Brendan showing his inexperience with quite the over-reaction that Keegan would have been proud of, whereas wily old Jose and Wenger simply don't get sucked in. Lesson to be learned there.

Simply ridiculous hyperbole. I suppose you could reasonably argue that Scholes was better than Gerrard (plausible) or that Keane was better (tenuous at best, not close in my opinion) but to say Gerrard "couldn't lace Scholes and Keane's boots"? Absolutely absurd. Steven Gerrard is widely regarded as one of the greatest offensive midfielders of all time and rightly so. You are seriously reaching.
