We lack midfielders and what should we do.
Sell one.
Sell one.
Fellaini | Mou: "It's easier for Galatasaray to get me than Marouane. He is too important to me."

Meh, as much as I agree our midfield options are poor, I'm convinced we need to shift these bad buys out when we can. Hopefully will result in a replacement.
Maybe we will maybe we won't. I think it's wise to first buy a mid or 2 then sell Fellaini.
He's holding us back. Good luck to him though.
How do you figure that?
Largely agree with this except for Falcao. He gave his all for us without a doubt. It just didn't work out.
Yeah, Fellaini is a remnant of Moyes era. It's not his fault but I just want him to go. It's like Caitlin Stark's situation with Jon Snow. You're reminded that he's David Moyes' bastard.
I can give you a generic answer:"Having him as a squad option or as a starter means we wont reach the hights we intend to."How do you figure that?
Says who?
It's amazing some of the posts I read on him.
It's mind blowing.It's amazing some of the posts I read on him.
Willl miss the elbow.
I'll pray for Trabzonspor's' success if they take Fellaini. God surely listens to the oppressed.
My fear is this might be a smokescreen for them to put pressure on another target.

He's had a few good moments but in all he's been absolutely shite and nowhere near the standard we should be striving for. Won't really be missed.
It is Galatasaray. Old thread title
I hope he stays.
Cheers.
Yep I do too. I think he is a very useful option for us, and I've grown to like him. Not everything he does is great, but he has moments in games that are match winning. Granted it doesn't always work out when he plays, but I think with a manager like José he has learned his best qualities and when to use him. He may not be first team material, but is certainly a very good option should we need him.
Weird move
Agreed on all counts.
Tbh part of me wants him to stay just so see people being pissed of in the comments too.
I can see your one of these age obsessed people, and your completely missing the point of Fellini being a utility player, but keep on banging about Matic being a DM and comparing them
These Turkish stories are usually BS
Says anyone who watches football? Ask any of their fans you wouldn't find one that would take him. Look, he's a decent player who is sometimes effective but he's little more than a battering ram with a horribly inconsistent touch and not even as effective in the air as he should be for his size.
That's also my fear. Turks don't usually get easily mugged.
They are. Whether Fellaini is involved tomorrow might give us an idea of how far down the line, if at all, this is.
I seem to remember he signed a 1-year extension a few months back?
Yep took his contract through to next summer.
I'm amazed some people actually think there's a chance we sell him without adding another midfielder
Not a new one it was a 1 year extension clause already in his contract that United decided to activate.
If this hots up then you can rest assured we will have secured a replacement.I'm amazed some people actually think there's a chance we sell him without adding another midfielder
If he's Mourinho's darling as claimed by some then he would have been offered a longer contract?
First player bought by Moyes for a ridiculous fee on the back of a bullying physical performance against us. He set off the mediocrity of the Woodward years and hopefully his departure will be a turning point.
Pretty sure we'll buy another midfielder regardless.I'm amazed some people actually think there's a chance we sell him without adding another midfielder
Surely Gala cannot afford him?
He's a limited footballer. He's technically poor, lacks composure, footballing intelligence and isn't comfortable in possession. He's a good option to throw on if we're chasing a game and that's about it.How do you figure that?
He's a good squad player and has his uses (height, elbows etc) but if Mourinho can improve on him by signing someone, he will do.
Galatasaray now. Hate that club.
Can't believe it's happening though, extremely happy. His lack of ability stuck out like a sore thumb even in our worse sides post-Fergie.

You have used he is a good option to throw on, but in your previous statement you said he is holding is back. Again, if we use as a squad player how is he holding us back?
Would like him gone, he's useful but we can do far better. If he goes we need 2 central midfield signings.
Please be true
He's very committed but Christ he's awful. He should be sold for that miss against Madrid alone.

Are people actually worried that we're not gonna be able to replace him with one month left of the transfer window, and with unlimited funds to spend?
