Even though he kept it simple during the last match, you can see that he is gaining form again with his crosses. During his bad spell, he was making a mess from 5/6m passes.

Melo: 'Juve as strong as Inter'
Saturday 6 February, 2010
Felipe Melo has made the bold claim that “Inter are not stronger than Juventus, we just had an inexperienced Coach.”
The Bianconeri are floundering in joint fifth place and crashed out of both the Champions League and Coppa Italia.
“It is wrong to say that Inter are stronger than Juventus,” Melo told Brazilian site globoesporte.com.
“We beat them in Turin before Christmas and the Coppa Italia quarter-final was also in the balance, so we could’ve won that too.
“The truth is that we are a team under construction and were handed to an inexperienced Coach, whereas Inter have been together for longer and have a great tactician on the bench.”
Melo has been blamed by some quarters for the poor campaign so far, along with fellow summer signing Diego.
Instead when speaking to the Brazilian media he seems to suggest Ciro Ferrara was at fault for this disastrous season.
Last week Ferrara was fired and replaced by the more experienced Alberto Zaccheroni.
Melo will have a point to prove this evening, as he is one of the only available midfielders for the trip to Livorno.
Momo Sissoko is suspended along with Zdenek Grygera, while the injury list extends to Vincenzo Iaquinta, Mauro Camoranesi, David Trezeguet, Christian Poulsen, Claudio Marchisio and Hasan Salihamidzic.

Melo hasn't showed any intelligence on the pitch and I actually never expected from him to do it off the pitch. I'm starting to dislike this player more and more. He should stop moaning and start caring about not loosing his spot when Marchisio and Poulsen is back. We surely would've been closer to Inter if Melo had played like 20million midfielder, he should look at himself first.
We're not as strong as Inter, not even close! Sampdoria beat them too, are they also stronger than Inter?
Were you handed to an inexperienced coach who asked you to misplace simple passes and do magical backheels in our penalty area?
Stupid comments. I wish he learns how to comment properly like DP, Buffon and Chiellini or at least his countryman Diego.

He has made some silly/unnecessary comments... of course being a footballer, all too often that's par for the course.
Still, little by little this guy is slowly starting to come around. So here's a big Forza Melo. We badly need him to play up to his potential.
Hopefully when I wake up, he'll be ready to knock the shit out of Livorno. We need a fucking win, and to accomplish that, he's likely going to have to boss that midfield tomorrow. Err... today. I'm actually a bit nervous to see what Zac comes up with... hopefully it will involve Seba. Time for sleep.

But I already read it, that's why I didn't like his comments. I can't dislike something until I see or read it! If you mean don't comment on what he said, well, that's just stupid with all due respect, this is a forum created to make you able to disscus things.
Melo needs to start playing well before blaming others.
