I think I'd argue that he's been our best player over the course of the season. Who else is there? Krasic was phenomenal early, but hit the rocks for quite awhile and was totally ineffective, Qtube took the knock, Chiello's been off covering three positions, Alex doesn't feature enough anymore...
For me, I think it's Melo. Yup. I'm comfortable saying that Felipe Melo has been our most consistent performer this year.
Which is crazy, when you consider what happened last year. It's also another good reminder why it's often not a good idea to sell a player after ONE season, and yes, I obviously still contend that selling Diego - especially in the manner he was sold - was a terrible decision.
