Detail Review

Pace

For a playmaker CM, his pace feels solid. He isnot super fast, but quick enough to move into good spaces and track back when needed. In transitions he doesn’t feel slow at all.

((8.5/10))

Shooting

His shooting is very impressive for a midfielder. Long shots from his strong foot are deadly. Finesse shots are good but sometimes lack a bit of power and Free kicks though? Absolute class.

((9/10))

Passing

This is his biggest strength. Passing feels effortless with him. Long balls, short passes and through balls everything is pin point. Switching play and controlling tempo becomes so easy when he’s on the ball.

((9.9/10))

Dribbling

His dribbling feels smooth. Great ball control help him escape pressure easily. Skill moves aren’t lightning quick like a winger, but they’re very effective for a CM. He can even pull off an Elastico.

((9.5/10))

Defending

Defensively, he is reliable. Tackles are clean and interceptions are very good. His positioning in midfield really helps in cutting passing lanes and maintaining control.

((8.0/10))

Stamina

Pirlo's 4.5* stamina let him handle both defence and attack phases well. For a play maker midfielder it's solid. ((9/10))

Physical

−

This is where he struggles a bit. He is not very strong and can get pushed off the ball by more physical midfielders, His height also doesn’t give much advantage in duels.

((7.0/10))

Overall Rating: 8.7/10

Final Verdict

#Final Verdict# Pirlo is a top-tier playmaker CM/CDM. His passing, vision, and long shots make him perfect for controlling the game and dictating tempo. Just make sure to pair him with a strong and heighted midfielder to cover the physical battles.
