airmark: I'm sure I've done a hatchet job on the Apollo eyed mofo before I need to consult my archives. Scholes is a fraud. When Lampard and Gerrard started with him, he was bundled to play as a left winger for England. Obvious he was the most prominent English midfielder from the biggest English club at the time, so Eriksson had to find a place for him - That's how a slow right-legged central midfielder with eye problems ended up playing on left wing. They didn't even say Baba oya take right wing as a righty. That's how he was forced to retire in shame and disgrace - He was still in his twenties when he quit England NT. I can't blame him, one day they might have collect jersey from David James and given him to wear just to accommodate the slow coach. Can't tackle, can't run, can see - That's probably why the man beefs Pogba so much 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Capello begged him to return to England team, he didnt He quit england in his Twenties, but he was bossing midfields in epl till 38/39.......... Lampard was warming bench at Man city before that age.............Aguero collected the PK |

nihilistjnr: Pogba is a utility midfielder, that could give alot of assists, unlike the albino that gave 55 assists in 19 seasons. |

airmark:Talmbout individual brilliance and creativity with 4 goals from open play in 15 years of champions league. This is what that diggz daughter in the village will say and everybody will laugh. You should do comedy |

Expert17: Lampard and Gerrard would have benched Scholes if they came to United Ferguson that was offering Gerrard 7 years and 1 round with Scholes girlfriend, for him to come and bench the Albino 3 Likes 1 Share

eph12:Scholes can’t defend, instead he tackle recklessly, those two were superior than him going forward. The coach was anticipating Owen H to play CDM but he was always injured. Carrick was on Erick Dier’s level in terms of talent. Your strong point under SAF was not midfield but attack, cross and nod tactics, playing from flank kinda football. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 4:13pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben:What was England's kinda football with your Lampard and Gerrard? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by hensben(m): 4:13pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
Expert17:So before Lampard and Gerrard he was still been used out of position. What does that tell you about scholes. Are you aware scholes was a reckless player and every coach demand discipline mostly from their midfielders. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 4:18pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben: Reckless, ... I agree.....go and compare Gerrard and Scholes Red cards in EPL..... Roy keane, Patrick Veira, are reckless also.... Lampard always think abt PK, so he can't be reckless 2 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by hensben(m): 4:19pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
eph12:The coach wanted to utilize both players because they were too good but absence of Hargreeves didn’t make things work as planned. Scholes played his best football for Man U in his mid 30s. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 4:20pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
nihilistjnr: Just Like the way Lampard benched Yaya toure at Man city? If Paul Scholes, return to football today, he will bench all those your midfielders at Chelsea |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 4:22pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben: So Lampard and Gerrard can defend better Can they even pass the ball like Scholes Or control the tempo of games?? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 4:24pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben: Imagine, ... Michael Carrick on Eric dier level..... |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 4:26pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben:See long story. You said utd tactics was attack, cross and nod tactics and not midfield. Oya what was England's tactics with Lampard and Gerrard ooo? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by hensben(m): 4:27pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
Expert17:If Lampard was always thinking about PK how did he get more assist than scholes who was always thinking about spreading passes. Roy keane and Viera were stubborn and not reckless. They were CDM so making tackles was their primary duty. Scholes was reckless as a CM, his defensive frailties was always showing so playing him behind Gerrard and Lampard would’ve been more suicidal. Owen H would’ve be the right player behind those two, not scholes. 3 Likes 2 Shares |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by airmark(m): 4:28pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
eph12: Why are you shying away from Lampard/Scholes argument but always bringing Hazard into it? Are you ashamed of 55 assists in 19 seasons from the so-called best English CM? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by hensben(m): 4:33pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
eph12:Fast transitional football is what the coach was playing with those two in midfield. If Owen H was fit the tactics would’ve been perfect or rather worked well. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by hensben(m): 4:35pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
airmark:Just imagine. Was Hazard only playing ucl. What about his other goals. Yeye. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 4:39pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben: The same Paul Scholes was in Man utd first team for 19 seasons, ... Playing with more than 20 midfielders, ....still remained in the 1st eleven...... Won 11 out of 19 EPL, ....more than Gerrard and Lampard combined.... 4-4-2 under Fergie- the two man midfield, Paul scholes and a DM, job is to stop the opposition from playing, dictate the tempo, open up defence with long pass, frustrate the opponent tactics, .... Most football stars, rate him higher than Gerrard and Lampard in terms of ball playing and midfield control....... |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by hensben(m): 4:42pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
Expert17:How will you know when SAF tactics was working, cr7 and others were there and also with the help of FA. Are you aware SAF won Epl with cleverly starting, Will you now say cleverly was better than fletcher. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 4:46pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben:So because of one Owen H, Lampard and Gerrard were useless? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 4:47pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben: So you haven'tt heard about Coach effect/impact on players...... Fergie can win the league once the Spinal cord of the team is good to go.... From 2007- 2009 Spinal cord. Vanderser- Vidic- Scholes-Ronaldo-Rooney |

airmark:You were talking about your YES and NO na. We just wanted your clarification on Hazard champions league goals. YES or NO? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by hensben(m): 4:48pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
Expert17:That is because he was a CM while Lampard was AMF with different tactics, different playing pattern. So as a CM, scholes primary role was to dictate the play, did he make fifa 11 at any point in his career in his primary role? It’s not by how far but how well. 19 years in one club yet his individual award is like that of morosso budget. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by hensben(m): 4:53pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
eph12:When last England won any major trophy before those two? And also when scholes was there before those two what did England win. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Swissh: 4:55pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
Expert17:Fabregas shitts on Scholes with everything. You only get power over the penalty merchant called lampard . Leave the lion out of a discussion about sheeps. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Swissh: 4:58pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
Melvyn11:Arsenal is the club in the England that actually owns most of the best players to ever step foot in England followed by Liverpool. The rest clubs have mostly overrated and overhyped dunce. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 4:59pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben:So no difference between Scholes that can't play midfield and world class Lampard + Gerrard? That tough? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 4:59pm On Mar 30, 2020 |
hensben: @bolded is correct.... So you shouldn't expect Scholes to Assists or Score like Lampard..... Please list Gerrard's individual award Scholes trophies should be almost same with chelsea's trophies.... You should know by now, Paul scholes doesnt play for all that personal glory, .... Team glory is his priority.... That is why he doesn't fight Rooney for Penalty like Lampard |
