Gerrard vs Lampard vs Scholes - VERY INTERESTING READ

I just want to say... I find it very disrespectful when people compare Scholes to Gerrard and Lampard.
I did this research a couple of days ago, and I just want to say even before I did this research, just by watching these players in their primes, I always had the impression that Scholes never ever came close to Gerrard and Lampard. I even doubt he was a 'World Class' player. The results of my research just confirm this...

Basically from this, (well not even from this... just by watching the players in their primes you could tell that scholes was never even near gerrard and lampard in terms of player quality..) anyways... from this you can clearly see that scholes is no match for these two players.
Gerrard 8 nominations for World XI, actually in it THREE times. Compared to Scholes who was only nominated..... TWICE..?!?!?! and never actually in it. Gerrard in UEFA Team of the Year THREE TIMES. Scholes... ZERO!

Gerrard close to winning a Ballon d'or... Scholes... NEVER EVER EVEN ANYWHERE NEAR IT.

Ok lets forget looking at a European Scale for a moment.. lets look at premier league.. we can see that Gerrard was in the Premier League team of the year EIGHT times... in 17 years.
Scholes was only on it TWO times.. and what more? TWO times in 20 years !!!

Gerrard was premier league player of the year on many occasions by different voters! He was England player of the year TWICE !!! SCHOLES NEVER HAD ANY OF THIS!!!

Ok now for the people who argue, Gerrard didnt win the league blah blah blah...
Do you not know that a trophy is a team effort?
Are you saying because Benzema has won the Champions League, and that Ronaldo Brazilian hasnt, then Benzema is a better player? Are you saying that because Miroslav Klose has won the World Cup, and that Messi hasnt, that Klose is a better player?

Also dont forget that Gerrard could have left liverpool for any club he wanted to in his prime, everyone was after him. He was the best midfielder in the world no doubt about it, arguably the best player in the world. AC Milan wanted him, Inter Milan, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich... he could have gone to many other teams and won 1000000000 league titles and 100000000 more champions league, but he decided to stay loyal to his team.
For example:
Pirlo : 'Carlo (Ancelotti) was like a father to me. We used to, and still do speak a lot,' Pirlo said. 'While at Milan he came to me and said "I want to sign Steven Gerrard to play next to you in midfield - what do you think?" 'Without any hesitation I told him "do it - go and sign him". At this stage he was probably the most complete midfield player in Europe, of course I wanted to partner him.' 'I remember asking Carlo a few weeks later how it was going, and he told me Gerrard had given a very firm no, that his bond with Liverpool was unbreakable. 'At the time Milan were the champions of Europe and probably had the best team in the world - it says a lot about Gerrard's loyalty.'

Apart from Walkers crisps adverts, Gary Lineker almost helped the lions clinch a second world cup back in Italia ’90. Playing alongside Paul Gascoigne he must have had his hands full with keeping his team mates in line as well as keeping focused on the game.

Gary Lineker was never booked... Even a yellow card

A defender to go his whole career without being sent off is quite a rarity and must surely require a cool head as well as luck to have never been shown a red card. One mistimed challenge or one cheeky elbow can easily put them in the ref’s bad books.

He didn't have much time to play in his career
Injury prone
