Pirlo: " Here is why I decided to retire..."
" I didn't want to get to the point where people would question if I was past it or not. What was your plan B if you didn't make it as a footballer? I didn't have a plan B! I always wanted to play football and I am happy I did so. Future? I have a lot of time to think about this let's see. I am happy to be home with my children. Coaching? It could be an idea yes but I don't know yet. 5 man team? I would take Buffon in goal, Nesta in defence, myself and Rino Gattuso in the midfield and Ronaldo (Brazilian one) up front".
"Best coach you ever had ? I had so many good coaches like Ancelotti for example but the best one for me was Antonio Conte...".
