Well Lampard,Gerrard,Scholes are often credited that one of them is greatest midfielder ever in PL.Also Kevin de bruyne falls in their category for obvious reasons. As a chelsea fan ill choose lampard over others but i love kevin too because i have not seen a better passer than him in world apart from messi. I just wanna know your opinions on what u think who is the Greatest?

    Scholes was asked who is better him or Gerrard, and he said he couldn’t do what Gerrard did at Liverpool, but Gerrard could do what he did at Utd and more.

    This applies to any PL CM. If you swapped them for Gerrard, Gerrard would put perform them. But put any of them in a Liverpool shirt in those teams he had to play with, and Liverpool would not have had the (limited) success they had.

    Cause of people on Twitter and the banter age, all people talk about is ‘Gerrard slip hahahah’. If you look back at his career, he out performed pretty much every player in the league for multiple seasons. He just didn’t have the league titles or higher finishes, as he played in worse teams.

      The overall teams didn’t compare but for a time Gerrard was in a midfield with Alonso and Mascherano. On paper one of the greatest trios ever (not to mention peak Torres up top), so can’t say he didn’t have support.
