Manchester United legend Paul Scholes feels Steven Gerrard should've left Liverpool for Chelsea during his career. Scholes wrote in the London Evening Standard: "If there was a time to leave Liverpool and join another club, he should have gone to Chelsea when they tried to sign him for the second time after he won the Champions League in 2005. It always looked like Chelsea would win the league more than once.
"There are those who say it would have been worth less with Chelsea. I disagree. Moving clubs is a part of football. I was lucky that my club were strong enough that I could fulfil my ambitions there. But when you win a trophy it means the same, whether they are the club you began your career with or one you joined for £30m.
"I wonder if part of his decision to leave Liverpool now was that, compared with last season, the club look much further away from that next league title. It would be much more difficult to walk away from the Liverpool team as it was in the second half of last season than the Liverpool team as it is now."
