And he started that game because Herrera got himself injured in the first leg. How can anyone not like Fellaini? What’s not to like about him?
I meant the people celebrating it!
Maybe because he says stuff like this:
He is completely delusional. If any player came out with this crap during Fergie's time he'd have kicked them out of the door.
Even Arsenal are strengthing with Torreira and possibly Banega. City will add Jorginho to a already world class midfield. Liverpool like you said with Keita and Fabinho. Honestly if we don't strengthen in the areas we need to I can see us falling behind the rest of the top teams. I can see us finishing 6th if we're still depending on the likes of Young, Valencia, Fellaini etc as key players.
He was injured for a big chunk of the season. I'm not saying he's going to be a starter but this notion that he's just going to be a bench option is wrong.
Mourinho said he would need to sign a replacement if Fellaini left.
Lack of footballing ability, his nasty streak, his inflated opinion of himself as evidenced by the press comments.
Which indicates he's not going to be 6th choice.
The manager that brought him here, brought him to play the deeper role. His best role/position is for us to play behind the striker because every single time we have played him in the position he was supposed to play we have been massively outplayed.
It doesn't really indicate anything, just that Mourinho wants to have 6 midfielders to choose from and a 2 year contract worth probably 15 mil max is a more sensible investment than spending 30 million on transfer fee alone for someone half decent.
Because it's a transfer window where we need other things more badly than to replace Fellaini.In a transfer window with interesting midfielders available like Thiago, Kovacic, Seri, Savic, Golovin, Fekir, etc... We extend Fellaini's contract
I'd say he's going to be 4th choice.
Are you saying Fellaini isn’t important to the team? Those last 10 mins when we pump long balls into the box?
It's got to be sextapes or something hasn't it! -
Those sides wouldn't want many of our players. We could lose Fellaini on a free, sign a £40m 'replacement' and still not have a midfield anywhere near as good as those sides. I'd rather we spent the funds elsewhere.
Give over.I just knew Fellaini wasn't going to leave, I wonder how much begging Jose and Utd did. We are really becoming the laughing stock of football, signing Fellaini and wanting to sell Martial.
Wonder if Fellaini is too going to come out with a film like Griezmann, all in all a dark day for Utd.
Anyone who believes he is going to be plan B for Utd are kidding themselves, he would've made demands about playing first team football, who knows he might just be our new nr.10.
If we are lucky Ed will sign some Galactico to make himself feel better but it also wouldn't surprise me if this is our last piece of business for the summer as Jose and co will call this our third signing, last year we also only signed 3 players.
Well on second thoughts I think McTominnay, Herrera and Fellaini will alternate between 4th choice depending on the opponent and who they are replacing so some games he might be first off the bench if we're playing Liverpool and Matic is burnt out at 70 mins. But I think he wont get significantly more game time than the other 2 and that Matic Pogba and Fred will be ever presents.
Yes because you know exactly what happened during contract negotiations...
We need that option cos we don’t have Ronaldo, Aguero, Messi, Lewandowski or Neymar. We have Lukaku/Rashford who are several tiers below d the aforementioned players.
He is utterly useless in midfield, owing to the fact that he can't pass, run, tackle, dribble or create. Hopefully the purchase of Fred will ensure that the limited appearances Fellaini makes will strictly be as an 80+ minute hoofball option vs sides that are sitting deep protecting a draw.
This reads like a parody.I just knew Fellaini wasn't going to leave, I wonder how much begging Jose and Utd did. We are really becoming the laughing stock of football, signing Fellaini and wanting to sell Martial.

What the actual feck man. You seriously believe that we would need Ronaldo AND Messi AND Neymar to replace Fellaini's impact?
In a summer where Mourinho, Guardiola and Ancelotti moved clubs, we appointed David Moyes.In a transfer window with interesting midfielders available like Thiago, Kovacic, Seri, Savic, Golovin, Fekir, etc... We extend Fellaini's contract
None of them are remotely similar to Fellaini though. Mourinho wants him to play in a very specific role. He’s useful in certain types of games where we need an outlet and an aerial threat further up the pitch. We all know he isn’t going to be a starter and I’m really not fussed that he signed a new contract, especially when knowing that Mourinho was looking at spending money on players like Arnautovic to replace him. Time and money can now be spent elsewhere.In a transfer window with interesting midfielders available like Thiago, Kovacic, Seri, Savic, Golovin, Fekir, etc... We extend Fellaini's contract
Vs Everton (Away) - Conceding a penalty when he was brought on (very late) to see the game out - equaliser.
All made up mate! Fellaini is so good and we’re such blind haters that we have to resort to imagining scenarios to continue our hate!
We’re in a Fellaini thread, taking about Fellaini. Make your case in another if you wish. Anywho, this is some made up rhetoric I can get behind.
