Paul Scholes Retires

[Microdot]

zidane has also said the same about gerrard not so long ago, and even ferguson described him as the most influencial player,bar non.

gerrard can/ does do everthing scholes can do,whilst also being a better athlete,a better tackler and faster.

His passing is not even close to Scholes'

Gerrard has 76, Paul Scholes 33

Those don't sound very believable career stats dude.
If Scholes only had 33 assists in over 15 years, I doubt he'd be playing at the highest level.

Most of United's assists tend to come from the wingers.
Pass completion rate is a more suitable stat tbh.
Though I can't see it as an option there.

Can't see an option for "dives" either...
No doubt Gerrard would have Scholes beat hands down on that one.

Although he's some way behind Scholes on the most important stat of all....Goals.
Scholes 102 from 465
Gerrard 84 from 386

with Gerrard being ahead slightly on goals per game (a stat which will drop off as Gerrard nears the end of his career).

Would be interesting to see how many actual minutes on the pitch those appearance stats would represent too, as Scholes has probably started a smaller percentage of his appearances than Gerrard (because of playing in a better team).

Shame they don't have a chance conversion stats page either.
