There is a danger of expecting too much from Pirlo every game. WHile he made bad passes (which, to be honest, are made by all players), he has some pretty nice passes that, though not deadly, will help the team to channel into the top field (despite being pressed and lack of space).
I feel that to some extent we ar etaking Pirlo for granted for what he could have done for us, and we expected him to do it every game. That's no problem, of course, except that we have to be mindful about his options.
