Lots of historical revision going on with that. 

No doubt Scholes was a good player but the current trend of frothing over him like he was Zidane and Pirlo rolled into one is ridiculous and quite honestly annoying. 

If he was that great then Real Madrid or Barcelona would have been offering mega money to get him. That never happened.

 

And pirlo wasn't even in the conversation till he was in his late 20s early 30s. He wasn't even talked about till then

Bull. If Scholes had ever wanted to leave united. Real Madrid and Barcelona would have been all over him. Scholes was a one club man though 

A one club man that never won player of the year at that club

Lampard was massively overrated.  I think rice has been a better midfielder for England 

29 Goals in 106 appearances for England.....

As John Cleese said on Monty Python

This is all getting very silly!

Anderson better than Wharton

Wharton better than Scholes

Rice better than Lampard

In Next week's episode

"Bobby Charlton - was he all that?"

Pele only scored against amateurs

Elliot Anderson is Scottish pass it on

At least Adam Wharton has always been 100% faithful to England, not hedging his bets elsewhere!

But surely he'd have won it once, right? If he was as good as you remember?

There's no denying that he was a great player but he's now being painted as one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of boots and this is just ridiculous. 

He was never even United's best midfielder and also wasn't really used in his natural position for England. 

Funnily enough I don't remember anyone waxing lyrical about him like this until years after he stopped playing, almost as though there's some rose tinted glasses revisionism from some and many others just blindly repeating this.

On another note, chaddy calling someone out for embarrassing comments is absolutely laughable.

He was a nasty bastard as well. All this shit about “ he’s not really a very good tackler “ or “ he just doesn’t know how to tackle “ - bollocks, he knew exactly what he was doing.

As per usual, had he been at any other club he would have received many a red card however he got the protection from the refs as all united players did.

🙋‍♂️ I used to wax lyrical (because I know a top player when I see one)
