Zidane never mentioned Gerrard to my knowledge he said this:
When once asked “what does it feel like to be the best player in the world?” Zidane reportedly replied: “I don’t know, ask Paul Scholes.”
Which is nonsense, as Zidane was clearly far superior to scholes. I think Zidane was being modest with that comment, but it does speak volumes in how high scholes was rated. I don’t think Zidane ever commented on SG.

Clearly you think wrong...
'Zinedine Zidane believes Liverpool's Steven Gerrard is currently the best player in the world, eclipsing Lionel Messi of Barcelona and Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo.'

Former United striker Sheringham, who played alongside all three players during his career, believes Gerrard is the greatest of the trio – despite his relative lack of major silverware when compared to Lampard to Scholes.
In a clip posted on the PFA's TikTok account, Sheringham said: "I'm going to go for Steven Gerrard.
"I know he didn't win the league as a player but I think he was probably the best single player of his era over a 20-year span.
"I know the Manchester United boys won't be happy but I just felt that he could do everything.
"He could run, he could tackle, he could score goals, he could head the ball, he could defend, he could do everything.
"You put him in any position on the football pitch and he would be the man."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree with that. But just as an attacking mid he perhaps wasn't the best. But as Teddy says he could play any position , Paul couldn't
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sort of a jack of all trades but master of none, every team needs a utility man
