Yeah, i take you're point - you could apply that to a lot of the squad but come on.. you can't say that Pennant, Xabi, Lucas, MAscherano, Carra at al dont score/create opportunities because of the role that rafa sets them.

How many times do you see jermaine cut inside and get into a decent scoring opportunity...

Xabi has never offered anything in attack. Sad, but true.

it wouldnt bother me if carra never scored again - the guys an immense player, hugely underrated by the english media and its only when you watch him week in week out that you begin to realise just how good he is.
