It's not just the pass itself (which, of course, is unreal in its vision and quality). It's the grace of his movement. His body movement is just so elegant when he pings the ball.

There's an arrogance there that comes with knowing that you can drop the ball on a penny.

When you say no else matched his vision, I'd have to disagree with you there. There's a difference in pulling off difficult passes and vision, make no mistake, Pirlo had buckets of vision but in all my years of watching football, I haven't vision like prime Ozil. Objectively speaking, he strung passes that elude everyone except his intended target. No one else could see where the pass was going, even commentators we're awestruck. I think he did himself a disservice in joining Arsenal, with his kind talent he would take an already polished and well oiled machine to the next level. I'm certainly not saying his better that Pirlo or Xavi or Iniesta, just saying the boy had unparalleled vision

Nah man, they were all very different players with different styles. Xavi was the short pass master, insane vision (long balls too, but Barca's style of play didn't encourage too many searching balls). He was the metronome. Iniesta was arguably one the best box to box midfielders of his time. He was all rounded, a shot in the foot for him because it's hard to pick out his best traits, He was simply good at a number of things. Vision, passing, shooting, dribbling. Pirlo was pure class, unrivaled distribution, long ball and vision. Played like a quarterback and tidy in possession, great ball control. Oozed class. I personally was a huge fan of Iniesta, ability wise, I think he was underappreciated (being in a star-studded Barca with Messi and Xavi taking the shine a lot, even in ballon d'or rankings). But there's so much that they all brought to the table that it would be a crime to heap them all together and pick one.

Present day players are trained to play thrilling fast pace, physical counter attacks with long passes, and the supplying player in most cases just kick the ball to an unoccupied area of the pitch and have a fast running teammate chase it for 1 to 2 penalty boxes' distance to retrieve the ball before shooting or second pass it. Pirlo on the other hand can make long passes even while his own team is on active offence (not just in a space exposing counter attack situation), and in most scenarios, his receiving teammates don't need to run more than 1/2 the distance of a penalty box to pick up the pass before shooting or second passing. Pirlo is a genuinely high quality, vision based pin point passer, and he himself is the highest definition of a passing maestro.
I spoke 2 min with him on a beach and cazzo che numero UNO! Passing unrivaled, for me always the best mix between Beckham’s flat and Ronaldinho diagonal fast passes… Il maestro! Also a humble and good person, read the book!!

Andrea Pirlo is THE BEST 5 of all time imo. This is personal opinion. There are MANY others that are outstanding, but Pirlo is literally the embodiment of what, in basic terms, a good 5 should be. He was very good with the ball, and quick enough. But the key was his vision, reading of the court and quick thinking. Always standing in the right place and always resolving and "cleaning" without complications. Nowadays we have so man teams playing double 5s for no reason. Or actually, imo, because 1 5 alone is not enough but also the double 5 is because each 5 themselves are not as good as someone like him.
