Tacchinardi: "Buffon, Pirlo and Del Piero's experience is more vital than ever in these last matches"
It's true, these guys have a lot of expirience, but IMO the key factor in 180 minutes left will be our midfield trio and the way they will operate (Pirlo's name always pops up in the "crucial players talk"). They were vital for us all season long and they have to be on their top. Still, there are some things that worry me:
1) Vidal and Marchisio looked tired against Lecce, these last few games (we played every 3-4 days) certainly left mark on them.
2) Vidal and Marchisio are one booking away from missing Atalanta game, and if they are able to go through Cagliari match without a booking it would be great. We would all be calmer having them aveliable on the last matchday.
3) In the first game this season that ended 1-1 Cagliari was successful in harrasing Pirlo. They went deep into our half and they still have those players that can do the damage.
If Vidal, Pirlo and Marchisio overcome these difficulties and play on top level like they did all season long, we will win the Scudetto.
