And the rest of the time with Pereira looked the same.Tbf that midfield played 130 mins together.

I don’t think it’s a lack of balance. Just Fred having difficulty adjusting to a new team/league. He’ll get there (hopefully!) but Fellaini is a significant upgrade on him as it stands.At the moment he is comfortably ahead of Fred, and should start every game. Midfield 3 of Matic, Fred, Pogba has never looked balanced all season, while one with Fellaini always does.
Yeah, but that's a different combination. Matic - Pogba - Fred barely played together.And the rest of the time with Pereira looked the same.
He's been good for years mate.I don't know what happened with Fellaini this season but he is winning me over. Maybe it's system we are playing now (4-3-3) but 1) we have looked like a functional team again 2) Fellaini has been superb every time he has been on the pitch
I personally think it’s specifically a balance thing. The blend of midfield protection and creativity seems about right when the big man is on the pitch. We look far more secure, and Pogba has looked very threatening at the other end.I don’t think it’s a lack of balance. Just Fred having difficulty adjusting to a new team/league.

No, he hasntHe's been good for years mate.
Your post history regarding Fellaini could be summed up like this:No, he hasnt
*shrug* it's still an annoying trope tongue in or out of cheek.Jaysus, that was tongue in cheek.
When Fellaini plays we have two DMs effectively, that's why. Fred is a little like a dog chasing a ball at the moment, he needs to learn when and where to sit off and cover space. Fellaini is very good at getting himself in the way of the opposition and breaking things up and when he is played with Matic its essentially two banks of centre backs to get through.At the moment he is comfortably ahead of Fred, and should start every game.

You say that but the goal came from a nice cross. It's unbelievable. Fellaini isn't the problem nor the reason for our type of play.Absolutely thriving in our chaotic shit stick football. Suits him to a tee. Can't knock the effort.
