Juventus midfielder Felipe Melo says he is unfazed by his inconsistent start to life in Turin and has reiterated his claim that he will soon prove his detractors wrong, after being labelled a ‘disappointment’ in the press.
“If they rehash the fact Juve spent big on me, it doesn’t even make sense,” he told the La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“That didn’t depend on me. What depends on me is to repay the choice that Juve made by gambling on me and I know that I won’t betray that faith.
“No-one will regret the investment that was made.”
Melo showed his true colours before the international break by turning in a magnificent performance in a 5-2 win over Atalanta.
He also netted a spectacular goal from distance to take his tally for the season to two, but he has yet to find the net at the Olimpico.
“Scoring goals is not my duty, but if they come all the better,” he said.
“If I score at home I will run to celebrate in front of the Curva. Perhaps against Inter…”
Juve will host the Nerazzurri on December 5.
