Legends in my heart Paul Scholes is one of many legends in the most prestige football club of the world - Manchester United (MU). Meanwhile, Andrea Pirlo is a legend in Italy. Although these two football legends are different in career, they still have some points in common. The purpose of this essay is compare and contrast between these two legends. Both Pirlo and Scholes have characteristics of the greatest footballers. On the one hand, Scholes spent his whole football career playing for MU. On the other hand, Pirlo played for Inter Milan when he was a child, became a legend of the world in AC Milan (AC), and now, he is playing for Juventus. These two legends always work hard and play with all their abilities and effort. Moreover, they both have normal lifes which few famous footballers have. They only play football because of their passion with the ball, and the have never ever asked their coaches or board of clubs about the position or salary. Although the two clubs MU and AC have many rivals, Scholes and Pirlo are legends of the world without any haters. Furthermore, Scholes and Pirlo are great midfielders with their own incredible skills. Scholes started playing as a striker, then became a central attacking midfielders (CAM) and finally, played as a box-to-box midfielders. Likewise, Pirlo had played as a CAM until AC Milan's coach brought him back to play in front of th defenders line and devised a new position in football called 'regista'. With this position, Pirlo has become a legend with long accurate passes which give his teammates an opportunity to score. Scholes has this long-passing type, too. Moreover, Scholes used to score with powerful long shots while Pirlo often draw perfect curves to score from free kicks near the penalty area. These techniques always make viewers shout, jump up and clap their hands. I always love the way they play on the pitch and their lifestyle. I hope that someday I can meet them and have their autographs. Many people are considering the question: "Scholes or Pirlo, who is better?" For me, there will be no answer for this question because they are both the best midfielders in the world.
