Yeah!! Easily the best Italian defender atm. Him and Legro are a good pair. Its just unfortunate people are not willing to look past Legro form of 3-4 years ago in judging how he plays now.. because right now (over the last year), he's been playing blinders for us

This the Mellberg thread surely you must be talking about Chiellini, right?

or may be Mellberg has changed his nationality

 

[yousef_s_e]

i was the best game with us ,, he is improving and getting some confidence

 

[DelpieroForLife]

Improving and getting confidence... I though Mellberg was 31 not 19

[Ahmed]

played well, even if it was Cagliari

Forza Mellie!

 

[Temimi]

What a match for melberg ... hopes that he continues that way
i preffer Legro starting every match !! atleast he and Chiellini formed a very good partnership

 

[Enoran]

Drenthe was several paces in front of him and was about to have a crack at goal.
One can see Mellberg speeding back and launch a tackle to deflect the ball away ...

Other than the 2 DP's goal, this is one of the great highlight in the match.

At 1:10 ... Spectacular !!!

Not quite sure why anyone expected anything less from him. The guy's been playing in La Liga, the Premier League and international tournaments for the past ten years.

TBH, I'm not surprised. But I'm admiring him day by day. He's not only a solid defender he's a tough defender to beat.

I know that Mellberg is a very solid player, but I was still very impressed at how well he coped at playing RB.

 

[CAPITANO]

really good game which surprised me ( as well as the win), looked more comfortable at right back than he has a center back

I've seen a couple of Juve's game this season (Pre-season friendlies, Serie A and in Europe) and Olly looks like he's been playing okay, but like I said, I've not seen enough to know just how wel he's being playing. So how has Mellberg been playing for Juve so far overall would you say? I tend to find myself looking out for your results and would like you to do very well in the CL now that he's there!

 

[Ahmed]

he has been getting better by the week...had a shaky start in the 1st game of the season and did pick up an injury, but he was immense against Real Madrid

besides his performance against madrid this past week i wouldn't rate him as anything great.

Enough quality and experience to play a monster match now and then and to be solid most of the time, but not enough quality to be consistently great and to cement his place in the starting XI.

He played an amazing match against Real, he was solid on the other matches and he was bad in his serie A debut (we lost 2 pts due to his poor covering but it's forgivable because it was his debut, as i said).

Good transfer, imo. Free transfer and we got a player who is good and reliable backup to our starters.

 

[reggaeboy]

Pretty decent, reasonably solid...GREAT vs Madrid and taught Drenthe a few lessons. Showed that he wasn't easy to beat...pretty decent backup to starters

 

[ZhiXin]

At least we got a player with vast International experience for free. A good purchase

 

[Sadomin]

He just won the "Swedish defender of the year" prize.

He's being spared in this week's friendly against Holland.
