Comparing shots to creativity is comparing apples and oranges. There was very little creativity, especially from midfield and only 2 or 3 decent crosses the whole game. Sending high far post corners to the 5.9 Scully didn’t work. As for chances on goal , out of all the ones you mentioned not very many were clear goal scoring chances. Almost getting to a cross or on the end of a pass is still not getting there, just like almost scoring a goal isn’t a goal .
Creativity is surely creating opportunities to shoot at goal ? What else is your definition ? And this thread has already listed the 5 or 6 that were clear goal scoring chances.
Yes, we could have taken better corners (though they were't all bad) and that would maybe have created even more chances.
