He was a regen, never made it out of my U-18s, but if you watched his U-18 goals conceded, you'd see things like:

Opposition striker comes in on a breakaway, keeper starts rushing out, but stops just beyond the six...

... then dives to his right as the shot goes to his left.

It totally looked like he froze, panicked, and then tried to get out of the way!

IMO, its both, they're as important as each other.

Bravery:

Does what it says on the tin, player will challenge with no fear, maybe help other attributes I suspect such eagerness to win.

Agression:

The player is a fiery character | or | Tackles hard but fair, BUT tackles very hard.

On my basis above then obviously it would be yes, but if I had to choose between the two I'd go for bravery, its seems to be the safer option, the other feels to gun-ho for me, not in a team game I want to play with eleven players not ten.

I would learn, more towards, maybe better att defensive headers say, defensive corners, will keep charging the opposition as their brave, they want to win, well.....maybe:/

The opposition striker would be nervous, or more like bugger I wont dribble past you it going to hurt....... Or they'll keep drawing fouls if a more talented player if to compare Defender - V - Striker

As well as bravery, anticipation and certain amount of aggression I believe decisions to be very important when looking a centre backs! We all know how decisive Titus Bramble is and look what happens to him!
