Rooney has filled gaps on the left or right wing while the likes of Giggs or Anderson have played behind in the main striker. Fergie even tried Rooney and Rio in central midfield a couple of seasons ago but we got hammered.
The likes of Keane and Essien have filled gaps in defence. Essien, Gerrard have played in many different positions on the pitch. They must be mediocre players too who will only get a start at Newcastle
Filling a gap at a different position requires ability too. Not everyone can do it and definitely not well enough for a top club.
