I feel the exact opposite

while Aqui scores more goals than Xabi, Xabi's passing ability is just magnificent...we have our share of goalscorers, we really need a guy who can provide the assist, where IMO Xabi is a lot better than Aquilani
i wonder where you fantasy manager get your facts from ... it's certainly not from the real life, because in the real life x. alonso did only score 12 goals and make
2 assists in the last four seasons ...
and don't start with "but he does do the pass to the man that assists"-shit...
it is more difficult to assist than play to someone who does then assist another player for a goal
what will alonso do ? will he play to our wingers more often with his wide passes ? oh, i forgot ... we always had a thousand chances where some molinaro, grygera, salihamidzic, nedved and camoranesi were in decent positions to get their crosses right ... if there is one thing we do not have it is a winger with good precise crosses. camoranesis high balls are only useful if he is near to the centre, but his crosses from the wing are not better than mediocre.
you watch too much from this
and too less from this
