However, it is Ronaldo that gets the midfielder's vote as his top team-mate at Old Trafford.
Scholes, who is due to make his 99th Champions League appearance in Italy, said: "I have been quite lucky to have played with a lot of great players.
"Cristiano has to be at the top now, purely for what he has done this season.
"Scoring the amount of goals from his position has been nothing short of amazing.
"It is not just that, though, it is the way he makes chances and the threat he poses to other teams."
