don't wanna be harsh, but after the injury... marcelo is playing worse than drenthe!

against levante i didn't see any major contribution of his attacking wise and in fact the goal was conceded from this side.

coentrao>> for now

by Mamad Mon Apr 08, 2013 9:01 am

We know Marcelo's potential. he needs playing time to get there.

Coentrao is average.

This is proof you never actually watched Drenthe at LB.

we didn't concede the goal because of Marcelo lol. Levante countered after Callejon made a shitty crossfield ball :brickwall:

i know you all know that for the games after his injury he is nowhere near the same,

You answered yourself in your own post lol

He is coming back from injury and is trying to find his rhythm, when he does he'll be a huge boost for this team so I'm not sure what you're concerned about. He wasn't bad against Levante at all yet you're saying he's worse than Drenthe Laughing

seriously lol.

Coentrao is the starter and he deserves to be but if Marcelo starts finding form again then Fabio will have trouble holding his place imo.

MOM imo alongside Ramos. Great, great game from him today, incredible in attack pretty solid defensive wise.

by Zealous Sun Apr 14, 2013 9:45 pm

I agree he did very well.

Man of the match was Ronaldo though. Ramos and Marcelo in second and Xabi in third.

by buddytaller Sun Apr 14, 2013 9:51 pm

I thought he was very shaky defensively, his defending was reminiscent of his time before Mourinho, his positioning was terrible and his recovery was slow, He needs to do a lot of work to do to get back to the levels of last season. He looked very bright going forward though.

by Zealous Sun Apr 14, 2013 10:26 pm

A bit harsh in terms of his defence, I don't think he was great but he wasn't bad or even shaky as you put it.

by stront96 Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:11 pm

great LB but coentrao has surpassed him, coentrao is currently the best LB in the world

by LeVersacci Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:21 pm

Pls stop

by Onyx Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:26 pm

In his current form Coentrao is probably better, however Marcelo when on form is better attacking wise.

by LeVersacci Sun May 19, 2013 3:29 pm

He's been heavily missed..

Is he still injured? Hope he's ready for pre season so he can come back fit next season Smile

Marcelo

by guest7 Thu May 30, 2013 5:11 pm

Personally don't think he should react to their bullshit, I think anything that shows it affects you only encourages them to continue

by Zealous Thu May 30, 2013 5:13 pm

I actually think he handled it pretty well.

by halamadrid2 Sun Jun 16, 2013 4:51 pm

I am just watching different compilations of our players atm because I am bored but Marcelo ffs Shocked

Now I know why our attack was so crap this season(in fact I already knew Laughing

)

by Doc Sun Jun 16, 2013 5:44 pm

Never the sharpest defender (I honestly think he won't get any better when it comes to actual defending) but my word, our attack truly needed his talent this season.

by halamadrid2 Sun Jun 16, 2013 6:13 pm

Alonso gone Kondogbia/Illaramendi in they will continue to cover for him like Alonso did before. Also if we will play 4-2-2-2 Ronaldo will be furthest forward Proud

Dude is a joy to watch. He is probably the only fullback who doesn't pass the ball back to the cb the moment alot of opposition players start to crowd him or the one infront of him (Ronaldo). he always has a way out of every mess. I hope the cknfederations cup doesn't tire him out although that will be his opportunity to lose a couple of pounds after being out for so long

I liked him against Japan. Looked like his old self.

Marcelo is the greatest Left Back in the world. This guy is my love (among many others). There are very few players who can give me as much joy as Marcelo does when he plays. He is just pure gold..

by Valkyrja Thu Jun 20, 2013 4:18 pm

Was he bad against Mexico ? I'm talking about the attacking part

by Ganso Thu Jun 20, 2013 4:58 pm

attacking wise he was great, people are criticizing him for the obvious reasons
