No arguments there. And Del Piero was no more selfish then any other of our forwards this year, but we are not talking about ball hogging or shooting from bad positions when one could have passed to a teammate in a better position we are talking on situation where he went one on one vs keeper and in these situations strikers should be more selfish, in fact scoring is what they are paid for and they should score and if they decide otherwise they should make 100% that the teammate can score and not blunder the simple pass and see what happens.
And you shouldn't be unfamiliar with "he only cares about his personal records either". He probably prefer to score himself rather than gifting it to another player. I'm sure he tried to make it a better goal opportunity by passing the ball and he was right. The initial decision was good IMO, the way he made it happened it wasn't as good but it was still a great and easy chance to score.

Did I mentioned that he onl cares for the records? He made a wrong decision to hold ball so long, he could have easily scored or assisted if he would have decided to pass earlier.

Del Piero made some big misses lately, perhaps he lost some confidence with it. Passing was a better option anyway, imo. It was less risky because you take the goalkeeper out of the way.
I wonder why he never lost his onfidence when his freekicks were not finding the net. Why did he let Bianconero make 1/3 of his posts here? :D

Did I say you were the one?

Whatever he should have/have not done but he didn't/did, even my grandma would have scored that chance :D
