I think today's game against Arsenal shows how important Marouane Fellaini is.
Some say he's not good enough to be starting for United, but he's such an good option to have on the bench.
More often than not, when teams are searching for a goal in the last 10-15 minutes, they will launch balls into the box.
This is where Fellaini is an asset for us, and someone we should be looking to bring on if/when this happens.
Mourinho admitted after the game that he would have put Fellaini on if he was on the bench today. ‘If I had Fellaini I would have played Fellaini for the last 10 or 15 minutes in that area'.
This is not to say Giroud would have not scored the goal if Fellaini was on the pitch today, but time and time again, Fellaini has been such an important player for us in defending crosses into the box.
According to whoscored.com, Fellaini has won the most aerial duels per game (3.9) in our team.
