12 Times Andrea Pirlo Proved He Was Human Perfection
6. When You Realise Everyone Else Idolises Him As Well
Its widely acknowledged that Pirlo is one of the most respected footballers sorry artists of all time amongst his peers, with, among others, Xavi, Paul Scholes and his BFF, Gianluigi Buffon all offering him their hand in marriage in the form of gushing admiration of his footballing abilities: Scholes: Hes such a clever player and so composed. Hes the complete footballer. Give him time and he will destroy you. Come on, Scholesy. Dont give him time and hell still eviscerate you. Xavi:I watch Juventus just to watch Pirlo play. He is wonderful. Right, Xavi, and to get tips as well Buffon:Watching him play, I thought God exists because its simply embarrassing how good he is. Youre his bestie though arent you, Gigi? Youve hugged him loads, you lucky sod. But by far the most heartwarming if not disturbing hat-tip comes from surly Azzurri team mate, Mario Balotelli. He seems to be as fascinated with Pirlo as the rest of us, highlighted ever so homoerotically in this wonderful video of him serenading 'The Bearded Gent' on the piano: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kA_0YmPYITo
