This Italian teams looks very good
Embarrassingly bad article.
come on Pirlo and the Spaghetini team
I wouldn't say he's better than Xavi, but he's definitely in the same bracket as him. Probably going to win player of the tournament too.
He wasn't dispossessed.in the game until injury time according to Liam Brady on RTE!
Quality from start to finish, it's going to be fascinating to see him up against Spain.
In this tournament yes, but before this tournament they aren't even in the same class. Btw I hate Xavi with a passion, little arrogant .
It's amazing how a player has a 2 or 3 good games and everyone starts saying he's better than Xavi.
You obviously don't watch much football if you've only just realised how good Pirlo is. Why wasn't everyone saying these things before the tournament? Have you never seen Pirlo play?
Also Pirlo has not lost a game in Seria A since September 2010, that's some record.

Pirlo just went unbeaten in Seria A and won the league, hardly 2-3 good games.

2 or 3 games ago people weren't saying Pirlo is better than Xavi. Before the tournament started, people had forgotten about him. Now he's had a few good games, he's suddenly better than Xavi.
I know how well he's played this season btw.
Pirlo would struggle to get into Spain's starting line up.
Different type of player if you ask me. He was phenomenal tonight, though.
this master bation people seem to have over Pirlo is sickening....
yes he is a top player, he has been for ages.....
some people act like he just sprouted up out of the ground.... I guess most are used to thinking Rooney is as good as it gets!!
and can commentators stop with the Pirl-less cack....

Pirlo would walk into the Spain team ahead of Busquets as well.
Fabregas is on the bench for what ...Silva. I do not think the coach knows who to play the first eleven.

No he would not.

I think Fernando Llorente would agree with you.
Llorente isn't a very good player. Negredo and Torres are better than him.
No he would not.
-----------------------------
Considering they play a largely similar position, albeit a different role, and Pirlo being superior to Busquets in every way (especially the hair), i agree with the guy who said Pirlo would start for spain.

Please tell me you're joking?

You wanna start this again? You ran off last time, but ok, I'll bite.
Busquets is a defensive midfielder, Pirlo is a CM. The role isn't really similar, Busquets has to do a lot more defensive work, he's almost like a third centre back at times. His short passing is also a lot better than Pirlo's, but Pirlo has a better array of passing.
You can't really compare them tbh.
The only player Pirlo can be compared to in Spain's team is Xavi.
Pirlo's been quality for years, he's standing out in this tournamnet as he's dictating every game he's played in on his own, leading a really infancied Italy to the final.
It's similar to the affect Canavaro had on the WC winning team in 2006.
Xavi's amazing but I'd put Pirlo in the same bracket as him, Pirlo's running the midfield on his own and Xavi does something similar but he's got the other quality players around him which helps him do his stuff, Iniesta and Alonso make up a top 3 man midfield while Pirlo does it in more of a 2 man middle although De Rossi is a decent partner.
Pirlo's hair is fantastic.... I am 3 years older than him and am just jealous.......I am going the way of Terry Nutkins...

No, I'm not joking.
Don't tell me you actually rate Llorente?
