Not sure if it is a downside really. Don't get me wrong, I loved Pirlo. But taking all into consideration, the fact that the guy wanted to leave Milan under Ancelotti already, spoke Spanish with the team in sign of protest and seems to me like a difficult and pigheaded guy with a very peculiar attitude - I'm really not sure any alternative scenario would have kept him with us.
Even recent interviews show how Pirlo is trying to push his Milan past in the background. Not mentioning his Milan teammates, emphasizing his Juventus years and friends.
I must say, I really kind of started disliking this guy a lot.
Me too. On the other hand, Maldini is class, saying Pirlo will always be his brother. While Pirlo has zero respect for Milan. Hell, he wrote a book just to diss on this club. I dislike him too...and it's been a while coming. Even his body langauge during the Milan Juve game was apalling. Look at Inzaghi, on the other hand...he said but good things.
