Are you really asking why one player can adapt better than another player?
As a striker, yes. Clearly Britt is a much better player than Barney for instance per se and that may be why but if your position is striker, if you can't adapt and play different type striking roles, then you aren't much of a striker.
Corr isn't too bad at adapting, he can be the target man, he can come deep and collect the ball and he can be the chaser that closer down defenders early.
Britt is clearly going to go far in the game because a few things. Attitude, determination, skill, and vision to name but a few
I'd like to think that coming to Southend helped his career and I for one have no problem with having players on loan who then go back to their parent club and get a good move on the back of the loan. It's a win/win as far as I can see
