Honourable mentions to Fernandinho, Carrick, Xabi Alonso and Modric.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Good to see the appreciation for the midfielders who have more defensive duties and not big stat getters in terms of assists and goals.

I find it weird you laughed at Scholes but saw no issue with Carrick.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Didn’t even notice Carrick. It was more that he put Scholes at number one, when he’s not even close to being the best.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He won titles without Keane. Not sure how you can claim he’s nowhere near but you have a player that’s had zero success in the league?

He didn't win titles. United won titles.

That just it, in a list of all time PL CM’s, his number 1 is the only one in his list never to win a PL title 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

He’s a very good player, but he wasn’t good enough to lead his team to a title. It would have been ‘great’ if he did.

He’s picked a player as his number one premier league midfielder in a list of 10, where all nine following him have actually won a PL title

Do you think Scholes would have won the PL if you swapped him and Gerrard? It’s a terrible argument to use.

What I find amusing is that in Liverpool folklore the Istanbul game is accredited to Gerrard, like he dragged his team to victory yet all the failed attempts at winning the PL is put down to him being surrounded by inferior players

You have to say that considering your original statement. But I find it hard to believe you actually mean it. It’s the laziest argument out there, with no logic.

Love how offended scousers get at someone having a differing opinion to them when they all have facking Gerrard at number 1

Believe it or not, a guy who was an integral part of the most dominant team in PL history might, just might, be up there with the best.

That was an individual game, not an entire season. I find it amusing that needs to be explained....

Love how disagreeing with something leads to being labelled as offended.

So to recap
Winning - Good - Gerrard
Not winning - Bad - Teammates

No soft lad. You’re trying to liken an individual game to an entire season when measuring how much influence an individual can have over the outcome.

So over a full season he wasn’t as influential as other CM’s then?

Cheers for clearing that up

You’re getting embarrassing now.

Taking into consideration; stats, ability, contribution to winning, longevity and leadership, I’d have to say Lampard would be #1

This is incorrect, he holds the record for most team of the season appearances.

Actually, this makes perfect sense. Why is it amusing?

Scholes at no. 1 is crazy. Top 10 is fine though.
