Those players give those teams an extra "edge" - Blackman didn't really do that for us, as really all he did was score 11 goals. You can't say "where would you be without his goals" as Clarke would have gone out and found someone to be our 25 goals a season man, he didn't need to as he saw enough in Blackman in the summer to believe in him.
So yeah if you just physically just remove him and his goals we would be lower however if you replaced him with someone else just as capable we could be higher and they could have more goals than what he got.
