Luis Suarez is back in business, whether any of you futbolitinos like it or not! Over the weekend, we spoke to a few Uruguayans about the striker's return to the Premier League and they all shared a similar nonchalant and supportive approach for the Liverpool man.

The Serie A's Golden Bin nominations have been revealed and i am quite surprised to see who made the list. Once again Juventus dominates the list with Felipe Melo ( who i thoroughly agree should be on the list) and Milos Krasic making the cut.

Others who made the list include Luca Toni, Amauri, Diego Milito, Diego Forlan, Mauro Zarate, Adrian Mutu, Santiago Silva of Fiorentina and Eduardo from Genoa.

Still battling that PR campaign which involves ridding the public of the idea that Turkish football is an abode of corruption and fan violence and a place where Felipe Melo celebrates things, they've gone one better from the "women and children only as punishment" for crowd misbehavior. So impressed were they by the atmosphere created by a soprano-heavy crowd, they've decided to allow them in for free.

(One minute mark.)

This may or may not be what happens when someone begins transforming into a werewolf. I'm sure it'd be easy to Google, but I'm too scared to get on some sort of worldwide Twilight watch list, so I'll settle happily at "I dunno" and be done with it.

Felipe Melo scored a grand goal today, began this frightening metamorphosis, then remembered his true identity Brazilian and began dancing.

The door is certainly revolving at Juventus. Yesterday began with the club announcing the arrival of Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal in Turin for a medical. Vidal is set to join the Bianconeri from Bayer Leverkusen for a fee of 10.5 million euros.

And as Vidal enters, Felipe Melo exits.

Juventus midfielder Felipe Melo has joined Galatasaray on loan.

Alexis Sanchez Deal to Barca Finally Done?

It appears the dismantling of the best Udinese side in recent memory continues, as star Chilean winger Alexis Sanchez appears to be finally off to Barcelona. Despite the fact that Udinese earned a Champions League spot this season, it is hard to blame the club for this sale.

Rossi to sign this week?

Juventus have made it clear that among their summer signings they plan to spend big on a marquee striker. However, without the promise if Champions League football next season that task can prove difficult.

After a bore draw against minnows Venezuela – incidentally the only South American nation never to have qualified for a World Cup – the wave of optimism surrounding coach Mano Menezes is disappearing faster than a snowball in hell.

It was a different coach with some different players, but the formation and the style of play were distinctly Dunga-esque.

by ROBBIE BLAKELEY

Brazil coach Mano Menezes has arrived in Argentina ahead of the Copa America looking to give the Seleçao a new identity,and the fans a reason to cheer, after the bitter disappointment of last year's World Cup.

Having taken over from Dunga in August, Menezes is heading into his first tournament as national coach with little doubt the next three and a half weeks will be taken seriously.

Juventus midfielder Felipe Melo has reacted furiously amid reports that he will be used by the club in a part-exchange deal for Liverpool's Raul Meireles.
Melo, 27, has endured a difficult time since moving to Turin from Fiorentina in 2009 and was 'awarded' the Bidone d'Oro - meaning Golden Bin, given to the player fans judge to be the worst in Serie A - during his first season with the Bianconeri.

Do you remember one of those class outings you had as a child? Where your parents would pack sandwiches into little lunchboxes for you and you had to line-up and listen to your teachers' instructions? Ay mi dios, the Dutch team is replicating this all over again! They have arrived in Rio de Janeiro to face the selecao in a friendly on Saturday (Felipe Melo, you're NOT invited to this one.

Just Football: Serie A 2010-11 Team of the Season is a post from: Just Football

With the 2010/11 Serie A season now complete and Internazionale Coppa Italia winners, time for the obligatory team of the season. Naturally, champions Milan are the most represented team in the main XI, with three players.

A star-studded lineup takes to the field to celebrate Gary Neville's career as Manchester United hosts Juventus in a club friendly at Old Trafford (2:35 p.m., Fox Soccer Channel).

Manchester United's starting XI features the likes of Neville, his brother Phil and Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder David Beckham.

In the summer of 2009 Juventus proudly unveiled their latest signing, the €25 million capture of Felipe Melo from Fiorentina. The Brazilian International was one of footballs hottest properties after an outstanding debut season in Serie A and an excellent Confederations Cup with Brazil. With Arsenal heavily interested in him it was seen as something of a coup by then Sporting Director Alessio.

That was a bit lucky. Considering how many Chelsea players underperformed – Lampard, Essien, Malouda (the footballing schizophrenic, either incredible or seemingly drunk), Anelka, Torres Chelsea somehow ground out a win. Torres was ever so slightly better, but there is still work to be done.

What to do with Riccardo Montolivo? Making his debut for Just Football, David Swan reports on the talented Italian international who has a tendency to frustrate.

Riccardo Montolivo has been something of a conundrum for Italy for some time now.

Guest writer Michael Morra provides a close look at the Juventus loss to visitors Udinese at the weekend. Udinese, perhaps the league's most in-form side, traveled to Torino today in hopes of continuing their January assault on Serie A. Conversely, Juventus was looking to get back on track and dismiss the thought that they were undergoing yet another mid-season collapse.

Conversely, Juventus was looking to get back on track and dismiss the thought that they were undergoing yet another mid-season collapse.

This upcoming weekend gives Juventus a great chance to bounce back from their bad run of defeats. Having only taken one point in nine the past three matches in the Serie A, Juventus need to pick themselves up if they want a chance at getting in a Champions League place by the end of the season.

Twas something of a foregone conclusion that China would bring the fun to the Asian Cup, be it from the realm of the not quite legal or shit-I-hope-he-has-a-good-lawyer. They seem to be as critical as anyone about their inspired attempt to combine martial arts and football, which makes it okay to fire them firmly under the bus.

Felipe Melo received a very deserved straight red card when he kicked the face of Massimo Paci when Juventus lost to Parma 1-4. Melo got three games bans for his act, and Juvy punishing him with Euro 150,000. (source)
Now, I truely wonder what would be going in Dunga head when he read and see this news?

La "scalciata" di Felipe Melo a Paci, al 17′ di Juventus-Parma, che ha costretto l'arbitro De Marco a sventolare il rosso nei confronti del brasiliano, ha portato il giudice sportivo ad infliggere ben tre giornate di squalifica al mediano bianconero. Parte male, dunque, il 2011 per il grintoso centrocampista di Delneri, re dei "cattivi" per [.

By Mirko Corli, writing from Torino

The first round of 2011 Serie A action came with a couple of surprises.

First and foremost, Juventus.

The bianconeri lost 4-1 at home against Parma, and this is a big surprise not only because Juve closed 2010 in good shape and with the will of doing something more in the upcoming year, but also because it is a defeat that can mean more.

Leonardo good off to a winning start in charge of Inter as Thiago Motta scored twice to help Inter beat Napoli 3-1. in a 3-1 success against SSC Napoli in the final game of a full Epiphany programme in Serie A.

Thiago Motta was the hero for the home side with the first and the last goal in a pulsating game.

Rodney Strasser's goal proved the difference for Milan against Cagliari

Little known Rodney Strasser scored the decisive goal just six minutes from the end as AC Milan finally got the better of hosts Cagliari in the latest round of Serie A matches. Earlier in the day Juventus were thumped at home by AC Parma whilst Lazio could only draw away at Genoa.

Juventus and Brazilian midfielder Felipe Melo was given a straight Red Cardafter just 17 minutes of their game today against Parma, after Kung-Fu kickingParma defender Massimo Paci in the face.
Parma had the last laugh though as they beat Juve 4-1.

Felipe Melo has done it again. The 27 year old Brazilian is known for his fiery character and violent conduct, the most famous being during the 2010 World Cup where his stomp on Arjen Robben got him a straight red card as his team lost 2-1. Serie A returned from its winter break today to [...]

One-time Arsenal transfer target Felipe Melo is getting a rep as a total mentalist. Indeed, the Brazilian midfielder is far from 'mellow'...

... Ahem. Melo was sent off at the 2010 World Cup (sooo last year) for Brazil, and this week saw red for a blatant kick in the face of Parma's Massimo Paci.
