Scholes' goalscoring record pre Sven is very impressive. It was Sven who teamed Scholes and Gerrard on a more permanent basis, after Keegan paired them once in Euro 2000. Scholes was asked to sit deeper to allow Gerrard to get forward more, and when Lampard came into the side he was pushed left with Gerrard asked to sit. It was a disgrace Sven never gave Scholes a chance to play more advanced of Gerrard, like he did Lampard.
