I mean i got that but wow. Pirlo was far superior imo.

Pirlo was done and dusted by his early to mid 30's. Scholes was near enough 40 and had to be brought out of retirement to win a league. Please do not let your hatred of United blinker you to how much of player Scholes was. Pirlo also played his entire time in the Italian league which even in 00's was a poor league.

I'd have Keane and Viera together, because they'd basically scare the **** out of anyone. I'd then probably have Zidane and keep the change

Zidane is one of the best players I've ever seen, totally different category of player compared to Pirlo imo. Pirlo was great don't get me wrong, but there are levels and Zidane was at the very top as far as the greatest ever players are concerned. Top 5 for me.

Keane, Zidane and De Bruyne.
