Three weeks ago, Lucas Melano was the talk of Portland, but for mostly wrong reasons. There was a buzz about the Argentinian returning to his home country on either a loan or transfer. Fans, including myself, were critical of his play at times, pointing about his inability to constantly stay involved in the game. All this was capped off by his ineffective performance against the Chicago Fire in a game where the team needed him to step up. However, after two goals in two games and a strong second half against the Houston Dynamo where he was dynamic and dangerous, Melano seems to be finding his footing in the Rose City.
