Underrated in Milan, overrated in Juve

In Milan he was the conductor
In juve he was the composer

>>76526673
Busquets tier

>>76526673
Huge meme
He couldn't defend worth a shit so he was always a defensive liability

If he was faster he could have played on the sides and been a much better player.

He was a flawed player...weakest starting player in that 2002-2007 Milan

>Best passing midfield player of his generation
LOL not even close
He wasn't even the best passer in that Milan(Rui Costa and Seedorf were way better)

>>76526673

Won the world cup.

He was the Del Pierro of Italy.

What's the name of that Korean that completely destroyed Pirlo?

Was it Park Ji Sung?


Also required hard working men making up for his own low workrate and his terrible defensive ability.
Honestly Messi up front is a better defender than Pirlo.

Pirlo was so lucky to work with Clarence "works for 3" Seedorf.

Pretty much the definition of a specialist but needed a team around him to make up for his shortcomings or he was just a liability.

Elite is a very specific role
