I take it you're a big fan of Gerrard then?
If we're all honest Gerrard top this and any other list.

Most complete footballer the world has ever seen.

Man could've played in goal and been one of the world's best

But let's keep this as forwards for now

Yup. If it weren't for Shearer being a sports pundit, he'd have been forgotten about years ago, by anyone outside of Newcastle anyway. I associate Shearer more with Blackburn than I do the Toon anyway.....because the Toon aint won fook all.

He was at his best at Blackburn obvs.

Meh..maybe, i just think Scholes was a better player.
He played in a better team with better support staff.

In no way whatsoever was he better than Gerrard at anything you can do on a football pitch.

Show me a reel of crunching Scholes tackles where he takes the ball and man clean as whistle and we can talk

Tell me you don't know anything about football without telling me you don't know anything about football..
OK I'll make it easier for you to understand.


Scholes couldn't tackle for ****, yellow cards after evertmy attempt usually.

Name me something on the pitch ability wise that Scholes could do better than Gerrard.

You won't be able to.

First touch, passing, shooting, finishing, awareness, decision making, positioning.. could go on..just a better player.

Shearer basically won Blackburn the league on his own and was playing in a mid table Newcastle side for about half his time here..his goals to game last 3 seasons for Blackburn and first for us is incredible...he was also a better footballer than he got given credit for..i.e first touch and passing....Drogba ahead of him ffs <laugh>
you're too young to have seen him play <laugh>
