No doubt Scholes was a great player ,no doubt about that .

But Lampard is better ,some opinions on here are lauding Scholes and that is what they are opinions ,the opinion that Scholes controlled the midfield better is an opinion. By the way in their prime they were both box to box players and Scholes only sat late on as Lampard is now and Frank is still scoring where as Scholes goals dried up.

But lets look at the facts Lampard has the by far better scoring record and is a better tackler ,Scholes should have been sent off and booked far more often than he was ,Fergies influence got him off many times. v Barcelona this was by far the biggest test of any midfielder and Lampard more than held his own aganst them.

Lampard retired Scholes from the England team as soon as Lampard came on the scene Scholes knew it was time to wave goodbye to his international career.

So the facts/stats point to Lampard and in my opinion Lampard controlled the tempo and pace of games as well as Scholes and had the edge on that oh so precious commodity in football ,goals beautiful goals. Lampard for me every time and due to management instability at Chelsea ,if Lampard had played his career at Old Trafford instead of playing for Chelsea I am convinced Fergusons Champions League record would have looked better than it does.
