Just like the Ibra-leader-we would-be-nothing-without-him crap theory, this is another one...
Nocerino is NOT Gattuso's natural replacement! And he does not have to be! Gattuso was a a phenomenon in his own way... I'm just saying that people should stop comparing them as if they were similar.
I'm not saying he's not good, the guy has scored 10(?) goals, has 3 lungs (like someone said before), & gives his heart and soul on the pitch...but please do not compare him to Gattuso. His work rate & commitment probably, his defensive skills not in a million years....his forward running and goal scoring, Gattuso can only dream of. So even if they play the same position, this does not make them comparable. They are 2 very different players.

i dont think nocerino will be scoring lots of goals if it wasnt for ibra
but yeah
he usually doesnt get the best out of his teammates, but so did cr7
u guys might call me crazy, but i think pazzini is a decent replacement for ibra
Maybe not Nocerino, but Robino might have (well maybe)...but scoring is not the only way to measure how players get the best out of each other....general team performances are.
Ok, wanted to check how much Ibra had a hand in Noce's goals and found this vid on youtube:

unfortunately it only has 7 goals + some nice chances (if someone can get all his goals would be great)
of the 7 goals, Ibra was involved in 2:
One the opponent's defense failed to clear so also credit to Noce for fighting for it...
the 2nd was initial pass from Ibra to Nesta(?) who headed it to Noce.
So can hardly say that Noce's goal scoring record is due to Ibra
