They forgot it had nothing to do with Pirlo.

Indeed.

Depends on whether Juve fall apart like Italy did. There was another Italy-Spain match that summer where he was comfortably one of the classier players on pitch.

You people are not getting my point.I wasnt even referring to the scoreline.Admitedly the whole team and the tactics were poor.

Pirlo simply struggled in that game because he was pressed hard by the Spanish players.I honestly dint see that sort of pressing in the earlier group games in the EUROS.Maybe it could've been the case of saving their best for the last.

If they press like yesterday,Pirlo is going to struggle hard and thats how i feel in my opinion.Their intensity yesterday was on another level.

How is that related?

Obviously Pirlo is who he is and is great and all that but if you read this forum you'd think he was invincible.

Dropping Pirlo vs Barca would never happen. We have no other player who's got so much experience in this competition at this point. I think Conte would deploy Vucinic and Matri in attack so once we get ball back and we're under pressure Pirlo would sent long balls on them skipping playing in midfield. Our midfield is already strong it wouldn't be wise to kill creativity for more lungs just because they are Barca.

bro,

Juventus as a team is miles ahead of Italy as a team. This means Jvue midfield is much better than italy.

what is more you think pirlo/juve is going to play the same way with the same mentality vs barca like he did vs catania.

pirlo has been world class player for over 11 years now. if he was so easy to figure out he would not be one of the greats of football and have been in a constant important factor in reaching 3 CL finals, an Euro Final and a world cup final.

we saw what happneded vs chelsea away when they tried to press pirlo like that. it opens room for marchisio and vidal.

Making investmant in another italian club may lead to droping some club they already have, in this case inter our Juve. Of course they can have 3 italian clubs, but it can be a simple remplacement.

If they are gonna drop someone it's gonna be that little club from Milano, they are called inter I think but I prefer merda.

I don't disagree with his liability under pressure, I think things can be a lot different and really believe Italy sort of collapsed by the final with the injuries and playing with 10 men for almost half the game. I also think this Juve can be very intensive, the fitness work should hopefully be paying off soon.
