Tbf I don't think it's true, most of the posters doesn't know much about that period and they remember Scholes very well.
And Uruguaian Ballon D'Or winner? Not sure who are you talking about here, I don't think that any player of Uruguayan decent won Ballon.
I have no idea what you're on about. I said a Spaniard and a Czech.
As for Scholes, I've said my piece. If people rate him that highly, it's on them. I don't myself, but there it is.
I would add, though, that the possible fact that people aren't familiar with certain players shouldn't influence how they're rated - by us - in this draft. It's a factor when it comes to how easily you can sell a player - or how much of a vote puller he is. But it shouldn't be considered as relevant when nominating players in a GOAT pool. People who rate Scholes above the two Ballon boys on the basis of not knowing the latter probably aren't very familiar with, say, Figueroa either - much less so than several recently active defenders who, objectively, are nowhere near Figueroa's level.
