What the hell. Must be personal.

I'd expect someone with more mobility to play alongside Pirlo if we're playing a 4-4-2. We can't tell whether Melo and Andrea would work together or not, but having two slow ball hogs in the middle of the park is never a very good thing despite their quality.

We'd hardly get 15 million for that lot, even in the unlikely scenario that we found buyers for all of them. I am a big fan of Melo and I defended him even in his first season, but I can see why he is being sold.

Nah, that's the Robben-stomping and Balotelli-hitting. He chooses his victims well.

You're underestimating the value of chest bumping and fist raising.

What is there to improve? It's his most lovable attribute.

I will be stating the obvious now but it is worth mentioning again. Melo will, along with Amauri, be a player who benefits a lot from our new system. Having players all over the pitch who actually move will definitely boost his passing game. He has already shown that he has both vision and...

Looks like a Miami reggaeton singer.

This was the best thing that could happen. Melo will now stay in Juve for sure.

I and Barack disgree.

Certainly not. Very natural in most of the world.

'Juve have to beat Fiorentina' Wednesday 3 March, 2010 Juventus midfielder Felipe Melo believes his side have to beat Fiorentina this weekend if they are to qualify for next year's Champions League. The 26-year-old, who was in action for Brazil last night against the Republic of Ireland at...

He'll be brilliant for us.

He just said what everyone here already knows. Hardly something controversial.

Party pooper.

Don't be such a pessimist.

You're probably right, but it's too late now. Melo still has a lot of quality and could be a real asset to us when he find his form again. 25 million was probably too much, but that shouldn't be a problem after some success. One outstanding Melo performance in the CL finals would easily be...

- He's being played out of position. - He's playing in a team without a plan or an idea. - The fans dislike him. - His confidence couldn't be any worse. - He has a few faults in his game. Mostly mental. Sort that out and we have a potentially world class player in Melo.

Which falls into the category of using one's head.

Melo has many qualities that Emerson lacked, but the latter was still invaluable for us. Melo could learn a thing or two, such as using his head more often.
