Regarding Pirlo mate _ its a matter of time not IF its when ... i havent really watched hernanes tbh so i cant comment but i ll take your word for it but im sure flamini can play an seedorf can go into a more defensive LM position - i am askin alot there lol but i cant see no other way of things working
We can't rely on Seedorf, even more pushing him in a position that I'm sure he wouldn't want to play in.
Its time to face the music the old Milan #1 midfield in the world thing is over, Kaka is gone, Pirlo has gone with him, Seedorf is not starting material anymore and needs to take a back seat, Rino is not the all dominating midfielder he was either, age catches up to everybody and our management must face that. That was our diamond midfield from just 3 years ago, the midfield that people on general football forums dicussed at length whether it was the best in the world compared to that of Barca.
In all honesty from our current crop of midfielders only Flamini, Pirlo and Rino would make the cut for the first 11. We already needed another midfielder without concidering Pirlo leaving, but now that its looking more likely that he will leave, we would need 2 midfielders, someone to replace Seedorf, someone to replace Pirlo. And getting 2 midfielder when they even struggling to get the forward is something that I cannot see happening anytime soon.
