Scholes has been the best in the past 20 years IMO.

I would argue to why Scholes hasn't scored the same or created the same amount of goals as Lampard if he was better? Scholes has only had 2 seasons in where he got 10+ premier league goals in a season(95-96/02-03), his highest being 14 Lampard has done it 9 times consecutively(2003-2012) highest being 22.

that is all the experienced English centre midfielders in the prem a few more I know but the top 3 are miles above the rest, Frank Lampard edges it for me, then Scholes and then Gerrard.

So glad we didn't pick Oxlade-Chamberlain. It would be so English to have called him up tonight. Although I bet we won't resist the temptation of taking him to the Euros...

Even Mario Gotze has only made 12 appearances for Germany, and there are players lesser ability to him and similar ability to O-C from Germany and Spain under 20 who might not be going to the Euros this year.

Welbeck and Sturridge struggled tonight, as did Baines. Mind you, was trashing Cahill and Young then they went and scored, Cahill throwing his arms about like a tart and Young just wasn't playing well.

Nice play for the 2nd, Cahill lucky. Not bad for a young team I suppose, lacked that attacking intent.

New Wembley ain't a patch on the ode Wembley.
