Well, Pirlo will be 33 soon and he can't play 38 games a season. We have to find a replacement for him soon. My understanding of the situation is that Pirlo is a short term fix to our midfield.
Pirlo has been elemental in getting the midfield where it is now. offcourse when the season went on, he had his offdays, despite beeing still important in the build-up play. and its not like he had to play more then 1 game per week often
having de rossi would make alot of sense. conte can play with the 3 forwards he wants, and we dont need montolivo anymore, as pirlo becomes the first substitute for creativity.
These nice things he's saying about conte all of a sudden and the fact that he is asking his national team mates about the coach are intriguing very intriguing
i dont want to get my hopes up, but its hard
