I thought Scholes was far better than Gerrard. Gerrard was a showreel player where as Scholes had more to his game. Scholes was far better than Gerrard in the deeper role and just as threatening on the edge of the box, or breaking into it. Gerrard had a better engine and could go on lung bursting rune, but Scholes was a more intelligent footballer.
Would Gerrard have looked better than Scholes in those United teams? Or was Scholes one of the key parts in making those teams as successful as they were?
Scholes gets a lot of stick on this forum, he has become an easy target due to his media persona, but he was an absolutely fantastic footballer. A major exponent of the tactical foul as well. It has been made into a bit of a running joke in regards to his challenges but he knew exactly what he was doing.
