No, it's a calculated risk. Football fortunes are dubious right now. Spending €100M on a Pochettino and all the players he'd ask for his new regime would be an uncalculated risk
Put in a cheap coach who can be a scapegoat if things go wrong while you unload some underperforming, expensive players in a global pandemic? That's a calculated risk.

Still, situations of Seedorf and Ferrara can’t be compared to this one. Seedorf came mid-season at a 11th placed Milan and Ferrara had a broken squad, more than we do now.
Maradona.. a drug addict who in general isn’t intelligent at all.
Milan sacked both Inzaghi and Gattuso and they’re doing great now. But again; situations are very different, both from those people and their personalities, level of the squads, (unrealistic) expectations of the board, etc. We don’t have a impatient board as Milan has.
With the additions of Arthur, Kulusevski and without a doubt a few other players, we still have a very good squad and much better than all the other managers in your reply (except Hierro maybe, but he coached the national team of Spain, totally different situation).

I've rewatched the video below and all concerns regarding Pirlo's experience aside, him being Juve's coach just feels like having hope for the team again. Having hope that most guys will give a damn about the game they're playing and not just few of them. Like waking up from a season of filter chewing depression and "it's a shame" misery. Yeah, we can end up in even more misery, but at least for now it's good to have hope back.
Lol a top 4 finish?
You think sarri helped us win the Seria a title .
That was all on the players . They done it despite him.
We are still favorites to win Seria A regardless of the coach and we are going to be on top come the end of the season.
The only question is our performance in the cl.

Those three are good for Eredivisie, their trident is very powerful, with Idrissi and Stengs and Boadu as center forward, Koopmeiners is the captain, scores occasionally, takes penalties, De Wit is also a nice midfielder...
Alkmaar's team is very likeable, most of their players are no more than 24 y old, with the exception of GK Bizot and few others in defence and midfield. Overall I enjoyed AZ a lot, very over 2,5/ over 3,5 goals bets I made in their games last season, almost never disappointed me
I would definitely like to get some players from the Netherlands, Boadu is one of them, I rate him higher than D. Malen from PSV, Ihattaren and Gravenberch look very promising teenagers, Dest and Wijndal as fullbacks... Youngsters with potential, not all of them would eventually reach the stars, but who knows, the potential is there...

Pirlo is a high risk maneuver, but if you've been a fan of the club for years and think Juve makes uncalculated decisions, I don't know what to say.
And lol at thought of us sacrificing scudetto ambitions and starting over with youth squad small FM team style, hoping we'll finish in CL spot. Overreaction much?

Ask anyone who has never coached before and of course they are going to say the play attacking football like peak Barca or Dutch total football.
Talking a good philosophy and Implementing it are two completely different things

But you make it sound like aspiring to build something the way it’s meant to be played (because as much as I can appreciate a good well thought defensive approach, the basic objective of a football game is to win by scoring goals which means moving forward towards your opponent) is just the choice of any amateur? The biggest teams in the world today follow that philosophy and so do the best coaches.
I’m glad that’s what inspires him. Lets hope he can pull it off.
