Gerrard over Scholes? Behave.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I went for the better players in my team.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Clearly not. Scholes wins you titles. Gerrard slips up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No. Teams win titles. Players win individual awards which Gerrard has loads of and Scholes few. Scholes was never even nominated for balon d'or, European player of the year etc. There's a reason why and it's only United fans, after his elevation post retirement admittedly, that dont understand this. He was nowhere near Gerrard's level. Great player but not one of the best.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not though. Just read what Henry, Zidane and Xavi all say. Guariola said he's the one player he's love at Barca under their best days too.
It's not just us. Sorry. Gerrard was top player but Scholesy was better. As was Iniesta n Zidane who didn't score as many goals as Gerrard either. Still better.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah yes those fake quotes that everybody keeps pulling from nowhere without a source. The same players quoted saying similar things about Gerrard. All post retirement about Scholes after his elevation. So why didnt they vote for him when he played? After all these awards were voted for by his peers?
You'll never accept it such was his elevation but think back to the time he played, he was nowhere near Keane and Gerrard was as good as Keane at the things he did best but better at other things which Keane couldn't do. A true all rounder.

Keane dominated gerrard nearly every time they played against each other. No way was he better. Gerrard excelled in an average team. He was a bit of the Roy of the rovers. Hollywood Steve loves to take the plaudits but no way was he better than scholes or Keane
"They" is Liverpool fans
But don't worry, Hamman is German and not Scouse so it's okay to rewrite history and downplay his part in Istanbul and just say it was all down to Stevie me

No he didn't, they had great battles they were when Gerrard was in his early 20s. United simply had a better team. It doesn't mean every individual player was better.
Even Fergie agrees Gerrard was better than Scholes before his bitter quote in his book as he couldn't sign him.
“If you were looking for the player you would replace Keane with, it would be Gerrard, without question. He has become the most influential player in England, bar none. More than Vieira. Not that Vieira lacks anything, but I think that Gerrard does more for his team than Vieira does, and has way more to his game.
"I’ve watched him quite a lot. To me, Gerrard is Keane. Everywhere the ball is, he seems to be there. He’s got that unbelievable engine, desire, determination. Anyone would love to have Gerrard in their team.”

Scholes was the key man in a title winning machine, what a player. I feel privileged to have been fortunate enough to watch him play for my team.

I will guarantee fergie would not have replaced scholes with gerrard
Liverpool at a push might get Gerrard and Suarez on the bench, but rashford will probably replace Suarez in time, don't forget Pogba replacing Gerrard

Fake? Hahahaha. Afraid not. They can be found by a clever invention called Google.
You lot remember Gerrard more fondly because he was your Roy of the rovers. He was your only bright light until Suarez briefly and now Salah.
Scholes wasn't needed to win us games every week. We had other great players to do that anyway. However he was the orchestrator. Absolute joy watching him play for us. Greatest midfielder we've probably ever had along with Sir Bobby.
Scholes just did everything a little bit better than anyone else could.
Except tackling. He was bobbins at tackling.

I guess this is what is commonly know as "Elevation post retirement"
Many, many Liverpool fans put that result down to Hamman, some even credit Carragher with it
But the Andy Gray brigade will I guess always kiss Gerrard's bum hole

It's supposed to mean when we beat Liverpool this weekend, I hope our players remember to tweet Liverpool forward and cocky little nobhead Sadio Mane, and ask what his thoughts are
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Did he say something?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, sending stupid tweets after United lost to PSG
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think Sadio would be amused that it’s rattled you this much

----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not though. Just read what Henry, Zidane and Xavi all say. Guariola said he's the one player he's love at Barca under their best days too.
It's not just us. Sorry. Gerrard was top player but Scholesy was better. As was Iniesta n Zidane who didn't score as many goals as Gerrard either. Still better.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah yes those fake quotes that everybody keeps pulling from nowhere without a source. The same players quoted saying similar things about Gerrard. All post retirement about Scholes after his elevation. So why didnt they vote for him when he played? After all these awards were voted for by his peers?
You'll never accept it such was his elevation but think back to the time he played, he was nowhere near Keane and Gerrard was as good as Keane at the things he did best but better at other things which Keane couldn't do. A true all rounder.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Keane dominated gerrard nearly every time they played against each other. No way was he better. Gerrard excelled in an average team. He was a bit of the Roy of the rovers. Hollywood Steve loves to take the plaudits but no way was he better than scholes or Keane
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No he didn't, they had great battles they were when Gerrard was in his early 20s. United simply had a better team. It doesn't mean every individual player was better.
Even Fergie agrees Gerrard was better than Scholes before his bitter quote in his book as he couldn't sign him.
“If you were looking for the player you would replace Keane with, it would be Gerrard, without question. He has become the most influential player in England, bar none. More than Vieira. Not that Vieira lacks anything, but I think that Gerrard does more for his team than Vieira does, and has way more to his game.
"I’ve watched him quite a lot. To me, Gerrard is Keane. Everywhere the ball is, he seems to be there. He’s got that unbelievable engine, desire, determination. Anyone would love to have Gerrard in their team.”
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I will guarantee fergie would not have replaced scholes with gerrard

Liverpool at a push might get Gerrard and Suarez on the bench, but rashford will probably replace Suarez in time, don't forget Pogba replacing Gerrard

Gerrard over Scholes? Behave.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I went for the better players in my team.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Clearly not. Scholes wins you titles. Gerrard slips up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No. Teams win titles. Players win individual awards which Gerrard has loads of and Scholes few. Scholes was never even nominated for balon d'or, European player of the year etc. There's a reason why and it's only United fans, after his elevation post retirement admittedly, that dont understand this.

Fake? Hahahaha. Afraid not. They can be found by a clever invention called Google.
You lot remember Gerrard more fondly because he was your Roy of the rovers. He was your only bright light until Suarez briefly and now Salah.
Scholes wasn't needed to win us games every week. We had other great players to do that anyway. However he was the orchestrator. Absolute joy watching him play for us. Greatest midfielder we've probably ever had along with Sir Bobby.

Scholes just did everything a little bit better than anyone else could.
Except tackling. He was bobbins at tackling.

"They" is Liverpool fans
But don't worry, Hamman is German and not Scouse so it's okay to rewrite history and downplay his part in Istanbul and just say it was all down to Stevie me
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's you trying to rewrite history. Gerrard actually did get MOTM.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I guess this is what is commonly know as "Elevation post retirement"
Many, many Liverpool fans put that result down to Hamman, some even credit Carragher with it
But the Andy Gray brigade will I guess always kiss Gerrard's bum hole

It's supposed to mean when we beat Liverpool this weekend, I hope our players remember to tweet Liverpool forward and cocky little nobhead Sadio Mane, and ask what his thoughts are
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Did he say something?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, sending stupid tweets after United lost to PSG
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think Sadio would be amused that it’s rattled you this much

Clearly you are some feckwit who hardly ever watched Scholes play. He was fantastic and in most united fans view one of the finest midfielders we have ever had

So brilliant that Fergie even replaced him with Michael Carrick.
