Overachieved?! Going out in the quarter finals of CL to Ajax and winning the scudetto in a piss poor league?! It’s virtually the same as today, just that Allegri had much more continuity in his squad and years of time to implement his ideas.

This has to be one of the worst takes I have ever read. Khedira was actually a very intelligent and good player at the time, and so was Pjanic. Those 2 guys back then were better than any of Kurs midfielders now. Plus they got trashed 4:1 back then so nothing to brag about here. Both finals were absolutely miserable under Allegri. And you forgot to mention that we had prime Bonucci und Chiellini, a better Alex Sandro and Barzagli. We also had Dybala, Higuain, Mandzukic and Dani fucking Alves (who was the main reason we even got there. He actually brought the right mentality). The team is absolutely not to be compared with the one today. When Allegri crashed out against Ajax Ronaldo was actually still a good player.
Allegri did well as long as he had that elite midfield..
Long story short, appoint any manager, no one is going anywhere with THIS team. At least not with all these injuries. It’s not on Pirlo, at least not solely
