To even suggest that all Nolan does is score goals is just daft. He may not be as influential as Barton and Tiote in and out of possesion (when he doesn't score, obviosly) but he's hardly a poor footballer, not a great one mind, but thats where the goals come in.
If Nolan was technicaly gifted on the ball and could spray passes about for fun he'd be on Gerrard/Lampards level [/clichedcommparison]
