A debate that still rages fierce even to this day, the question of who is the best out of Paul Scholes, Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard certainly gets the blood pumping.

Manchester United fans understandably point to their own man being the greatest of them all, and when you have former legends of the game also paying tribute, there is certainly an element of truth to it.

Despite retiring some time ago, the former England international appears to have lost none of his remarkable abilities. Playing in Vincent Kompany’s testimonial on Wednesday night, Scholes enjoyed one particularly memorable moment of brilliance when he nonchalantly flicked a pass into the path of Robin van Persie in the second-half.

After seeing the 44-year-old’s piece of magic, United fans flooded to Twitter to hail their midfield hero.

Many supporters of the Manchester side waxed lyrical over Scholes’ ever-lasting quality, with one fan in particular insisting “class is permanent, genius is forever”.

Some United fans even claimed the former star could get into the current team, and urged him to come out of retirement.

Check out some of the reaction of United fans below:
