Yeah worked out well didn't it.... Other two were world class and I'd have taken either at United but Scholes was on another planet.

Stevie and Frank were great when the right players played beside them. The right players were never English though. (They were good otherwise but not great).

Are you really going to pursue that line you were going down yesterday that all the English players you named were only good cause they had a good foreign lad beside them  ;D

If you want an honest opinion on who the best English midfielder was of that generation ask Zidane, Xavi or Inesta, players who dominated European club midfield through the 2000/2010's.
I tend to think of myself as a one man wolfpack...

You don't stay in the engine room of a top team for 12/13 years by being good. Fantastic player was Scholes, a decent shout for best English player in the Premier League era.
Couldn't lace Lampards boots let alone Gerrards. And that's only two players off the top of my head. Not even close  ;D

This is why it's a pointless argument. I'd have Gerrard slightly ahead of Scholes. Then Lampard.
The honest truth is that there was little between them and you could make an arguement for either of the 3.

Or the manager who had to manage all 3?

He was the only one who had to make a choice between them. Regardless as I said, there's little between the 3 of them. And a case could be made for either. As said personally I'd have Gerrard out in front. But I support Liverpool so prob saw more of him than Scholes. So accept I may have a bias. But this claim

He was a nasty little bugger. The tackling was a big laugh in the game but some were downright nasty. Illiterate so and so also, talks like hes got a moutful of marbles

Edit - walked out on his country too just because he couldnt get his favourite position. Wasnt good enough to dislodge stevie or frank. Took lessons from Keane on that one id say
Stevie and Frank put together couldnt lace his boots or Keanes ffs.

Is pure nonsense.

Gerard was a serial choker. Never did it on the big stage. When the pressure came on he slipped. Not a big game player. A fraud.
