![Who Was the Best Player: Paul Scholes, Frank Lampard or Steven Gerrard? [A detailed comparison]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/HLInG7oV3iI/mqdefault.jpg)
Doesn't matter if Scholes isn't your favourite player, because he's probably your favourite player's favourite player
Weird when he didn’t get one ballon dor vote
@@melvinadusei7208 I don't listen to ballon d'or, if Beckham in 99 and Henry in 03 didn't win it. I don't judge anything by balloon d'ors
Lets not pretend that Rio is impartial in this argument, dude shared the locker room with Scholes for years - of course he's going to pick him..
@@fuaddanial2029 he's not the only one that says it
@@littledanmcnamara1840 if so many says Scholes is the best then where are the Ballon D'or votes? yknow the players/coaches are the ones voting right?
All of the three are great all round midfielders. I always say that Scholes is an orchestrator with an out of this world technical ability. Lampard had an exceptional eye for goal and was a machine. Gerrard was prob the most versatile player I've ever seen, the X-Factor thing with Gerrard.. and Rio touched on this, its his ability to do the Spectacular and the Fantastic. He was named Captain Fantastic for a reason.
Rio is too humble to say it but him and sol campbell were incredible at the 2002 world cup! In an era where English defenders were downtrodden. They definitely played to their potential, the rest of the squad didn't
ashley cole doesn’t get the credit he deserves🤦♂️ probably the most consistent player we had
Scholes-dictator of the game. Amazing passer.
Gerrard-box to box engine and heartbeat of the team.
Lampard-Goalscoring machine with getting into the box and also amazing playmaker too.
What a disgenious simplistic description of Gerrard 🤦🏽
Perfectly out 👌🏽
Nobody's vision compares to Scholes, absolutely perfect centre mid.
U haven't watched Frank's Assists properly
Frank was a no 10.. Scholes was a no 8/6 depending on games... Now you cant say bruno and debryne have more goals and assists then kante, busquete so they are better
Xavi was better :)
@@sbsbarik5 u just said that
I didn't
Vision plz 🤣 only came near the end of his career .
Frank - most consistent goal scorer (arguably the hardest, and obviously the most important job to carry out in football).
Gerrard - most influential player, leader, athlete and all rounder midfielder.
Scholes - most natural talent.
All else is subjective taste and team allegiance clouded nonsense.
Ultimately, IMO, the player I would pay the most to watch live is Scholes.
also Scholes best vision and creativity.
Spot on
Mad. The guy was boring to watch. Basic mid.

@@AdamMcKola ah so no show recorded for airing 2day Adam ? Is Steven gone in sucking mode again
@@AdamMcKola surprised no mention from a club view of Quinton (when not injured lol) his long range was unbelievable, better accuracy that our scholezy, don't forget scholes for near the last 4/5 suffered from severe double vision problems 😞
@@fcunitedforever8677 no prem footy this week and no one wants a podcast about the international football 🙄
2:20 2002 World Cup rio was phenomenal he should give himself more credit and thats coming from a scouse red who hates utd.
I still find this baffling. Lampard who literally needed Essien,makelele, Ramires mikel to do his donkey work, gerrad who was finished at 32 while scholes won a midfield with cleverly and anderson ffs.
Not biased at all mate
Forget carrick too
He ain't biased mate facts speak for them selves
Talk about stats nothing else
@@liamslaney4921 brilliant shout. So underated bcz he didnt have a personality like gerrad and Lampard
Rio said, would Gerrald still have had that impact on a better team ?. Question should be asked could scholes and lampard have done what Stevie G did in those Liverpool teams 🤔🤔
Yes, Scholes would, Lamps would get you the goals......
@@pisceansith6915 No chance.
Any team Scholes played with would of been winners. I do t think we have won since he left
All 3 outstanding midfielders. For me of course i would say Scholes. One thing that should be noted, Chelsea and Liverpool managed to do well once Gerrard and Lampard left respectively. Since scholes absense, there’s not been any player that come and gone in our club that has filled that void. That should tell you he was a different player. We’ve found it really hard to replace him.
1. Scholes
2. Gerrard - just because he’s more of a complete midfielder imo. He helps attack gets a few goals and assists whilst helping with the defense, plus he’s a leader and more versatile than the two. He’ll leave everything on the line in a game. Tbf if people said Gerrard is better out of the 3, i wouldn’t necessarily complain and would understand.
3. Lampard - i love lamps, the midfielder that possessed the more attacking nature out of the 3. He’d get 20+ goals and 10+ assists. Icl i would love him on my team cuz when the strikers are down, he’d be that extra push to step up and you need that.
Love scholes. But our recruitment has been appalling tbf. Signing players all over the pitch and not recruiting a quality CM
Paul Scholes is my all time favorite footballer. The guy controls the tempo of a game, slows it down, quicken it up, dummy, long pass, short pass, shot... goal. As great as that United team was, everything went through Scholes; that should tell u how good he was!
Everything didn't go through Scholes though, that's an over exaggeration.
We used to score plenty goals via Neville-Beckham-Striker, or Giggs to striker, sometimes even Roy Keane surging forward.
Scholes was immense, but let's not get carried away.
Plus I know he was nicknamed sat nav, but for me Rooney had the real sat nav. Made my jaw drop multiple times and I used to play midfield, I was never the biggest fan of strikers. I think Scholes was probably an understated genius. You might not notice it. If I'm honest I always noticed Steven Gerrard.
@@immaculatedirtz8805 Scholes was the guy who found Giggs who then found people like RVN. Scholes dictated, you don't solely judge a CM on assists. His passing was unrivalled in the Prem and he could hit the crossbar from outside the stadium blindfolded if he wanted to. Everything did go through Scholes, which is why Ferguson brought him out of retirement to win another Premier League title. Don't talk about a player you haven't watched mate
@@systemerror7857 I used to play CM lol. I know you don't judge a midfielder solely on that and I didn't attempt to. I just said that what you were saying is an over-exaggeration.
Everything DID NOT go through Scholes. I'm a 42 year old man and I watched his whole career you numpty 🤣
MANY goals went through Scholes, but many did not. We had a team full of absolute G's! Beckham used to win multiple matches with free kicks. We had many routes to goal and not all of them went through Scholes. You're probably just a young lad regurgitating what he's been told.
@@systemerror7857 oh it would seem you're not even the original poster. Just arguing with me for no reason when you're not even right lol.
"Everything" is a very big word with a very specific meaning.
You probably also use words loosely. I do not have that problem.
I've never seen anyone control the game like Scholesy in the premier league. The only two other players that I've seen had that quality are Xavi and Iniesta.
They looked up to him aswell lol
Xavi & Iniesta are the two best midfielders of there era! Nobody comes close. The only one that comes close is Scholes
Pirlo was great too no?
Perlo, Nedved , Zidane, Viera, guty, saydorf
If that's the case you haven't watched football
Just on the part where Rio says that it's hard to know if Stevie would have performed better in a top team. Gerrards best seasons were when Liverpool had Suarez and Torres
I would say it's when he have Xabi and Masch
When he got Suarez, hes performance already declining by significant amount, he look great because it's Suarez that receive his end of the pass, don't forget prime Coutinho also make things easier for him
@@musclecat7910 gerrard carried both teams. You could say that any of these teams were carried by their striker counter part but that doesn’t take away from gerrard not having a complete team and carrying them for 15 years and basically winning Liverpool’s first champions league
Yeah but Scholes and Lampard played in teams with loads of world class players not just one
Thank you he would of stood out he had his best seasons in title challenges is a joke how disrespectful it is
If u love goals-Lampard
if u love highlights-Gerrad
If u love FOOTBALL-Scholes
Scholes - technically a natural genius, composed the game and created magic
Lampard - a machine, shooting, getting into the box time and time again from the midfield and finishing
Gerrard - a leader, would leave his heart and soul out on the pitch and carry a whole team with his passion, tackles or a crazy goal from outside the box
Gerrard wowed you the most. UNLESS you were a purist who liked understated technique (that was Scholes). Lampard wowed you at the end of the season when you looked at his direct goal contributions.
As a united fan I thought highly of Gerrard and Lampard. Gerrard for me, has always been above Lampard but in reality scholes Gerrard and Lampard are all completely different players. Gerrard was more of a viera keano type of player and Scholes was more like Pirlo and Xavi type of player. All of these players were brilliant but were complete different so you can’t even compare them.
Imagine a competent manager who could work all three into a midfield...
Good show guys 👍🏻 there was a sports physiologist Norwgine if i remember correctly it was with sky sports. he done a in depth write up about intelligent midfielders he named Scholes Lampard Pirlo and Gerrard. im sure you guys could find it very good read .
Let me tell you something when Scholes is on the pitch its his game. Lamps and Gerrard play football but Scholes owns football
biased
@@aviator-kn8zq but true
What does that even mean lmao.
This site is filled with 12 year olds.
@@Ajay-d oh sorry let me write it simply for you and your fellow 12 year olds. It means that's he's so good he controls the game. If he wants the match to be a fast paced counter attacking kinda game then it will be, if he wants it to be a slow game where his team keeps possession then that's what it will be. But for the other two they just rock up and play ball hoping it's a game that suits them
Liverpool fans say Gerrard
Chelsea fans say Lampard
Football fans say Scholes
More like united fans
Football fans say scholes, most football players do too.
@@benitotommassi5820 and most of those football fans turn out to be united fans coincidence maybe
@@jackdan7188 like Henry, Zidane, Xavi, Pele, Pirlo, Pep and Kroos? Are they all United fans?
@@jackdan7188 around ten percent of the earth's population are united fans (which is nuts) so, maybe. Even most non united fans I know say scholes, no contest.
Im a gunner and dislike Utd. Dam, Paul Scholes is up there for being the best midfielder we've ever seen in the premiership. He came out of retirement and dominated the midfield. Who does that??
I've been a United fan even before you were born, and I hate Arsenal, I am gonna wish you much respect for saying that😄😄😄
All great players. But all different types. But for me the most complete player is Gerrard he could do the lot. You could play him anywhere and he could do the job.
Welcome back adam mckola rio my man these videos are gold please dont stop it
Gerrard for me because he had the pace power and athleticism that the other 2 lads didn't have and he could do everything that Scholes and Lampard could do. I'm a Liverpool fan so maybe I'm bias but Gerrard really was outstanding in a weaker team than United and Chelsea at the time. When the going got tough Gerrard always rolled up his sleeves, a legend I'll never forget.
Big up Rio and co, really enjoying this channel only came across it a few weeks ago. Hopefully you could get an ex player on like you did with Ruud every month or second month or so. Great content, easy sub, thank you.
I agree with your argument apart that Gerrard had more about him compared to the other two, and based on that im fine with the assertation that Gerrard is the best, however i have to correct the statement that ''Gerrard could do what Scholes could do''.
Yes he had an eye for a hollywood pass that not many can pull off (that certainly Frank couldn't), but doing that once or twice a game is incomparable to what Scholes was doing from a passing perspective for over 10 years. Scholes was completely controlling the games tempo, he had the brain of a machine and knew exactly where everyone was at any moment.
Its abit like saying 'Pogba can do what Xavi did', just because he can ping a flashy 40 yard ball a few times. Theres abit more to it than that.
@@samwize28 Scholes had a wicked pass, no doubt , I also remember he had an unreal shot on him at times, he could whack it, volleys and everything and I completely get that he dictated the tempo for United but ye also had players effecting the tempo in different ways Keane charging about the place like a warrior every game and doing all the basics extremely well, Keane kept it simple on the ball and enabled the likes of Scholes to shine I get what you are saying to be fair but I also think you may be underrating Gerrards passing ability. I'd have Scholes over Lampard. Gerrard Scholes Lampard.
Gerrard was the focal point for you lot, was constantly fed the ball. In the prem he scored 120 goals after 743 shots. He shot so often, that he was bound to have an impressive scoring record. Now let's compare Scholes, he had 107 goals after only 193 shots in the prem. Scholes played 36,219 total minutes in his career. Gerrard played 46, 375, that's more than 10000 minutes over Scholes, yet the amount of goals they scored was similar. Scholes was the more consistent scorer, the stats back it up. His passing was on another level, Scholes constantly dictated games with his phenomenal passing range. Scholes was different gravy, will be remembered as one of the all time premier league greats. Slippy G is remembered for having one of the biggest bottle job moments in premier league history. Scholes > Gerrard
@@karl343 Scholes couldn't tackle,had asthma, couldn't run, he was an outstanding player though despite that. Gerrard had some of the most clutch goals you can score, cometh the man cometh the hour. I watched Gerrard week in week out bust his bollox for almost 2 decades just like United fans watched Scholes boss it.
Gerrard and Scholes will both be remembered as all time Premier League midfielder greats as will Viera and Keane. It's fine that you will remember Stevie G's slip,it's banter but Liverpool fans remember his for a hell of a lot more and don't define his career with a slip that anyone could have. To suggest that Stevie Gs legacy is defined by a slip tells me you didn't watch him enough. Liverpool fans will say Gerrard, United fans will say Scholes, standard.
Kieran B I agree about Scholes shortcomings, that’s something you definitely can’t say about Gerrard. What I will add though is Utd fans appreciate Scholes the same way Liverpool fans appreciate Thiago. They are smart enough to see through his flaws to see the talent that is there and what impact he truly has.
Loving these. Get the new one out
Simple fact of the matter is Gerrard isn't taking a game by the scruff of the neck if Scholes is dictating it
This^
You lot are funny 🤣 Gerrard is so clear
@@jamessmith4843 despite having far less goal involvements from open play than both Scholes and Lampard? Despite winning far less trophies?
Stevie did that with Xabi Alonso dictating - who was better at it than Scholes.
@@VituKhonje better at it than Scholes? Do me a favour
If you asked JT he’d say lampard if u asked carrager he’d say gerrard no surprise here
If you asked Vishnu, he'd say Johnny Sins.
Terry said Scholes when he was asked.
They did and still do classes on Paul Scholes' play in Ajax and Barcelona's academy's. I think that says it all. Scholes is a level above and it's not even close. He's your favourite midfielders favourite midfielder
Not trying to be mean, but how do you know mate ?
@@kundai.mutambara even Messi said they used to watch video of scholes in the la masia academy
@@tsa_03 Oh thanks, I didnt know that, interesting
England struggle on international level because of their choice of managers. Sven, Steve, Roy, Gareth... When is it going to end Robbie??
Capello?
Gerrard was easily the best all round player of the 3 . Zidane said at one point when he was in his pomp Gerrard was the best player in the world at the time .
If I ever had to get any player in the world to play for my life I’d count on him that’s coming from a Chelsea fan . All fantastic players though.
@@englishjames007 whatever Trevor. I know what I saw and he was better than the other 2 fine players . The other 2 may have won more , scored more goals , had a better volley etc.
But his all round game and skill set was better .
Amazing engine.
Very clever and tactically astute.
Fantastic shot.
Great passing range , awesome long pass.
Nasty in the tackle
Brave
The passion and determination alone should end this conversation.
Much more the complete player .
Gerrard all day bro!
How many titles did he win again sorry? You ask any of the most influential midfielders in world football and they mostly all say Scholes.
Gerrard is the best for me didn't play in the best of teams and carried that team a lot
Rio please can you do an interview with wazza ..I love the guy and you are great friends with him... He made me fall in love with football, It will be great 😭
Scholes was the most talented
Gerrard was the most complete
Lampard was the most efficient
Simple that's it. 💯💯
Rio shut up a lot of our fans here lol right at the end.
I'm a proper Utd fan but I give Gerrard all his credit. He was a wonderful player.
The most likely of the 3 to WOW you with Hollywood moments. Pure class. But 2nd to Rooney in that regard.
Rooney was THE English BOSS! Even Gerrard knows it.
That’s a short vid what happened to the end was cut off?? 😞
Where is the full vid?
Lampard is the best overall midfielder in Premier League history, goals, assists and longevity. He also holds the record for most consecutive games played by an outfield player in the Premier League. He was always fit and like Rio said 20 goals a season with double digit assists, he always made an impact and was clinical in front of goal.
But that doesn't make him the better midfielder. Isco scores more than Iniesta, is he better? Jordan Henderson probably has more goals than Modric, who is the better midfielder?
@@mandumeyandemufayo1960 I’ll tell you Scholes is the one who can be replicated in terms of dictating play and tempo (Kroos does it in another way) Who’s gonna replicate Lampard‘s consistency and goals?
@@raunaq96 who is gonna replicate the amount of trophies scholes won ? Alan shearer scored more goals than cantona does that make him a better player ? Imo he isn't but that's why it's the beautiful game we all have an pinion
so what lamps has better stats than zizou does does not make him better tho
Gerrard is untouchable and arguably the best CM of his generation.......Man literally carried a team for about a decade and brought them to places with his stunning goals and explosive moments
They're all class but I think the way to test it is this: 1) during that period if Gerrard was replaced by either Scholes or Lampard, would LFC have been as successful as they were? 2. Conversely, had Gerrard replaced either Lamps at Chelsea or Scholes at Man u, would those teams have been successful? The answer is 1)no and 2) yes without doubt
Thats a ridiculous way of looking at it for me. They've all played out their careers. You've seen everything they've done, the goals they've scored, assisted and games they've dominated. And you want to decide which was the best not by what they actually accomplished in their careers but by creating a "what if scenario" that puts one of the three at an advantage. Gerrard was the one who was able to show he could put a team on his back because he was in the weaker team where he was clearly the best player. You can't just say the others would never be able to do what he did because we didn't see them play in weaker teams, meaning they never got to showcase those attributes on a weekly basis. I could quite easily flip your argument and say could Gerrard do what the others did for Liverpool and Chelsea? No. Because he would've been surrounded by world class players and could no longer the "the man" that the team relied on. Similar to how Grealish thrived at Villa but is just another face in the crowd at City. I'm sure that wouldn't have been the case but I'm just flipping your argument to show how it makes no sense. Fair enough if you think Gerrard was the best of the three but the way you've argued it isn't right at all.
@@Anonymous-xr8hx Your greatness is elevated when you're surrounded by greatness. Gerrard carried an average Liverpool side for 10+ years. Gerrard could've been the goat of midfielders had he gone to Real Madrid in 2009 when they wanted him badly. He refused and chose loyalty. Look what happened to Modric! Gerrard is another Totti, they don't come around often in football.
@A J lol not necessarily. Some players thrive off being the man. Look at Hazard at Chelsea vs Madrid. Gerrard was an incredible player and I'm sure he would've been just as good for Madrid. But you can't just make stuff up like he would've been elevated to a new level. It never happened it's all a what if. You can only judge him by what he actually did at Liverpool and how good he was for them.
@@Anonymous-xr8hx But that's a very one dimensional way to judge a football player. Let's say Scholes played for Liverpool and Gerrard played for United...we wouldn't even be having this conversation. Also, Gerrard had an elite level mentality, unlike Hazard who was extremely lazy. It's sad because Gerrard never reached his true full potential like Lampard and Scholes were able to and he still competed with them!
@A J but that's bullshit. Gerrard did reach his full potential. We saw it. We saw his whole career. That's like saying Maradona didn't reach his full potential because he spent most of his career at Napoli. The player did what the player did. If their career was ruined by injuries in some way then fair enough but Gerrard played regularly football for almost 20 years. We saw his entire career and that's what we use to judge him. You can't arbitrarily pick him out and say he would've been better in X team so that elevates him whereas this other player would've been worse in another team so that brings him down a few legs. I can give you the reverse of your argument. Lampard spent his entire time at Chelsea surrounded by superstars and he stood out above them all. Claude Makelele, Michael Essien, Ballack etc. Not only did Lampard never lose his place but he was the main man despite all those other stars. People say Gerrard carried his team which makes him so good but Lampard and Scholes never got the opportunity to carry their teams. For all we know they would've done the same or better. Maybe Lampard wouldn't have slipped.
You see how you can use hypotheticals to twist a narrative any way you want. It's best to just judge them by how good they were on the pitch. Not like I'm underrated Gerrard by doing that either. Still think he was better than Scholes and on par with Lampard.
8:30 you can add Thierry Henry to that list. And it's from MNF as well..
Scholes all day! He could find a player with a blindfold on 🙌🏻 Different gravy ⚽️
How does that make him the best 🤦🏽
Where/when is the full show?
Scholesy doesn’t need to hang about. Sat nav don’t need no calibrating 😂
What episode is this from ?
What happened why so short ...
I realise it's an old clip now
Ooh man Stop it they are talent so just enjoy them and thanks rio for conclusion
Scholes was probably the most technically gifted, Lampard was the best goal scorer but for me gerrard was the most complete midfielder of the 3 & the best leader on the pitch you could ever ask for
This the truth. It’s like ppl forget leadership and true greatness when comparing legends of the game, they only talk about stats and skills.
Stevie G is 👑
@@ashwincheekala1566 stats can definitely be overrated!! If I was playing in a cup final tomorrow then Stevie G would be the man I’d want to drive my team
It’s a shame no manager could get all 3 of them to work together for England 🏴
I seen a game against spurs, when dembele was running us ragged. He was destroying us. Spurs were winning the game and scholes was older, maybe his last season. But he came on either at half time or after and I’ve never ever seen even until this day, a player come on and change the game like that. He didn’t score or assist I don’t think, but he ran the midfield on his own. He was one touch passing around players moving into space and getting it back, being completely press resistant and then firing balls to the wing or to the strikers. He completely change the tempo of the game and the result too. He made spurs go from pressing us in our own half and constantly breaking on us, to pinning them back in their own box. Best performance I’ve ever seen from a midfielder.
Dembele was an amazing player for Spurs. Unbelievable. Scholes' ability to dictate the tempo of games has never really been replaced by us, he was that good.
Scholes scholes scholes ...... the conductor English finest midfielder. Gerrard bit headless at times but on his day a driving force /warrior .
What a disgenious way to describe Gerrard 🤦🏽
Headless? He was the leader of Liverpool he was the head. Literally says then that Liverpool passed the ball to him mainly because they all knew he was the best player in the team and worked around that
He was tbh he over hit so many passes. He alwags wanted ram passes into ppl.
It’s a damn shame a player like #Scholesy never lifted a Ballon d’Or
Lol behave and get off your high hourse will you, the lad didnt get a single vote for a Ballon D'or in all of his his career let alone win it lmao
@@haychhh6809 Yea.. i dont think he's ever been united player of the year. Not a united fan, so cmiiw
Because he didn't deserve lol
Please do an interview with Henry!
If only that England team played 433.. Gerrard and scholes playing anchor roles and can bomb forward to support lampard... have becks whipping in crosses and Owen in the middle and Rooney out left
still got david james in goal.. or an old david seaman.... or robert green..... rooney on the left only worked when he was interchanging with the other fowards..... owen was a poor mans lineker after he lost his speed and would have hindered rooney.
Still wont be anywhere near spain
On paper that team should win a World Cup.
Where is the CDM? My midfield would be hagreaves , Scholes , lempard.
I'd have actually scrapped the 4 in the back and played with 352. Midfield: Beckham at RWB. Gerrard (Right, covering Beckham), Scholes (Sitting), Lampard (Left and Advanced). Ashley Cole at LWB.
I think I would pick Lampard the amount of goals Lampard he got from midfield and he could pass tackle free kicks etc too. All 3 are the best British midfielders in the last 30 years and they lasted they managed to keep their form through out their entire careers what a lot of players can't do.
Rio Adam and Joel 💥
When's the full vid to this out?..An where's Howson...
snippet from one of the past shows
Very hard to compare different players. Not enough talk about defense, heading and longevity which might be deciding stuff.
A team of 11 Scholes v 11 Lampards v 11 Gerrards. Who wins? There's your answer.
People who say Gerrard is better because of his individual stats don’t know Scholes scored more non penalty goals than Gerrard...
Gerrard big game player
@@aaronshone30 Scholes scored in an FA Cup final, scored winners against Liverpool, scored 20+ in a season, scored one of the best goals I’ve seen to send United to the Champions League final. This myth that Gerrard was such a massive big game player because he shouted at people for 10 minutes of a Champions League final needs to stop.
No it's that Gerrard had no weaknesses, he grabbed games by the scruff the neck in a weak Liverpool team n won them big trophys if he had better players around him they would've won way more trophys. But they are all different styles of midfielders but uf I want a box to box I go Gerrard if I want a dictator it's scholes
Gerrard stepped up in europe thats where it counts
Scholes looked better coz his team constantly won
How did we not win a major tournament!!!!
Where is the rest of this?
“You can get someone who does what Gerrard does” okayyy
Yes, Rooney
Yeah... Roy of the Rovers
Yes you can
People who appreciate the art football would pick scholes but unfortunately we live in a era where everyone wants to be accountants and gather up stats etc to front their arguments
Facts mate too many fans care abt stats if that was the case back then a lot of top players wouldn't be rated according to stats
Exactly which is why Scholes is the best out the 3. None of them 3 tho come close to Iniesta at all. I would say tho Scholes and Xavi are even but Iniesta is on another level!
All 3 are different players. Scholes was definitely the best of the lot he should be compared to the likes of pirlo and xavi of recent years.
Shut up Xavi and Pirlo🤦🏾🤦🏾. He can't even lace his boots
Xavi lightyears ahead of all you’ve mentioned with him.
@@neelante Back in 2012 Xavi said and I quote; "Scholes is the best midfielder of the last 20 years".
@@-ingar- and guess what ?? He said thd same bout Gerrard Zidane etc and for ballon dor vote he never voted him in his top 3 how bout that. Anyone with sense unless there man u fans knows he levels below.
So much contradiction in this comment and Gerrard was better than Pirlo so that don't even make sense
Over a season Scholes contributes more to a team then frank and Gerrard they might get more goals and assists but Scholes will change a game and have a bigger and more consistent impact
Says who you're literally pulling that statement out your ass and as a person who's watched every damn game Gerrards played I can prove that to be nonsense
@@jayanthony2414 if you watched Gerrard every game firstly your a scouser therefore biased to Gerrard and secondly you can’t of seen Lampard and Scholes every game hence can’t judge them fairly
Still waiting for a comeback by the way
@@darakenny5408 Yes I can because I'm a football fan that watches any football whether its to see what my rivals are doing or just enjoy a game I've watched Lampard since West ham Scholes and Gerrard are different types of players Gerrard couldn't do what Scholes did and Scholes couldn't do what Gerrard did to say Scholes brings more to the team is just absolute nonsense though its physically impossible Gerrard literally week in week out dragged teams would dominate the entire field world class defensively and in attack
In the first half of Scholes career he got as many goals sometimes more . People just remember him as a deep player,he started as a number ten really and box to box "Scholes means goals" was the chant! He could of played Lampard role forever but he wanted to be more involved like Keane did
y'know da guys y'know da vibez
Y'know the trio
Return of the Mac!
When some reporter said to Edgar Davidz that he was the best in the world Davidz response was 'no it's Paul Scholes"
Nuff said 😎
In the last 30 Scholes is the second best English player and 4th all time behind Sir Booby Charlton, Bryan Robson, and Gazza then Paul Scholes
I think people overlook how good Lampard was. People say Lampards goals came cause of the players around him but didn’t Scholes not have an amazing team around him as well ?
Lampard could strike a ball with both feet, had an incredible range of passing, he had decent feet (not amazing dribbling), he could tackle, very intelligent player, was good in the air had amazing positional awareness, like Lampard wasn’t just goals his allround game was elite
Imo, I think Gerrards the best out of the three, then I’d go Lampard then Scholes. It’s not a massive gap between them but I think that’s how I’d rank them.
05:30. Haha. Let's see the arsenal fan say the same thing about Henry, who shined in Wenger's arsenal team that played for him.
Deep breath, here goes...A lot of fans on social media that love to compare the three are either too young to know what they're talking about or it's just plain simple bias, letting club allegiances colour their opinions. All of a sudden we're going to try and rewrite history as if the man that Ancelloti, Ferguson, Wenger, Mourinho and Lippi all tried to sign, some on multiple occasions, was "overrated" lol. Unlike Scholes and Lampard, Gerrard never once had the best team in the league, his club let him down. Closest he came was 08/09, but they were up against one of the greatest Untied sides we had, if not the greatest, of all time. Most of Gerrad's career Liverpool were the 3rd-7th best team (sorry Liverpool fans) and for most of that, I'd say 90% of the time, he carried donkeys. Can you imagine Scholes or Lampard ever having to play in midfield alongside the likes of Christian Poulsen, Charlie Adam, Nick Barmby, Salif Diao, Alberto Aquilani, Igor f*cking Biscan, Jonjo Shelvey, Joe Allen, Jay Spearing, Boudewijn Zenden, Joe Allen, a Jamie Redknapp towards the end of his career, Mohamed Sissoko, a 32 year old Paul Ince, Lucas Leiva, Danny Murphy, a young pre Klopp Jordan Henderson for the overwhelming majority of their career? How many of them would get into those United or Chelsea title winning/contending teams? And that's just the midfielders. All three were incredible players, but for what was asked of him, it's Gerrad who did more with less. Would have loved to have seen him playing for a few years in a world beating side, Juve, Milan, Chelsea, Madrid or even us at UTD! lol. I mean, they all at one stage or another wanted him. Loyalty got him love and adoration from his own supporters, not many medals and a lot of butt hurt football fans of rival clubs sadly.
Even as an arsenal fan I’ll always love Gerrard there was just something special with him
David Silva is also in the league of these 3 players
You'll notice the lads are talking about English players, not Spanish ones.
Scholes diffrent gravy ,you had to watch him week in week out . Xavi insists pirlo Scholes that's the level
No he isnt
The Rondos............................Part 2?
finally Mckola stepping up levels
Say what you want but none of them had to carry a team like Gerrard did.
England could’ve played a 3-1-3-2. With either Gerrard or Scholes at that 1 spot in front of the defense but it’s not a position for a defender but a role player.
Guys where’s the rest of the video, or is this weeks only 12 minutes long ?
It's actually funny how they compare the three. They're completely different players, Scholes and Lampard are worlds away with Gerrard being somewhat of a combination - not as good in any one particular area but fantastic in ever area.
That's a silly way of saying Gerrad was the more complete midfielder lol
@@tubiviral9093 He had more tools to his game but those tools weren't as effective as the other two in their specialities. You can draw whatever conclusion you want from it but it is what it is.
@@mattj1829 In what way can you conclude they "weren't as effective"? And what tools exactly are you talking about?
Scholes was very similar to both at different points in his career. He played off the striker for a while then box to box and then deep lying.
@@tubiviral9093 Gerrard could never control the game like scholes and he wasn't as efficient Infront of goal as Lampard.
Scholes has got to be no.1. He could do everything Lampard and Gerrard could do but Gerrard and Lampard were unable to do what Scholes could do which is control a game from minute 1 to minute 90 and that’s what wins you titles CONSISTENTLY.
The only thing these statpadders talk about is goals but like Rio said when Scholes was playing no.10 he was packing 20 a season. Also, if midfielders were judged on goals only then the likes of Zidane and Xavi will be bums so it’s Scholes hands down. Every neutral footballer has said the same thing so it’s a non debate for me.
1. Scholes
2. Gerrard
3. Lampard
Talk about stats nothing else. Stats show success of a player
No ...
great debate but shouldnt even be a debate lol. sat nav everyday of week and every other sunday
Fully 25 seconds of ads before the video begins is becoming commonplace on You Tube. It’s a shambles for a community driven website.
Lampard is the GOAT 🙌
Rio I respect you but stevie g got 20+ goals - 2005-06 , 2007-08 and 2008/09 and all those years he played attacking midfield which shows if he played Frank Lampard role he would score more - you even said yourself the year Scholes scored 20+ was when he played no.10 to ruud in 2002/3 so I believe it depends on where they played
1. Scholes
2. Lampard
3. Gerrard
Correct
No
@@aviator-kn8zq yes
This is sickening. Gerrard is co clear of them.
@@jamessmith4843 don't talk nonsense did he ever win Premier league??
1 of them won it all and dominanted the league for over 15 years! There's Scholes then the rest.
Lampard won everything and have most goals scored by any midfielder that's it
@@deathadder4999 11 trophies to 25!! Hence the words AND Dominanted for over 15 years
@@deathadder4999 oh and 40+ penalties scored to scholes 1!! So goals are a lot closer from open play. 106 scholes to 130 lampard
Unfair comparison really as Lampard mostly played in a five man midfield, Gerrard and Scholes didn’t usually have that protection.
Gerrard and Scholes don't play the same way as Lampard and speaking of protection scholes got enough protection from keane and gerrard had reliable defense behind him at one point. Lampard had to do all the attacking plays by himself
As a Chelsea fan, i would say Gerrard.
When’s the whole episode dropping, much prefer the whole sauce rather than a taster...
1.Scholes 2.Lampard 3.Carrick
Scholes > Lampard > Gerrard
That is the correct answer.
Scholes, no question
Gerrard, easy. All three are great, but Gerrard is a leader and could pull miracles unlike the other two
And yet he couldn't pull PL miracle 😉
This shouldn’t be a question. It shouldn’t be Gerrard, Lampard or Scholes. It’s Gerrard, Xavi or Iniesta. Gerrard is on a different level to Lampard and Scholes. Scholes could control a game and Lampard could score and assist. Gerrard could do both of them but so much more. Gerrard’s best team is worse than either of Lampard or Scholes’ worst team. Gerrard was faster, stronger, better technically, better passer, better leader, better tackler and a better big game player. He flipped games on their head and carried horrific teams for years. For me Gerrard will always be in a different league these two
Even though i hate Chelsea and i like Liverpool but lampard is a better version of Gerard..........this is not a debate it's very clear.... even both nation and club team recognize it
Every united and england player of that era always picks scholes as the best even Thierry Henry and John Terry said he was unplayable
that england team should have been a 4-3-3. with scholes as the pivot and gerrard and lampard ahead of him
Scholes - Gerrard ..........Lampard
Not even watched it yet and I know he’s picking Scholes, ex team mate obviously He’s picking him
Scholesy ginger ninja
