Andrea Pirlo is perhaps the greatest true Regista that has ever played the game; Sergio Busquets is perhaps the most complete all-round defensive midfielder. Different players, different qualities, but both among the greatest footballers that have ever played the game.

  1. Obviously that busquets is better to play under pressure , does that mean that if a coach have a player like pirlo will try to avoid building up from behind in front of high pressure teams ? Because now pirlo have only rabiot and danilo as midfielders but he insists to build up from behind

  2. Xabi Alonso belongs up there with those two, he's been consistently excellent for three clubs in three different leagues (that has to count. It's hard to say who is the best in that deep-lying central role but it's definitely between Prilo, Busquets, and Alonso. All played during the same era too.

  3. Pirlo is the quarter back
    Busquets is something else
    One of the most interesting guys ever,has absolutely zero physicality but makes muscle man look like little kids with his little movements just glides past them with one or two touches one of the most press resistant player ever

  4. Busquets is CANNOT be pressured, he play unbelievably in a tight spot, even when was being pressed by 2 players he still manage to find a way to pass or control the ball… Truly Magnificent

  5. and today people start saying Kante is better than BUSQUETS smh 🤦‍♂️. they'll never appreciate busquets.

  6. Barca may even get the replacement of Messi but won't getting the replacement of defensive midfielder like Busquets. Most underrated player in the history.

  7. Busquets great at press resisting and finding the line breaking pass in tight spaces pirlo delivers high level lob passes can play as advance playmaker, both players are slow and aren't that tough yet there technique and IQ payed off

  8. As they both share the same position, Busquests is more defensive player with line breaking passes and also more than that defensive work. But Pirlo was more into attacking than defensive. His creativity was phenomenal. And he was also a good free kick taker.
    As they played the same position there roles were bit different. So comparing both of them are exceptional….
