What make him out standing is how he completely control the ball rotation. .. Every lofted pass or long through ball from Pirlo , the ball looks like it just floating like a ballon. .. It's insane
@@maximus-go1um You must be that special education kid they were talking about. .. You need to read my comment again and again and again until you are of understanding. .. Re read with clear head
Pirlo was the absolute terror of defense lines doing high pressure. He put the ball where he wants to, and he could do it with both legs. I can only imagine how good it was for wingbacks to play with him. All you have to do is run, the ball will reach you
u know football...he is the kind of player me as a defend hate to play against coz all they need is send the ball behind the defensive line and quick run from wing could cause bigger damage ...
Pirlo and Xavi were the only players where it felt like time slowed down when they got the ball. There could be 3 players pressuring them they would spin away from them and find the perfect pass in an instant. Crazy talent.
@@Glory-Compass zidane : 3 WC final goals , WC POTT , Euros POTT , 2 FIFA the best , 1 ballon d'or , 1 UCL final goal , dominated 3 different leagues ....3 peated CL as a manager...still overrated??
@@SonuSharma-zl9bg not overrated.Overhyped.Pirlo and Xavi are at His Level and are more consistent throughout their career but don’t get talked about enough like Zidane
One of the things that you can't see on compilation videos like this is how Pirlo controlled the game. Besides the obvious skill of passing, dribbling and shooting, when you watch entire games you can see how he controls the pace of teams, how he chooses which side to overload to attack from and how he is in charge of keeping possession. A true master.
Pirlo was unique in many ways. He was the only deep play maker that would design the game from his own box and thanks to accurate long passing, he was able to lead an attack from right on his own box edge. His balance was as good as a ballerina and only comparable to Maradona and Zidane.
Pra mim ele e o Zidane são aqueles jogadores que levam a definição do termo "Esse joga de terno", classe demais, vai demorar pra aparecer jogador assim novamente
Completely agree but only in this day and age. Go back through the decades the Midfield talent was insane but just even around the 90's and 00's midfielders ruled the game and were totally appreciated. Seedorf, Pirlo, Zidane, David's, Guti, Juninho, Riquelme, Matthaus, Rui Costa schweinsteiger, Rivaldo, Xavi, Laudrup, haven't even picked many of the obvious one so much talent compared to the current players.
Facts! To bad that players like him never get a ballon dor or something like that. People aro so dumb when they say 'Benzema won the CL for Real Madrid in 2022' without Modric, without Kroos, without Courtois he would never win it. Messi won the world cup but without the goalkeeper, without the high pressure of the midfielders, without a solid defence he would never won the world cup. Ronaldo/Messi can not win games if the defense not doing their job. If the goalkeeper not doing his job.
He is so refreshing , zero agressivity, he is in total control of he being ( spirit, soul, body) he play with his brain 🧠 his leg are just tools. Maestro 👏👏
Besides one of the greatest passers, he absolutely very skilled players. Make sense because before he played in his role he is number 10 player. But god his shooting just like he kick a helium ball
All hail Pirlo, the captain of AC Milan and the master of long and diagonal passes, the lord of the defensive play makers, the gentleman of Milan and Italy, the father of freekicks and the lord of rotations and high balls and the dictator of tempo, the Metronome, the greatest deep lying playmaker of all times.
had I still been a young, naive kid I would have said that Pirlo is my idol. But since I'm grown up enough to know that having idols is not normal I will just say that Pirlo is (probably) my all-time favorite Italian player... almost 50-50 split in likeness between him and Paolo Maldini. And it's definitely top 10 favorite players in the world for me. Also, I will never forget Gattuso's quote in an interview when he said "when I see what Andrea does with the ball I wonder if I am a footballer" :) ... Such an elegant, visionary and efficient player! I've lost a friendship in mid-2000s because of my fanatism with AC Milan, and for good reason: Pirlo, Kaka, Shevchenko, Inzaghi, Maldini, Nesta and Seedorf on the pitch at the same time has been nothing short of spectacular and awe-inspiring. Even the officials of Barca or Real Madrid (I don't remember which one) have facepalmed themselves when they've been drawn up against the mighty Milan of the 2000s in one of the UCL knock-out rounds. THAT good have AC Milan been back then, and part of the reason is Pirlo.... Good 'ol memories....
@@danielosdinia4258 I was too young to watch Sacchi's Milan, but yeah, a lot of people say that THAT Milan have been better than the 2000s one. But, I guess you can only appreciate what you're familiar with, so...
Maybe people will say I'm wrong, but I think that the early 2000s where the peak of the football in general. Today's top players could not compete against the top players who played back then
Elegance, grace, balance, agility, first touch, quick reactions, pirlo was technically flawless. Players like pirlo come in once every generation. Forza pirlo.
é impressionante como ele consegue aliviar a pressão com seus dribles de corpo, assim como seus passes entre linhas, com certeza foi um dos jogadores mais inteligentes que já existiram
As an AC Milan fan, I still feel like crying remembering how he left Milan in 2011. This guy was among the people who made love football, him together with Gattuso, Maldini, Kaka, Seedorf and Inzaghi made me an AC Milan fan. Certainly amongst the best midfielders ever.
I have been a lifelong pirlo fan so i would always testify to this. But after watching this video i really think he was along side xavi and iniesta in their prime. An absolute unique and elegant footballer. His playstyle is 1/100000000 and he perfects it too!
Elegance, charm, serenity... Inside and outside the football pitches... Master class. ............. Eleganza, charme, serenità... Dentro e fuori dal campo di calcio... Una leggenda del calcio
The Goat of all midfielders He really didn't have the strength or stamina of a physical cdm but his touches, vision, control of d game , shots, elegance , awareness, d list goes on they were simply magical.. He is my goat of all midfielders ❤
For someone who wasn't very defensive minded, I cannot think of anyone who actually owned the 20 to 20 with his eyes except Andrea Pirlo. The pitch was his.
So underrated he deserve ballon dor or two Way more than the overrated Messi and cr7 Unique talent , exceptional role in football He played as deep lay down playmaker Control the match and the Rhythm like no other Probably the greatest long ball I have ever seen accuracy and first touch High skill incredible ball shielding not easy to lose the ball when it’s between his foot I’m not shy to say that Pirlo on the greatest top 11 of all times
Messi is hella Overrated Got compared to mardona and called by many of newer generation is the best player of all time Giving how mediocre his performance is outside of Barca
@@badsolja1 doesn’t matter how he performed outside of Barca. He is the ultimate GOAT. If Messi is overrated then no player that has ever existed is rated. Im a Ronaldo fan and have booed and hated Messi since 2008. But in all sincerity, there was never and might never be any element like him.
@ebhole Yeah you doing drug There’s no element like him in what critera When Brazilian Ronaldo would outclass on every aspect in football I didn’t say Messi is not good / great player he is or was But he’s so overrated so as cr7 of that what you was referring too as Ronaldo How it doesn’t matter how he performed outside of Barca ? When goats make a different with any team and don’t relay on the team to make a different This overrated so called “goat” Got heavily hindered every time he played against Italian team early in his career look him against inter 2009 or Milan 2008-2011 Mediocre at best Meanwhile player like mardona , Ronaldo Brazil zidane buttered through teams This guy overrated in the sense people called him the greatest finisher , greatest free kick taker greatest dribbler , fastest player on earth And all that proven wrong by logic and real football fan Who just don’t shout goat for his Barca tiki taka performance Ironically since xavi and ineasta retired he haven’t achieved much with Barca either
