![Who Was the Best Player: Paul Scholes, Frank Lampard or Steven Gerrard? [A detailed comparison]](/img/n.gif)
Chelsea fan since 96, Steven Gerrard wins this one easily for me. If players swapped clubs during their playing time then Liverpool would have been a lot worse off. Gerrard took so many games by the scruff of the neck and you could argue he's defensive game is better and he was a stronger captain. Both could pass, finish, create and take set peices. Lamaprd arguably had the better technique, but Gerrard's overall game was stronger and he influenced games where Liverpool had no right winning.
Let's be honest, If it wasn't Gerrard, Liverpool would have been mid-table team at best, even might have faced relegation. I doubt any other midfielder would be able to do for Liverpool what Gerrard has done. The guy has everything, scores from penalties, with headers, from distance, free-kicks, great defensively and posses outstanding leadership and vision of the game. If I want a midfielder for my team, I would choose prime Gerrard with no hesitation.
People would follow Gerrard into Hell. The guy is a folk hero and led like no other. Dragged mediocre teams to Champions of Europe against some of the elite teams of an era. Swap him with any of the other names and Liverpool don't win a thing.
Gerrard for me. I'll never forget the cup final against West Ham. He was phenomenal, whilst the rest of his squad ran around like lemons.
Gerrard and by a mile, only people with club loyalties say otherwise, Gerrard could do anything, Scholes and Lamps went on to have better careers and won more trophies and if that’s the question then they win easily but if it’s about who’s the better player, Gerrard could do it all, every single facet of the midfield play, we were made to watch Gerrard’s clips in the academy, both defensive, attacking and central/holding/ box to box midfielders because he was the one at that time who had it all.
There's a reason why Jose Mourinho want to sign Gerrard at Chelsea when he already had Lampard at his disposal. And Mourinho try to sign Gerrard when he was at Real Madrid as well.
Lampard is highest midfielder for goals in the league, and 3rd for assists. U can say Gerard is better but don’t dismiss Lampard like he’s didn’t have an amazing record
Would Chelsea have been worse with Gerrard in the team rather than Lampard? No chance.
Both were definitely great players and very well decorated, Lampard in particular. Gerrard did have a number of decent and good players around him during his career, but he was definitely the key man at Liverpool from the time of Rafa Benitez until Luis Suarez' final season with Liverpool... Not only was Gerrard the better athlete in terms of pace and explosiveness, but he was a true box to box midfielder who would play any role in midfield and also as a second striker, he had great technique with the ball at his feet and he had such an extraordinary range of passes as well...
Yes, Lineker just said it! Why can't any England coach back then move out of a 4-4-2?! If Lampard can play successfully with Ballack in a 4-3-3, he can play well with Gerrard in that formation too!
Only way to answer this question is, could Lampard or Scholes do what Gerrard did in lfc? I think not.
Some player can attack, some player can assist, some player can score, some player can defend and some player can motivate their team, bu Gerrard can do all those.
Lampard influences in big games are very underrated, yes hes got the better team, but even though he is surrounded by superstar, he is always the one who brings the win or the orchestrator.
Gerrard was a heroic captain who single-handedly carried that mediocre Liverpool team to cup success ....He led from the front... Lampard would not be able to play to his max in a mediocre team....
Gerrard was the better player 👏
On how many occasions did Lampard or Scholes pick a team up on there own and win games???
Love both. Absolute beasts im their day but Gerrard for me just had more. Lamps was goals in a very talented chelsea teams. Gerrard gave you not as many goals but did score, assist, make something out of nothing in Liverpool’s mediocre days. Tbh lamps played with freedom to go forward.
Its a tight one but I would have Gerrard in my team ... He is an all action midfielder ..can shoot can tackle can assist and can lead the team by example
vs AC Milan in Istanbul Gerrard play 3 position in single match, midfiled then on the second half switch to central forward and then in extra time swith to rightback
The distinctive point that Gerard is more of versatile player. He can paly anywhere. Plus he has a great leadership character!
