So who does everyone think is better at the deep lying creative midfielder role, discount age. and based on last 2 seasons, i say 2 seasons because scholes has converted to this deep role in this duration and because both have in this time helped their team win the CL. i reckon scholes, not that im biased i just happen to support the team of the better player. purely coincidence. So who's the best at this role? |

Pirlo, though he started to suffer burnout after Christmas this year, he's the best deeplying play-maker around and was one of the only shining light for Milan this season. Scholes is good but i dont think he has the range of passing that Pirlo does, especially longer passes. Also Scholes was playing for a far better team last season, and was allowed to be rested unlike Pirlo. |

Scholes, I can't believe how well he has adapted to the role. I prefer watching him play that role than the free-scoring midfield role he had in his prime. Scholes will surpirse a lot of people next season. Bar tackling he has it all. Short passes, long passes, agility (yep) and most importantly nigh-perfect ball use. His partnership with Carrick is telepathetic. |

Scholes in his entire career has been better but over the last 2 season Pirlo has been a better player IMO. But I agree with Pinpoint in that fact the Scholes looks a lot fresher this season and will surprise many with what he has left in the tank. |
