Felipe Melo (347 Viewers)

“Now, for example, we watch the videos of our games, through which Zaccheroni makes us understand the mistakes we have made."

Judging by the amount of mistakes we have been making (& still make), they must be spending an awful lot of time behind the telly. Heck, there must hours worth of footage provided by Melo alone.

It's a win win situation though. More time behind the telly => less time on the training field => less injuries.

They didn't do this with Ciro???

under ciro they did replay the games on a Playstation with FIFA to see how its done !

'I was tired after the CC' again and again and again. I'm sure he'll mention that cup next season also.. Retire from the NT if you can't do your job properly. Juventus are the ones who pays for you being a pro footballer.

 

[JuveJay]

No wonder he is tired, all the jumping about he does.

 

[BIG DADDY!!!]

I bet he gets a muscle injury in the World Cup since he hasn't had abreak.

My question is this. What about all the other players on his NT that didn't get a break and still performed this season?....

 

[JuveJay]

Not all of them, look at Kaka, Robinho, others who also are not in the form of last season.

 

[Hust]

But is it because of the CC? That is more or less my question. Can it be proven that the summers heavy schedule is the result of a less than stellar season that we all expected?

Might be a factor, having no summer break for a while. It probably affects players like Melo more as he has considerable size to carry around and get tired.

Melo is learning how to play in a new position, so it's normal that he is underperforming... If he played instead of Sissoko or Marchisio i think that he would play a lot better than he does know.

 

[Hust]

I think, personally and feel free to disagree, but our starting lineup incosistency I feel has been a huge factor in his under performance.

Sissoko has been injured, Tiago traded, Poulsen injured, Marrone barely gets a sniff, Camo injured, Machisio injured, DC a natural LB playing midfield, Candreva just brought it, Cacares playing RM...there has been no consistency for our midfield to gel and get chemistry. I think that has a huge effect on a players performance, especially one brand new to a team and as you just mentioned playing in a slightly difference position.

With Ciro they were watching Titanic all the time. And some other movies about ships.

Armageddon.

And Melo chose to give up his holiday early to join in Juve training camp so he could get to know him new team mates.
