What I do remember is him saying that United's failure to handle him a contract a year or so before (when he was injured) was a mistake from our part. Then he flirted with some clubs (AC Milan, Napoli, Besiktas) only for him to return to OT and sign a new contract like a good boy.
I don't understand why all this resistance about us selling him up. He's a reserve player, whose game relies heavily on workrate and whose 31. That would be enough for SAF to sell him (Fortune, Park, Phil Neville, Nicky Butt all left around that age) as workhorses tend to become pretty useless when he gets old. With the difference that Fellaini is probably on a good salary, he doesn't suit the manager's game and he's not really great in movement which makes him an average workhorse.
