to fashion space for a line-breaking pass... has been praised for his vision to pick out a pass, his ability to hold onto the ball under pressure, his tackling, which he can do comfortably with either leg, and his ball carrying".[3]
