The former Galatasaray player has went in a few days from criticism to the exaltation of the fans, who praise him now as a new idol.
The player is very capable as shown against Verona last night, he sets the play and marks players, even scoring from a corner before he gave Mancini who wanted him so bad a composed high five and running to give his wife Roberta Nagel who was sitting on the new benches at the sideline a celebratory kiss.
Also when needed taking a booking for the team as happened last night on Viviani on a Verona counter attack. Felipe Melo is the complete package as a midfielder.
