Rice isn't that player, but it shouldn't just be down to him. If they can't get through the high press against the topTeams then they'll always be limited. Kane can't get the ball which is why he goes hunting for it way back in defence, same thing happened to Rooney late on in his career. All well and good having great attacking players but if they don't have the ball they can't get it into the opposition box often enough to score.</blockquote>
