And what has Pirlo shown to suggest he's the man for the long run?

Where is this blind belief coming from?

His ideas are just on paper. I didn't even see an ounce of his supposed potential in our games. Signing a couple of players isn't going to change much.

This is a club that aims to win every year. We are not Arsenal to wait for a coach to implement his 'philosophy' while wasting several years in mediocrity.
We don't have the money to build a CL winning team.. Look at the finalists this year: the two biggest spenders on the transfer market..

So what do you do? You dont put all your money on that target. You accept it will take time to get back on track and plan for the longer runs..

I would rather hire a manager with ideas of how he wants to play, over someone whos always adapting to the players at his disposal. Pirlo wanted an aggressive, possession based style of football, and didnt have the right players for it. Max would have gotten us better results for sure, but in given the right kind of players, I believe Pirlos ideal 11 players would trash an adapted Max side. Im not all against Max, but we criticised him for never showing a style of football, and always getting the result, just barely. We are Juventus, and we need to win comfortably, not a narrow 0-1 away to provincial sides. Pirlos ideas are long term, Max's ideas are temporary. We need to go through with this project that was started last year, sign the missing pieces, and trust that its not a managers job to motivate the players, it should be themselves and a stadium of 50k fans..
That makes sense. That's what got Pep itles. That's what got Mouronhio his. The distinction worth making is tis Mouronhio by and large got his squads adopting his style and Pep gradually bought the suitable players.

But Pirlo got stitched up with a junior, unproven, unbalanced mixfidld. His philosophy is possessing the ball. And the midfield plays the greatest role in thst endeavour. I ttust Pirlo. Players respect him, he's highly intelligent. He knows intimately what makes a champion squad..

Frenkie de Jong has indicated to the Barcelona board that he wants to leave the club. His preferred destination is Juventus. He wants to link up with De Ligt, and his inspiration Andrea Pirlo. De Jong also rates Chiesa and wants to play with him. Updates to follow
