Think i wrote a massive spiel about why Gerrard should be in the box rather than the corner in another thread awhile ago, but ill just say here it really is a must he is in there. The balls he puts in are not anything remarkably better than what anyone else can do, but his attacking presence is without saying one of the best we have. His attack on the ball is brilliant, and his positioning and awareness add a real danger to any situation. Having more of our attacking players in the box also gives the opposing defense more to worry about and thus helps to open them up. With Johnson also adding more since he has been here, and then the presence of the likes of Kuyt, Yossi etc to pick up the pieces as Kuyt did at West Ham, it really should be the way we go. Gerrard in the box every time for me.
