Hard to say I'm not a bit gutted by Pirlo's departure, almost on level with Sheva's departure (a bit less), more so than with Kaka, I guess because I knew Kaka was going to leave us sooner or later (kind of like Pato), but after all the rumours and all the time he was close to leave, I always thought Pirlo was going to retire here. 
. It's gonna be even worse if he ends up at Juventus, please Andrea think it twice before going there PLEASE.
I dunno I still think he would've been very useful to the team, he still was relatively young (compared to the rest of the old guard, hence why I understand he didn't like the 1 year contract deal), he could still deliver good performances at mezzala, I think he could've develop wonderful chemistry with Zlatan (and he did), and for a good part of the time he spent injured it was clear we needed him...pity the injury happened...
Anyway, guess this is it, finally we're starting to make those big changes we never did before...with Pirlo we would've still need another creative midfielder, now without him we need 2, it's a weird feeling between exciting and nostalgia, to see us changing the team that I basically grew up with, but bringing in new ones that will write a new page in the history of the team.
Bye Andrea, and thank you for this wonderful 10 years, one of the best Milan signings (it was just genius), and a delight to watch him play. One of the last of his class available...we had him for 10 years and saw the very best of him so we have to move on (geez this is what Milan fans of the 90's felt when Albertini left, which I felt, but wasn't nearly as gutted simply because I arrived late to the Albertini days).
