Fantastic player and one of the best our generation but never the best outright. Zidane is above him

 

Forget Iniesta he was Spain key man

 

It's also quite a statement to say the hub of "two of the best sides of all-time". Especially Spain. Many people who also had the priviledge to watch the Brazil sides of old would say they were the best

 

Yehshua  - Pirlo is not in the same league as either Xavi or Zidane. Stop it please

 

Arguably the two best sides of all time....thats a fact mate, both Spain and Barcelona are right at the top of the totem pole when it comes to sporting teams, not in the last year or decade but in the history of the sport.

 

What Brazil are you talking about btw?

 

And of course Pirlo is in the same league as Xavi..

 

Hes won everything Xavi has, while being probably even more technically proficient.

 

There all in the same league for me, but i'll rate Zidane the highest obviously.

 

 

1970 Brazil according to many are the greatest national side ever

 

Pirlo is not in the same league as Xavi. Not as influencial or consistent

 

You don't watch Serie A because that comment is ridiculous.

 

And I don't just mean the fan boys that jumped on him the last 3 years.

 

 

Lost count the amount of times I've seen Pirlo have a poor game.

 

Always seems to try the most difficult pass which goes wayward often

 

Xavi is key reason why the Barca and Spain sides are among the best in history.

 

Pirlo is a tier below and could not have made the same impact

Thats a part of his game, Xavi is a more consistent passer, but Pirlo has better range, more variety etc.

 

If there is one thing that has irked me about the post Barca domination, is that people think just because you can't pass like Xavi you can't be a top class cm.

 

Pirlo is a key factor of those successful Italy and Milan teams, then he went on and dominated the Serie A for the 2nd time again with Juve,

Englands problem is we don't have central midfielders who can retain the ball. If we had a Paul scholes type player we'd be so much better at this level.

Scholes wasn't the problem, play him with Parker and the same things that happened today happen.

Gerrard found out yet again

Found out in a two man midfield?

Did you see Pirlo in his last season for Milan?

People like you spout rubbish without understanding football, Pirlo is able to thrive because apart from his technical ability he is played in the right setup, Gerrard is not.

You don't understand Football

All this time you saying Gerrard is a WC CM but he always gets found out

His best season was as a SS under Rafa

Gerrard will never be a CM
