A Message to Roy Hodgson prior to the Three Lions versus The Azzuri match at the 2014 FIFA World Cup: Pirlo is the complete footballer. Give him time and space and he will destroy you, If surrounded hell lay it off. If hes got room hes devastating. Even though Englands EURO 2012 game against Italy finished 0-0, we paid nowhere near enough attention to him. Pirlo is not renowned for his athleticism, and hes 35 now, but that day he ran 11.58 kilometres, more than any England player. He also had more passes (131) than Englands four starting midfielders. Roy Hodgson seems to have underestimated him in 2012, which surprised me given Alex Ferguson tactics previously to stifle Pirlo. We cannot make the mistakes of 2012 again. - says Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes.
