He's gonna need a lot more than Bastos? he is'nt even close to being a world class player, otherwise if players like these, a past it and injury irlo, i can see people calling for his head very quick

Aguero, i.e. world class players he does need, at least one can rely on thier talent/ and match winners otherwise expect another season like this if not worse:wink:
Pirlo is not past it, he is just a player in a role that requires good defensive backing from defence, fullbacks and the defensive midfielder
eversince that went downhill with milan, it got worse on pirlo
if we get 2 fullbacks, rated for their defensive quality, keep melo or replace with diarra, and get bastos who'd do plenty of defensive work, pirlo would be playing with the freedom ghe used to at milan.
IF we could have aguero then, we would be extremely fastpaced with aguero, krasic and bastos(in a lesser extend) considering pirlo's passing ability
just see how many times milan scored because he launched pato. and every damn defence knew it yet it kept working.
we would have 3 fast players.
there is no defender in italy anywhere close to krasic or aguero in sprint
