Look, if Pirlo is going to be one of the two central midfielders starting as Conte says, then we had better buy competent fullbacks and a world class DM. I don't know why Conte thinks this sort of attacking 4-4-2 will work unless we can control possession from start to finish. With Pirlo we will certainly be better from a possession perspective, but winning the ball back and being susceptible to counters worries me.
4-3-3 is the way to go, both for the squad we have and to get the best out of Pirlo.
