I don't understand why we would play 4-2-4/4-4-2 when Pirlo is suited is to 4-3-3 and he should be our main playmaker. Playing him in a two man midfield IS just plain dumb. Our whole team is generally suited better for a 4-3-3, besides wingers (because we have 1 good wide player). A midfield of Pirlo with 2 of Vidal, Melo & Marchisio would be killer. Krasic on RW, Matri ST and Aguero/Rossi LF/LW would be top. I imagine Bastos at LB would also improve us greatly.
