I’ve defended Mourinho a lot but that was disgusting. Pure petulance. So unprofessional. Just a dick move. Most pissed off I’ve been at him since he joined the club.
But we still don't know for sure why he subbed him, right?

Jose Mourinho lacking tact? Why I never.

I almost forgot he did the very same thing three seasons ago.

i would wait a bit before accusing our manager of something. Not that he hasnt that in him, but maybe a bit too early

Let’s wait to see if it was an injury first mate, no?

8 minutes and I wouldn't care even if he wasn't injured. Symbolic of how far our standards have fallen since Ferguson where we convince ourselves Fellaini has ever looked like a Manchester United player.

My assumption was that Mourinho had a change of mind when it comes to what was needed, and decided it was best to get Herrera instead.

Will be interesting to hear his post match explanation.

Fellaini’s reaction did look pretty pissed off.

But then again going straight to the tunnel could very well mean injury

He was hobbling around, the commentator said multiple times he looked injured, Jose put an arm around him, had a quick word and then he went straight down the tunnel. I don't really think we need to wait. Obviously injured.

Idiot. And that's actually a word one can perfectly use to describe your opening post. Fellaini looked injured, and if not confirmed, you have no idea if he was injured or not. You're just trying to cause further riot.

He is obviously injured, even if he came on and give a pen away he wouldn’t take him off after 7 mins.

Nope. Mourinho threw a strop when Eriksen played Son through (presumably because Fellaini was sent on to man mark him) then immediately gave him the hook. Waste of a sub. Harmed the team with a display of pure ego. So fecking annoying.
Are you just ignoring his limp or something?

It's a weird thread to make when we don't know the story.

Also worth mentioning that Mourinho has stood by Fellaini to a huge level during his time here.
