If you put Nasri in his position, he would score once every two games too. If you put Arteta there, the same.
To establish himself as an elite player, Fabregas should've stayed at a club with more of a focus on power. Cesc is a power player - like Gerrard or Lampard. There's no shame in that, you can be a fantastic player.
