Andrea Pirlo was also one of the very best players but he doesn’t have as good of a goal scoring record as Scholes because he actually was a deep lying play maker.

You didn’t say the opposite. Scholes was better in the oppositions half. The stats show that. Norwood isn’t, he barely gets into the oppositions half.

Scholes’s role at Man U is nothing like Norwood’s at United. Man U didn’t play a role like Norwood’s for most of the period we’re talking about.

Keane was the defensive element and Scholes was the attacking element. Like Alonso and Makelele to Gerrard and Lampard.

Scholes and Gerrard were both box to box midfielders. Nobody on the planet would describe Norwood that way.

LJBlade , just returning to this conversation as I've just come across this video on YouTube.

Interesting to hear Scholes' own take on his role at Manchester Utd for the last 10 years of his career a deep lying controlling midfielder.
Neville says "I don't even remember you now as an attacking midfielder."

Norwood plays as a deep lying controlling midfielder for us.

38mins onwards.
