"But I don’t think Scholes could do what Stevie did at Liverpool."

True. I don't think Scholes could have gone through his whole career without winning at least one league title
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yet he says in the same piece that Scholes is the best player he has ever played with.

I’m sure Scholes will settle for his league winners medals over some quotes from ex players
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hahahah


Mambinator how bored are you?

Scholes was great at dribbling with his left foot, and shooting with his right

Gerrard was good with both feet, just ask anyone he tackled

You've flipped it. Nice one.

You conveniently left out the bit where Rooney says Scholes is the best he’s played with.

I'm not bored saan, this is serious business!

Wasn't even a debate really.

I expected this to be different but I guess it's the same sheet as always.

United fans coming out with "what has he won?" when judging a player. An old classic.

My masterpiece was better where Scholes admitted it himself:

To be honest the debate should have been settled when Scholes was on camera nibbling his daughter's toes

The Lampard, Gerrard, Scholes debate is ended by the fact that Ferguson and Jose wanted to sign Gerrard and have the other two as decent bench options.

Also, this.

Fergie only wanted Gerrard as Quinton Fortune’s replacement

Scholes is also a failed striker, a failed number 10 and a failed midfielder. Started upfront and forced all the way back during his career progression and ended up "controlling the game from deep".

Also failed for England and bottled it when Gerrard and Lampard turned up so retired early.

People who say Gerrard is better are just living in the past. Yes he may have been better back when they were playing. But time moves on, since they both retired, Scholes became the better player. Present>past.

Hey OP needs to include all of Scholes stats. The stats that count

The question should be who is the better player, Rooney or Zidane?

Also bottled it as a manager and couldn't even handle lower league pressure.

It's true. Scholes has really come on in leaps and bounds since his retirement. Most improved player of the last decade.

This is referred to as the scholes paradox

Also apparently there’s a picture of him at the Nou camp further enhancing his reputation since retirement
