Besides Scholes as a Deep lying playmaker would have allowed England to play the 433 Formation with A barry or Carrick behind him and released either of Lampard or Gerrard to get more forward.
Similar to Milan with Gattuso ,Pirlo and Kaka ,that would have given England more control over their possesion,not only possesion in terms of numbers.
Scholes would have also helped give the Midfield some bite ,and cover in deep positions which it lacked the whole tournament with Lampard and Barry.
That would have given England more tactical Flexibility and Meant that Rooney Played the role where he was succesful for United the previous season and would have meant no Heskey in the team.
Even at this age Scholes is England's best passer ,both short and specially Long and his long passes would have added to the penetration ability from deep,which England used aimlessly the whole tournament just aimlessly lumping it forward to Heskey. He would have also used his Long balls to make through passes not only on ground but also in the air accross to the wingers which would have given England more Width and More Penetration . This would have allowed the Fulbacks too concentrate on the defending too and not go forward to give width.
