Diplomacy is perfectly fine by me, agreed on that bit, but one would think a player would show more respect to the club that made him what he is. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) It's not just the interview, all year I've got the feeling and vibes that Pirlo wants to rub it into Milan as a club. Had he chosen any other outfit, I'd be okay, but going to our direct most rival.

A player like him had could have done wonders almost everywhere, Italy and abroad.

Losing a crap lazy unmotivated player like Pirlo was never the problem.


Not upgrading was the problem. This Milan is currently so awful that a past-his-best Kaka and a slow "unmotivated" gay porn star fairy- who hasn't scored a freekick for us since 08 - would be instant upgrades (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

I say handing that player with a red bow to a direct rival was a serious problem

He basically said he wanted a change. What could we do? Become a different club?

He wanted a 3 year deal first. Had we offered him that he would have stayed.

The Club finally implementing that 1 year rule after years of giving 5 year deal to duds is why he looked at other clubs. Juve gave him what he wanted a 3 year deal with a reasonable wage (3.5m - much less than what he earned here)

Agreed Totally.

But please for the love of all that's sacred NEVER mention this Ladri turd in the same breath with Maldini, Kaka and Carlo as so many posters seem to do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

He's NOT a legend, he never was anything past a great (not even world class imho) player and WE (AC MILAN) made him what he is today. He was a languishing mediocre CAM at Printer and Carlo's use of him as a deep lying playmaker got him his success. He can't even claim that totally because Carlo surrounded him with Gattuso and sometimes Ambro too.....i.e. he was possibly the only player in front of the defense that couldn't tackle for $#!t. He was incredibly intelligent, has great technique and his anticipation was world class....but he brought BIG BIG flaws that Carlo knew how to mask for a while but couldn't maintain with Gattuso's declining physical ability.

He was rubbish in Carlo's last year. Utter and complete garbage and was a slightly improved defensive liability under Leo- who made the mistake of using him as a complete CM (i.e. one that could defend properly and not get beaten by every above average attacker).

Curse Seedorf all you want but he LOVES Milan. The guy F**KING cried when Tottenham booted us out. When is the last time Pirlo ever showed that kind of emotion for this club?? He's always been cold, emotionless and LANGUID. Seedorf and ALL the senatores that truly loved this club took their one year rolling contracts no problem.....but no that wasn't goof enough for f**king Mr I'm #1 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

He had to go to a rival warning us that he'll help Juve to win the title and win they did. I've never seen him here as fired up as I saw him in a Ladri uniform. Before players would get past him left and right. These days he actually tracks back and tries to get the ball.....Conclusion? He's WORSE ARROGANT MERCENARY SCUM than iBra. Heck at least iBra puts some effort into it.

I would take offense to that, but then I might have been among the few who called R99 fat. So whatever...

The gay porn star fairy, under a n00b coach just turned a bunch of ragtag individuals into scudetto winners. So go figure...

Nothing against gays...please no offense meant.

Wow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

The first and foremost reason why Juve are champs is Conte and the winning mentality he brought to that club (as much as I dislike his manners, I've always given him credit for that. I even said he was the new Mourinho in that way). that's clear as daylight.

If it wasn't for Conte, Pirlo would have achieved nothing with them. imagine him joining the Juve of last season. do you think they'd have finished 1st instead of 7th? no way. they didn't believe in themselves, Conte made them believe, that's all.

I'm not denying what he's done, he's given them that extra quality needed to win a title, he's been nothing short of fantastic every time I've watched him play. but to say HE turned his teammates into Scudetto winners is plain fanboyism and simply not true.

He said he has decided to change team since February. Our mistake was not trying to convince him to stay. Remember Gattuso a few years ago, he was so close to signing with Bayern, but Galliani locked him in his office and told him he wasn't going anywhere! We simply didn't employ the same attitude with Pirlo. It was like, "Oh well, OK. Good luck". And we all know why. cough:allegri:cough

[Fillipo Simone]

But I think our love to Pirlo and sentiment clouds us a bit. Let me put it this way: Pirlo has been hurt by our management and by our club, and like any maestro would do, he's now proving his quality. But in the process, he's done some not so classy things I won't forget. All his comments I can understand, even if they sound a bit petty; but his behavior in our direct meeting, where he elbowed his ex-teammates, dived and nervously played the whole game through...well, I must say, I've seen stars who got hurt as much as Pirlo but approached in a more classier way.

Exactly! Top post. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif) Thing is, all through the season, Pirlo seemed to be on a personal vendetta. Unclassy.

Pirlo The Wost of Traitors

Pirlo was just another player at Milan. Every time a big name arrived he became less and less important. At the club that made him he couldn’t be bothered, he couldn’t care less. He half arsed it for years but he went to Juventus, a team of no names in midfield and attack and he was the biggest star and with his ego massaged for the first time in years the lazy **** actually pulled his socks up and worked hard. He’s an absolute disgrace and a traitor of the highest order. It’s one thing to join a rival it’s another to join a rival and give them 100% in every game after giving your old team 30%.

Saw this at another blog. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) Though more in line with what Dru would post, there is some truth in it. Personal opinion, yes I know, but I to think along the same (if less extreme) lines. At this point I'd say Seedorf, Nesta and Ambrosini are the only true remaining club legends, who have done the club shirt proud.

Gattuso threatened to leave and did some despicable things to stain the name of AC Milan. And Pirlo, bah!

Ha, the man's sadly been out of the picture for so long (shame on Allegri), that I just forgot. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blush.gif) Inzaghi is most definitely in the first group - Ambrosini, Nesta, Seedorf and him. In fact, I wouldn't mind one bit if he wants to continue for another season, and has the physical strength to do so.

But if not his place as contemporary legends of AC Milan is more than secure! Whenever I will remember the Milan generation of 2000-10, he'll be a name that shines brightly along with other titans of the game!

[drucurl]

Put another way......Leo got FARRR more hate for going through more $h!t and being less of a traitor than Pirlo. Leo was given a worse deal by being made to coach despite his reluctance to do it, not given the tools to succeed and BLAMED when the inevitable failure took place even with a worse squad than $h!tlegri has at his disposal.

On the R&B forums Kaka and $heva were made to look like money hungry mercenaries for their respective moves.
All of Leo, Kaka and $heva did nothing nearly as despicable as this guy with his "point to prove" ($heva's Chel$k! badge kissing aside). So for the life of me I cannot understand the continued veneration he receives from a sizable sector of fans like kurt for instance
