Andrea Pirlo is "inimitable" and will be back in the Juventus team for the Champions League tie against Galatasaray on Wednesday, coach Antonio Conte said after Sunday's 1-0 win over Torino.
.
Conte took the rare decision to leave the 34-year-old playmaker out of the side for Sunday's match but said it was all according to plan and part of his rotation for the season.
.
"We need to have rotation because there are so many matches and there are players who need to train," Conte told reporters.
.
"With his characteristics, Pirlo is inimitable," Conte added. "We want to move forward on various fronts.
.
During the week, Andrea had his own training programme and today it was his turn to sit out. But I repeat that I have great faith in my squad."
He is already a legend when it comes to football in Italy so we're used to him. He is a world-class player!
