Is that really necessary?he's like a cancer to the club, I understand he can contribute sometimes but h just hampers our game, any decent youngster would privded us with better movement in the middle of the pitchand creativity and better touch
You must be getting us confused with Stoke if you think Fellaini's performances have been decent. Some people have proper low standards for our club, it's embarrassing.He's performed well while Pogba's been out, another decent outing this morning. Pogba is back now so should go straight back onto the bench for Sunderland unless Carrick can't play for some reason. Commendable contribution.
Thats because we've got one hell of a hole in the DM role (some people still think that Carrick has the legs to keep on playing) and he's got the most attributes to play in that role.He's a decent backup option but for some reason our managers keep falling for keeping him in there as a just in case plan a isn't working. Ruins our play every time.
He must look like Messi in training.
Maybe you don't understand football as well as you think.Never a united player. Never has been never will be. Offers nothing. Legacy of Moyes. Why mourinho persists - as someone else said the man must be a mix of ronaldo and messi in training with Roy Keane leadership qualities
Fellaini doesn't play the DM role when Carrick is on the pitch. It doesn't matter though, when we lack a good DM, it's up to the manager to find a different system that works. Fellaini as DM/CM doesn't just not work, it also restricts our other midfielders around him.Thats because we've got one hell of a hole in the DM role (some people still think that Carrick has the legs to keep on playing) and he's got the most attributes to play in that role.
Oh I do. I know that Fellaini is not good enough for United. I'm not sure mourinho is either? Far too conservative. But hey if you like paying a fortune to go to old Trafford to watch him play one up front weekly and drawing games 0-0 then he is perfectMaybe you don't understand football as well as you think.
Pretty sure everyone noticed, defending corners and set-pieces is one of his strengths apparently. Thats 4 points against Everton alone after the penalty at Goodison.Anyone else notice it was his man who ran completely free in the box to set up their goal? Costs us in some way every game.

Agree.I'm sure we've all said this many, many times, but he should only ever be an 80th minute sub, and only used when we're losing and we've tried everything else. His usefulness for 10min at the end of games is not worth 80min of him stinking up the place. He should only be ever be played as a striker.
Physicality and aerial ability would be my guess.Genuine question: what do managers see that we dont?
Because there is almost unprecedented consensus among United fans that him starting in the middle is detrimental to the team, and yet 2 pretty clever managers persist.
I'd rather see almost anyone there. Stick Ibra back there. Bring Valencia into the middle. Let Blind play his Ajax position. Stick Romero in goal and let Big Dave have a go. Anything.
It makes no sense. He doesn't score, he doesn't tackle he can't pass, he can't run and we seem to concede more set piece goals with him in than when he's not.
His aerial ability is pretty woeful though, that's the funny thing. At least in defending.Physicality and aerial ability would be my guess.
Bit strong but he is damaging our game and reputation. Can you imagine any of the clubs above us playing Fellaini in their teams? He wouldn't get a kick at a top club.he's like a cancer to the club, I understand he can contribute sometimes but h just hampers our game, any decent youngster would privded us with better movement in the middle of the pitchand creativity and better touch
Not worth 100k and nearly 30m. He was our third most expensive signing ever when we signed him right? Or fourth?I'm sure we've all said this many, many times, but he should only ever be an 80th minute sub, and only used when we're losing and we've tried everything else.

I think having a player that doesn't complain when he's benched, who's training hard and is doing exactly what the manager wants him to do is rare (oftentimes I wonder whether he actually does what managers want him to do, because positionally he looks clueless). Issue is, we need more players that have a problem with being benched, because they should think of themselves as too good for the bench. Well and the obvious plan b, but I'd rather replace him with a striker who's actually good at getting at the end of crosses.Genuine question: what do managers see that we dont?

Agreed apart from should never come on when we're chasing a goal. Godsend for the opposition; slows us down, breaks up play with fouls and makes our play 100x more predictable.I'm sure we've all said this many, many times, but he should only ever be an 80th minute sub, and only used when we're losing and we've tried everything else.

Yeah why can't 2 different top managers see he is shit like I do, when I have zero football management skillsI'm a little worried Mourinho seems to have a tremendous amount of faith in him.
Why can't 3 different managers see he is terrible.
Then he should never play.Agreed apart from should never come on when we're chasing a goal. Godsend for the opposition; slows us down, breaks up play with fouls and makes our play 100x more predictable.
Veron was £28m. I think Fellaini was £27.5m. Rooney was probably about that in the end with his add-ons.Not worth 100k and nearly 30m. He was our third most expensive signing ever when we signed him right? Or fourth?
Mata, Berbatov and Rio cost more? Did Veron?
On topic, he can make a contribution occasionally. Very occasionally. But it isn't worth the totally inability to shift the ball through midfield whenever he plays, it isn't worth the hoof ball we end up playing because trying to play through the midfield hasn't worked (which he himself is a big factor of).
His few positives do not outweigh the negatives.
Mate every United fan thinks he's shit yet the people that matter can't........ it's fecking annoying he must have nudes of Jose and LVG that's the only reason he keeps getting pickedYeah why can't 2 different top managers see he is shit like I do, when I have zero football management skills![]()
Wtf... I get so irritated seeing Fellaini start and play the whole game for United. It makes no sense.He's performed well while Pogba's been out, another decent outing this morning. Pogba is back now so should go straight back onto the bench for Sunderland unless Carrick can't play for some reason. Commendable contribution.
Maybe you can enlighten the rest of us as to why be continually starts for MUFC. It makes no sense to meMaybe you don't understand football as well as you think.
Or they understand that he has his uses and that he is a decent player?Mate every United fan thinks he's shit yet the people that matter can't........ it's fecking annoying he must have nudes of Jose and LVG that's the only reason he keeps getting picked
