That's quite funny!
Even Rooney's had to defend him, I have to laugh.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

That's why^
Ok, then I would be happy if that's confirmed. And stand corrected then.
I am afraid they won't. He is the only player where I see myself going muppet in some form. I agree with you that in the 'Cristiano Ronaldo' thread we better discuss his performances and related things than potential transfer.I really thought these jokes would stop with the end of the transfer window but is there a risk to see them popping up during the entire season?
Can someone find the Fellaini and Rooney's cousin thing? It was one of the best articles ever written.
We have the funds, we are just skint. But for this case, I think we would have Fergie full force on this.
Scourned Scouser Natalie Rooney has revealed love rat Marouane Fellaini's embarassing bedroom tactics.
The blonde babe, cousin of Manchester United star Wayne said she first met afro man Fellaini when they were introduced last month by Everton youth player Jose Baxter.
Fellaini was said to be instantly smitten when he saw a pic of Nat's goregous figure and 32G boobs on Baxter's phone and began texting her instantly.
And it wasn't long before the Everton star, who has been dating long term love Laura Binet, romanced Nat, 19..... by asking her to get her bum out.
The Everton star even dropped his own trousers on their first date. "He kept saying, 'Don't be shy - I will show you mine," complained Nat.
Natalie told the News of the World: "It was so exciting dating my favourite player, but he was only interested in one thing - sex.
"But the sneak didn't tell me he had a girlfriend back in Belgium.
"Had I known I wouldn't have gone near him. Then he had the cheek to dump ME!"
"He would text me in broken English, he wrote: "Com please me only my family no hier Please for me babe."
She agreed to go to his plush flat by Liverpool's Princess Dock.
Nat said: "I thought he looked like Screech the geek from Saved By The Bell, so was a bit 'whatever' about it.
But Fellaini's chat up lines didn't get any smoother and asked the buxom babe if he could see her rear.
"He was trying to say he had seen my bum in a photo and asked if he could see it in real life." said Nat.
"I told him 'no way'. Then he dropped his trousers and mooned right at me. He did have a lovely bum and I slapped it - but still refused to show him mine!"
"He asked to see my boobs, and I love getting them out so I showed him. He said, 'Big, very big!'"
And next week they'll be even BIGGER when Nat flies out to Mills & Mills clinic on the Costa del Sol for a second £3,500 bra-busting op taking her up to a 32JJ.

Forgot how hilarious it was.
What about the story where he wanted to leave Liverpool because the scouse birds were all over him 24-7?
"Big, very big!" .
. She has some nice jugs right enoughWill there be a press conference for him or do we have to wait until next managers presser?
If anything I'm glad we don't have the face the big old lump twice a season. The last couple of seasons he's cost us 2-3 points.
the guy seems excited and overwhelmed...me likes...apart from a funny interview.
His English is poor though.
Awe inspiring.
Disagree with that, his English is fine. it's not easy for English players to give interviews and even they often stumble over their words. Also, a lot of foreign players will understand quite a lot more than they are able to speak comfortably.
Edit: I also don't think what Rooney said via facebook was "defending" Fellaini at all. I think what he meant was that he's a much better footballer technically than he is given credit for. Lots of people see him as just a target man or someone who will bully the opposition but he has decent feet and his passing is underrated.
He doesn't sound enough like Phil Lynott though, can something be done about that?
Why the feck are they both whispering?
Is he really assigned number 31? Looks shit.
Some guy from RedIssue was retweeted by Terry Christian earlier suggesting that the deal was going to be spread over 4 years, now I'm not sure how reliable that information is but it does sound suspiciously like the offer we made to Bilbao to spread the Herrera cost over 4 years!
Not to big a fan of this signing to be honest. We've overpaid for him massively, and that's before even considering the release clause.
For £27m, you want a midfielder who's great on the ball and has an excellent technique. Providing he plays in midfield for us, Fellaini isn't going to offer that in abundance and will be more of a physical player who does the dirty work. They're handy to have in the squad, but I wouldn't have paid what we did to get one.

Thank God he got 31, can you imagine the meltdown if he had gotten #7?
What is the point in leaving 7 and 9 free? I wouldn't mind having Fellaini as 7 and Welbeck 9.
After 7 and 9, 31 was the next free number (though I suppose with Henriquez on loan, number 21 is free).
Still think we should have faffed some different number on Macheda, and given Fellaini 27.
31 ??? Odd?
Means no 7 or 9, nearly no 10, and prob last season for 11 ??????
I spose it means Woodward has until January to learn how to operate the company fax machine (to fill those shirts)
ps. Welcome to Manchester United !

Nah he's not that limited at all. He's no Fabregas in possession but he's a tidy player and is more than good enough to keep things ticking in midfield. The creativity needs to come from the wings and our number 10, but theres nothing wrong with that.
Probably did overpay slightly but that's the current market for you. I would prefer to have Fellaini than Fernandinho for over £30million, especially considering their ages. Whole market is a bit mad.
Die.
It was done immediately after he signed, at 12 midnight or something. Probably tired after the long crazy day.
He's okay on the ball, but nothing special really. When people wanted us to sign a top midfielder, they wanted a creative midfielder who was going to be able to control games in the middle. I understand we probably wanted another defensive option as well, but while he's hardly an Andy Carroll type big man who can't control a football, he's fairly limited compared to lots of other top midfielders out there.
City paid £30m to Fernandinho, but that means a lot less to their finances than £27m for Fellaini does for us. To us, that's one of our biggest signings we've made money wise. To City, it's practically pocket change. I'm not saying that the market is full of cheap player we've missed or anything, but part of me now is even thinking that I'd have happily saved £10-15m in going for someone like Wanyama who could have perhaps done a similar job in midfield to Fellaini for a much cheaper price.
Sorry, that was a bit harsh, I just can't stand him.
No problem. I would have liked RvP as number 9, but fair play to him for thinking about the fans who has his number 20 shirt. It will be a bit weird seeing Fellaini in nr 31.
Probably get 8 a year down the line anyway.
I don't think that's what everyone wanted, a small creative player in the middle certainly isn't what I thought we needed. Of the semi-attainable players Vidal would have been perfect for me, someone to add some presence to a midfield that too often looks porous against much weaker teams.
He is fairly limited in possession if you compare him to the likes of Fabregas, but 1) They are different players and 2) That is represented in the fee. We paid £27million for Felliani but to get a bid accepted for Fabregas may have been close to double that.
Number one is the main point though, he isn't supposed to provide a creative spark in the middle and he doesn't pretend to offer that. He'll sit next to Carrick and provide a solid platform for the 4 creative attacking players ahead to express themselves. If we can get Rooney and the wingers back to their best we'll be absolutely fine creatively, and Fellaini's defensive ability in midfield will compliment that perfectly.
Indeed. Fellaini is a player who has had years of experience in the league, plus he's already worked with Moyes for a long time, which can only be a positive.
Obviously there's always an element of risk, but Fellaini is the much safer option when you look at what City spashed out on a 28 year old with absolutely no experience in the PL.
Welcome Fellaini. He's not to be blamed for Utd's incompetence.
He will certainly add some versatility in CM and is certainly a better option than Giggs et al. Hopefully it will give Carrick a chance to dictate games better as well.

If anything having Fellaini frees up Carricks defensive responsibilities, giving him more chance to get forward and let his creative side shine through.
