A good cross does not make you an attacking fullback. Its like saying that OShea is an attacking midfielder just because he rarely misses in front of goal.
Gaz had improved greatly in going forward but he is no Cafu or Alves in it either. Gaz strengths where and still are positioning, tackling, leadership and ability to win the ball.
