Felipe Melo Wins the 2009 Bidone d'Oro!

[Ataraxia]

Still not convincing. Look at what Aquiliani cost Liverpool, they knew he was injury prone and they even fear to put him in "physical games". At least at the very worst Melo is still average and is not pulling Juve down. You are just being ridiculous with this. If Juve come back, Melo will look like a hero so as Diego. If you want to blame the newcomers do it, but you might want to start with that big guy in the front called Amauri who is on a challenge with Chiellini to see who scores more goals for Juve this season.

First in your group is barely managing to qualify?

Yeh but you compared them to the other football teams. Roma were only embarrassed after qualifying which they did more often than Fiorentina. So as the other teams, they qualify every time. Now you did and will face the big teams, good on you. Let's see how you can hold it up. Failing to qualify is worse than getting embarrassed.

Yeh, now when Juventus get their shit together , everyone will praise Melo again. Actually, if you want to be reasonable, Melo has been really good. He even scored two great goals. You just want to bash him and act as if Fiorentina acted wisely. Besides Fiorentina can't be embarrassed when they barely manage to qualify. Let them face Manchester United or a decent team and let's see how terrible they'll look. I'm not being arrogant. It's just a cheap way to attack Melo and make your beloved Fiorentina look like some sort of masterminds. They are still shit and Melo managed to leave that shit to a better team.

I don't think Milan are great or whatever recently but being defeated by Palermo would never hurt Milan. Remember Chelsea got beaten by Wigan ( the same team that lost 9-1 to Tottenham and Manchester lost to Burnley). Big teams lose all the time. I just hate those cheap attacks you make when your team has proved to be at most half as good as the big teams.
I'm also not a Pato fanboy, but at least he's a footballer. Jovetic is just a clown on the field.

I wanted to say that to La furia put couldn't paragraph it as expertly as this.

Still bitter?

I'm sorry, but Melo was still a terrible signing. Just because Diego and Amuari are equally terrible Brazilian football players doesn't mean Melo wasn't a solid choice for the award, since neither of them cost Juve two useful role players. Melo's only real competition IMO was Huntelaar.

The bidone d'Oro never goes to the legitimate worst player in the league, outside of Quaresma last year who was genuinely worthless, and even then Mancini was just as bad, but cheaper. Adriano won it twice because he was an alcoholic train wreck, not because he was the worst player in Italy.

 

[House of Flies]

Ed should be the last person commenting on Fiorentina

 

[AnfieldEd]

Bitter at what?

 

[La Furia]

Bitter at what?

That you got knocked out of Europe by a small, insignificant club without the great Felipe Melo to lead them to victory?

 

[AnfieldEd]

I am glad you recognise fiorentina are insignificant. They did well against us so I congratulated them. What do you want? a cookie?

Can you explain that too ? How a player who saved a team's ass in one minute after getting substituted i minute 82 deserves such an award. He is just not given a chance. I think he should move to some team he can play as first player. The only time Huntelaar was given a chance was as substitute ( a late one too) and in the beginning of the season when Milan as a whole were performing badly. Even with that, he never got a formation to suit his play.

Yeah, well I'm not irrational, Fiorentina are irrelevant for the most part. Kind of like Liverpool actually.

He had one good game, that's exactly it. This is the second season in a row I've heard Huntelaar defenders bitch he hasn't been getting a chance, yet maybe there could be a reason that the past two teams to buy him have not trusted him?

 

[Super Pippo]

Give the cookie to an actual Florentia Viola fan, Ed. Not a bandwagon stow away.

We could all ridicule Florentia Viola's big transfers, but sadly they couldn't pull any off even with that 20m in hand, nobody wanted to sign for them, shame that.

 

[AnfieldEd]

Even when we are shit la furia we are never irrelevant.

 

[House of Flies]

Oh God, this is the second reason that I hate Liverpool.

You know even Leeds Utd fans claim that... look at them now... Liverpool is slowly on Leeds' footsteps.

Is that why two Juve players took pay cuts to play for Fiorentina? Please name one of these big stars that rejected Fiorentina, I'm curious to hear about them. I guess you can count Crespo, who was given more money at Genoa.

Just like Leeds and Nottingham Forest, eh?

Both considered him as a helper to the team for some reason. He moved from Ajax to Real Madrid which is not a regular move. Usually Real Madrid gets them after they matured and proved themselves in some other big team,. It was a bad decision but he never disappointed. He helped Madrid and also helped Milan, it's only them not taking him seriously. Ronaldinho was being buried by the media in the beginning of the season, so as Seedorf and Pirlo. Huntelaar had no backup. Suddenly Ronaldinho plays really good and Seedorf picks it up a notch and Huntelaar is not given a chance anymore. If the team is on a good form especially the providers, I am sure Huntelaar would explode.

melo is actually a decent player. better than some candidates. once again in response to the whole mercenary thing: i do think it was a footballing decision aswell as money.
