Yes but idiots look at the goals and assists and base that on lampard and Gerrard being better. Scholes dictated games, he was a main reason United won so many titles

That City game, bar the mistake he made, he actually helped United to win. Everyone was losing their heads, yet Scholes soon settled into the old routine and just controlled the game from midfield. I think his pass completion rate was 97% and it remained in the 90s all season. If United had won the league - and remember it only came down to goal difference - he'd have been a massive part in that. He was the Football Writers 3rd best Player of the Season and that was on the basis of only a few months' performances! Legend.

@martyleyeti 3 жыл бұрын

Van Persie was talking in an interview once, saying something like : Scholes entered the pitch and then the passes started to arrive... it sums it up all. He had one of the best passing rate ever. Very accurate, very few mistake, zero stupid risk taken. He was good in interceptions, sometimes hard on the man, but his passing game was simply outstanding. As an Arsenal fan, I think he is the most emblematic symbol of that Ferguson era. Esp. bc he won the title again after his come back, which was the last title Man U won

People go on about Scholes' personality being the reason he wasn't noticed. Not being funny, but Gerrard and Lampard were two of the most boring personalities in football, so I don't really get that argument. All three are quite intelligent in the media and give insightful views, but as players, they were normally pretty boring off the pitch, apart from one time when Gerrard punched a DJ.
