Former Inter midfielder Felipe Melo addressed his absence from the Brazilian national team at his official Palmeiras presentation on Tuesday: “I was the best midfielder in Italy, There wasn’t a coach who had the courage to select me for the Seleçao. But now Brazil is well placed with the coach and their collaborator Sylvinho, whom I worked with at Inter. But now Palmeiras is my national team.”

This is why he’s a lord.
you had your moments.. but the best!!! come on………
If my memory is good, Melo was playing in WC 2010, and got a red card (obviously) against Netherlands, when Sneijder was a hero of that game. I could understand if Milito or Zanetti (for not playing in any World Cup) have said this, but him? Melo had a great career considering his behaviour.
I think he probably meant during his stint with Fiorentina, before his move to pink mafioso
