    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    we do have a few players able to make smart runs... marchisio, alex, matri, pepe that's it pretty much... if those are able to convert a killer pass played above the defense remains to be seen, while i actually only have doubts on pepes ability to charge down such a ball... marchisio has shown...

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    sahin already tried to break into dortmunds first squad 6 years ago and flopped badly (although you could see glimpses of his ability) now after a big loan spell and the time in dortmund he is hardly a guarantee... he might as well flop again when the going gets tough just like he did in his...

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    thats the most important point here ... we would not get any noteworthy player in that position anyways without the champions league, so we might as well save the money from the aquilani-deal and put it onto places where we actually can improve easier without investing too much (namely the full...

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    according to CdS it's a done deal and i see this is a good thing. get rid of that ballerina aquilani and gain some needed class and leadership. we would not get any better player for that position anyways considering we are missing out on champions league ....

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    i don't really understand that someone is actually rating the performance of pirlo lower then aquilanis... if you follow juve enough you would actually see that aquilani does very few killer passes (he does not even attempt them often enough), while pirlo . . . but it's useless, because...

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    i have watched enough juve-games this season (perhaps missed 2 matches) and i saw that aquilani does perhaps achieve a pirlo-esqe over the defense-ball once every 5 matches. the passing of pirlo (and this is something that stays regardless of age) is at least on class better then aquilanis. how...

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    if pirlo is really done, then i wonder why the statistics claim that he is more effective than aquaman ? aquaman this season: 28 games, 2 goals, 3 assists, 2073 minutes played pirlo this season: 24 games, 2 goals, 6 assists, 1860 minutes played done or not ... he is effective and...

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    are our standards so low now, that we consider it sufficient that a player that was deemed to be very injury prone does actually play 20 games a season? i don't see him getting better actually. i think the problem is with his general attitude towards the game. either you are on fire and demand...

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    poli and cigarini are both unproven (even more than aquaman) so they would be a bad replacement. aquilani is just too lethargic on the pitch and does not get involved enough. from a regista i demand more involvement. often he just walks slowly on the pitch like having a walk in the park...

    Andrea Pirlo - CM - AC Milan

    if aquaman does not step up his game until the end of the season and there is noone better available for CM then i think a pirlo with reduced wages would be an OK deal, if we take him to get a shorttime fix until we get someone younger with quality. the point that aquaman has 5 years or more...
