Time for him to leave, and rightly so
That was my first thought as well, but Ole did mention the other day that Fellaini was struggling with a bit of an injury. That might be why he was only on the bench today.Going off today it's not looking good for him, Solskjaer rested Pogba, Matic and Herrera and still didn't pick Fellaini ahead of Pereira, McTominay and Fred in a 3 man midfield. Basically 7th choice at the minute.
I think he had a knock.Going off today it's not looking good for him, Solskjaer rested Pogba, Matic and Herrera and still didn't pick Fellaini ahead of Pereira, McTominay and Fred in a 3 man midfield. Basically 7th choice at the minute.
I agree with the McTom point.I am not a big fan of his, but I would keep him until the summer and send Mctominay on loan.
They are poor options, we need better squad players and in the case of Fred we needed a player of a higher calibre for the money spent.Pereira, Fred, Mctominay and Fellaini all look like poor options at the moment.
Noticed that too and I can see his point. If he's okay with backup role meaning getting on when a goal is needed in last 15 mins or an odd cup game I'd be against getting rid of him.First time I've seen him look like he didn't give a feck at this club. He always gives everything. I won't be surprised if he feels like the club is shitting on him. That contract thing made it so obvious that it was Mourinho who wanted him, not the club. So maybe he feels he has nothing to play for. Probably thinks McTominay getting a start over him is an insult.
Good. Hope it hastens his exitFirst time I've seen him look like he didn't give a feck at this club. He always gives everything. I won't be surprised if he feels like the club is shitting on him.

Can't say i thought that when watching him, i thought he played like he has done in a lot of matches. He at times comes on and just wanders around midfield without really getting into the game.First time I've seen him look like he didn't give a feck at this club. He always gives everything.

I agree, they were all pretty average yesterday.Pereira, Fred, Mctominay and Fellaini all look like poor options at the moment.
Keita, Fabinino, Ox. Those 3 didn't start against City. We are so far behind in that department. Not even talking about the defence.Pereira, Fred, Mctominay and Fellaini all look like poor options at the moment.
Well i'm not sure what you were watching then, because the 3 subs and Lukaku were the only ones trying to lift the tempo in the 2nd half.First time I've seen him look like he didn't give a feck at this club.

And yet he showed why he’s a more sound sub than any of those three duds in the time he was on.Going off today it's not looking good for him, Solskjaer rested Pogba, Matic and Herrera and still didn't pick Fellaini ahead of Pereira, McTominay and Fred in a 3 man midfield.

The other 3 were horrible so even if he did it's not saying much and he should be playing better considering he's older, more experienced and has played a lot more football than the other 3 this season.And yet he showed why he’s a more sound sub than any of those three duds in the time he was on.
We should just buy better optionsHe is a player who is going to be missed when all other options do not work.
If we hire the right manager and sort our shit out as a football club, he'll not be missed in the slightest.He is a player who is going to be missed when all other options do not work.
How has every successful side in history coped without Marouane Fellaini at the helm?He is a player who is going to be missed when all other options do not work.
I wonder how we managed the Fergie time without Fellaini.He is a player who is going to be missed when all other options do not work.
Funny how that option isn’t needed for Liverpool, City, Chelsea, Spurs, Real Madrid, Barca, Bayern, PSG.He is a player who is going to be missed when all other options do not work.
Indeed, we've not had a reliable plan A since Van Persie.Rather focus on being very good at plan A before we worry about plan B.
Startled by Ole's complete refusal to see him as an option.
Exactly this.I wonder how we managed the Fergie time without Fellaini.
Missed in the same way you miss the days off work when you’ve got the worst flu you’ve had all yearHe is a player who is going to be missed when all other options do not work.
He's the symbol of ugly football.Funny how that option isn’t needed for Liverpool, City, Chelsea, Spurs, Real Madrid, Barca, Bayern, PSG.
The only reason it has been an option is because we’ve played awful football which created very little in breaking teams down - hoofball to the big man should never be our plan B.
