The Liverpool midfielder thinks their winning mentality is the crucial trait that keeps them pushing for the best. “Their mentality is tremendous,” Arthur Melo said. He currently plays with the likes of Mohamed Salah at Liverpool. However, his loan spell at the Merseyside club hasn’t gone well. The midfielder has played only one game (around 13 minutes) with injuries affecting him.
Melo will return to Juventus at the end of the season if Liverpool doesn’t extend his stay. He still has two more years remaining in his Juventus contract. Melo also spoke about the characteristics of Messi, Neymar Jr., and Ronaldo.

While speaking of Neymar Jr., Melo said, “Neymar is skilled, he feints, and he dribbles.” “Cristiano scores a goal wherever he is. He scores a goal wherever he goes because he has incredible ability,” the Brazilian said.
“And Messi, well, Messi is an ET. An alien. One thing is out of the ordinary. I had the opportunity to play with all three and see them up close. Each one with its characteristics, some dribble more or finish better, but I prefer their mentality. All three are out of the ordinary in that regard,” he added. It was a fascinating take by the Brazilian on the superstars.
