Where to start.. Going into FIFA 21 I knew I had 2 goals. Get Pirlo and get Dinho. Before the game was out worldwide, I had achieved one of them. Pirlo was mine.

I was thinking of using him as a RCM in 433(5) which I was using when I bought him, but I figured it wouldn't do him justice. I switched to a 352 which he is using with Juve himself, and put him behind Douglas Costa and Suarez. Right away I noticed his presence on the pitch, we all know how majestic he was in real life. It's the same in FIFA. With an engine he gets 91 agility, 97 balance and 99 dribbling. He also gets 99 vision, curve, crossing and short passing along with 98 short passing. Mix this with his already insane base stats and you have one of the best cams in the game.

All games were played in Division 2 rivals.

Passing

His passing is everything you want it to be and more. He rarely misplaces passes and picks out ones you didn't even know were possible to make.

Finesse shots

Like I mentioned above he has 99 curve. With that 99 curve crazy crazy finesse shots come. He is also clinical in front of goal.

Power shots

Something that surprised me was his long shots and close range shots struck with power. He only has 77 finishing but after only 10 games he has scored some bangers.

On the ball movement

He has 90+ in everything when it comes to dribbling. It is almost impossible to take the ball from him.

Off the ball movement

He "only" has 87 attack positioning but it feels a lot higher. Always in the right spot and making the right runs.

Clutch factor

He has 94 composure which I guess could be a factor. But he always comes up big. I have only used him for 10 games but he has already scored or set up late winners or equalizers in

plenty of games

Stamina

For a a cam that is set to stay forward, 84 is stamina is more than enough at this part of the game. I have only used him in 90 minute games though.

Physicality and speed

There really only is one con and that is the lack of speed and physicality. But I knew that going in to it. And you aren't going to be using Pirlo to pace through defenses. He still isn't slow, 80

pace with an engine is more than enough for me.
