elrony: It's only losers that call all individual awards, polling booth awards. Gerrard was huge in Epl, despite his team not winning it. He was in Epl team of the year for 6 consecutive years. |

Expert17: I also have reservations on Beckham's but when you remember what he did in Epl you can't but let it pass. Epl top assist provider for 3 seasons, Epl team of the season 4 times. Bend it like Beckham. |

airmark: And when Xavi was asked who was the best player he had seen in 20 years, whose name did he mention? Player of the season award is a popularity contest. Scholes was a ginger, camera shy, didn’t give a fück about granting interviews to journos and pundits who drive the narrative of who to give the award. Is it not illogical that a player who couldn’t win one league title in about 18 years to be inducted into the ball of fame? Paul Scholes was the reason United won all those titles. It’s not a team achievement. He retired and he was brought back again to win it in SAF’s last season. Scholes was everything Gerrard dreamt to be and never was. Only idiöts would put Gerrard ahead of Scholes. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Illimitable: This means nothing. Xavi is an individual like Ronaldinho that called Lampard the best player ever to play in EPL. Their opinions are theirs, not the governing body's. Illimitable: You can be a shy player but your outstanding performances would definitely attract awards. Ngolo Kante will laugh at your 'camera shy' excuses. Illimitable: No. Gone were the days people were deceived by players hiding under team's achievements to raise shoulder. Modric didn't win the last world cup but he was honoured for being outstanding individually more than those in the team that won it. Gerrard was top assists provider in Epl , i am not sure Scholes topped in assists even in Man utd in one season in his 20 seasons in Epl. Illimitable: This must be a joke. Take away Beckham, Giggs, Cole, Yorke, from that squad that dominated, Scholes would have been sold to Fulham. Take away Ronaldo, Tevez and Rooney, Scholes would have been left with his long sideways passes amounting to nothing like Hamas rockets. Gerrard and Lampard retired Scholes from the national team for a reason. Only dolts would query Gerrard's induction in the hall of fame because his team didn't win Epl. 11 Likes |

Nemanja Matić is José Mourinho's midfield priority at AS Roma. He is believed to be worth under €10m. #mufc would now have no problem in him being sold #mulive [cds, @Sport_Witness] |

airmark: Xavi is a central midfielder - he would know. Xavi isn’t the only one that had Scholes as the best English midfielder of all time. If I put quotes here, you would run away. It’s a tired topic. airmark: Football reporting wasn’t wall to wall like we have these days when Scholes was at his peak. Who’s Kante? airmark: Modric won the CL and also took a very average Croatia team to the final of a World Cup. His achievement in 2018 was unparalleled apart from Varane. Varane plays for France - who are expected to win big things anyway. So Modric got all the accolades deservedly. airmark: That’s the point. Nobody was counting assists when Scholes was at his peak. airmark: Yet when the greatest manager of all time was asked the number of world class players he managed, SAF mentioned Scholes and Ronaldo. He didn’t mention all those bums on your list. airmark: Scholes won it without these ones in 1999. Another ridiculous point! airmark: And England went on to win the Euros and the World Cup back to back after Scholes retired, didn’t they? When Scholes was running the midfield for England and Man Utd, Gerrard and Lampard were in their parents backyard watching how they could one day be as great as Scholes. airmark: And only a retärd that has been sectioned to 22 different mental institutions would advocate for Gerrard into the hall of fame without ever winning the competition. The aim of creating any competition is to determine a winner If Gerrard knew Liverpool weren’t good enough as a team to win the competition, why didn’t he leave? Part of being a good footballer is making a decision that supports your ambition - I doubt he had any. Ronaldo could have stayed in Lisbon all his life. Messi could have returned to Argentina to keep in touch with his roots. Zidane could have remained in Cannes all his career or fat Ronaldo could have turned down the opportunity of coming to Europe when he was 18. All these players made big decisions to leave the comfort zones of their homes and get into clubs that align with their ambitions. It’s not Buhari’s fault Gerrard stayed in a club that couldn’t win the PL. He should take responsibility for his decision. If you make excuses for failure, it’s perhaps because you are a failure yourself. 13 Likes 3 Shares

No clean sheets since Maguire got injured. And we've seen Henderson and De Gea in goal since that time so we cant really say it's on the goal keepers. He may not be a Vidic reincarnate but Maguire is most def the best CB we currently have. Bailly kor.....Smalling ni 9 Likes |

airmark: Yeah let's just ignore the fact that Scholes played deeper than both Gerrard and Lampard and still had comparable stats.. Bruno is equaling fat lampard's prime stats. Y'all shekpites say lampard is better than Scholes because he scores more. Using your logic, lampard is no better than Bruno... Scholes was a playmaker. Lampard and Gerrard have similar strengths in getting forward from midfield positions but aren’t as strong behind play. These are two different roles. Thinking quality playmakers are rarer than quality midfielders who can get forward and score. Saying fat lampard retired scholes is the funniest shit i have seen a shekpite say this year. Why didn't Lampard and Gerrard's pairing in the England midfield work as well as it could have? You should have asked yourself that.. The key issue with Lamps and Gerrard is that they are more or less the same player. Both like to drift into spaces off the front and both are players that have most to offer going forward. Lampard runs off the ball, Gerrard typically runs with it. You can’t have two box-to-box midfielders instead you should place that kind of player with a defensive wall who does the dirty work i.e. tackling and intercepting, a high-pressing, energetic ball winner who presses down his opponents and closes down space or a creative playmaker who dictates the tempo of the game. The best players who could have played alongside Gerrard or Lampard in the England team was Scholes but for whatever reasons was completely overlooked by Eriksson, Capello and Hodgson. Sadly, England over the years have had to rue such poor decision making by constantly disgracing themselves and underachieving in every tournament which they have played in … from Euro 2004 all the way to Euro 2016. Stop saying Fat lamps and Gerrard retired scholes... 3 Likes |

Lana1: I knew that that Bailly wouldn’t be up to scrap. Hes so unaware of his surroundings. He loses concentration often. Pair him with another average defense and the result is mayhem. I expect him to be injured for most of next season. That’s why I didn’t want his contract renewed. He’s just looking to make a buck. |
