20-goals-a-season forward or more goals from midfield?

[Maldini]

Which is more important? Chelsea have won the league for the past two seasons without a forward scoring over 20 goals a season and United look like winning the league this year with Rooney their top forward having scored 14 league goals. Our forwards have outscored Chelsea and United's this season but they're ahead of us in the table.

 

Just for the record, league goals from forwards this season

Liverpool - 31

 

Kuyt - 12

Crouch - 9

Bellamy - 7

Fowler - 3

 

Arsenal - 31

 

van Persie - 11

Henry - 9

Adebayor - 8

Baptista - 3

 

Chelsea - 30

 

Drogba - 19

Kalou - 7

Shevchenko - 4

 

Man United - 29

 

Rooney - 14

Saha - 8

Solskjaer - 6

Larsson - 1

 

The real difference in goals scored this season has been the amount coming from midfield. United have scored 40 league goals from midfield this season (44 if you count O'Shea as a midfielder), Chelsea have 23 and we only have 15.
