First Henderson better than debruyne
I didn’t think it could get worse but it has
When zidane xavi Bobby Charlton Ronaldinho ronaldo(original) Thierry Henry amd the likes said scholes the best In the world....
And Gerard can’t even stand up lol
We can't even compare Hendo & Debruyne if I'm honest. Hands down Hendo is better. Think that's just an accepted fact for anyone who knows football ...
Gerrard & Scholes. It's actually a really cool debate and I think both of us will stick to where our loyalties lie which is fair enough. Scholes was a brilliant player btw.
Remember watching an interview recently with both G Neville and Gerrard talking about when they played each other. One point Neville said was that old Whiskey Nose prefered not to put Scholes against Gerrard but others instead of him ...
You mentioned what Zidane said. I think players, former players, whoever will always have an opinion. I could easily list other top top players, managers etc. that said the same about Gerrard. In fact, Zidane said this:
"I have said in the past that at his peak he was the best in the world," said the 42-year-old. "I think it was the summer of 2004 I was having a conversation with Florentino (Perez) and I told him I wanted him to partner me in midfield for Madrid. "I know the club tried twice but he wouldn't leave Liverpool. Not many players turn down Real Madrid but I think that tells you a lot about the loyalty of the man."
