Got into an argument with some of our gooner counterparts as I claimed Scholes has greater vision and technical ability than Bergkamp. The only area of the game in which Bergkamp could possibly claim to have the edge is close control. In everything else, Scholes far exceeds him. You need only listen to Zidane, Edgar Davids, Figo, ronaldinho and so many others and their praise for him to realise that Paul Scholes at the peak of his powers was on another level entirely.
Anyway I'd like to put it to a vote:
5 stars for Scholes
1 Star for Bergkamp
Scholes vs Bergkamp

Bergkamp is overrated. Was poor in Seria A and went missing in missing in most European games.

Man Utd logic:
Bergkamp gets voted 3rd best player in the world in both 1993 & 1997 by managers, PFA player in 1997 by his peers but its irrelevant cos u cant judge a player on individual honours!
Scholes gets lauded by a few of his peers and that means he's better
You couldnt make it up

============================================
Shevchenko was poor in England but honestly in world football, who is regarded as being a better striker Shevchenko or RVN?!?!?
I know the real answer to that question, i just wondered what the average Man Utds fan thinks

I haven't given an opinion on who's better.as far as I can remember. I was simply responding to the wum list of players you rated higher
Seriously, if you think Jay Jay was a better player than Paul Scholes, you need to find another sport to watch
Berkhamp and Scholes both brilliant
