They are a good partnership and if our ambition is to finish fourth we could do a lot worse but neither are good enough to get enough goals and assists to turn us into title contenders.Fellaini and Young make a good and dangerous partnership. I say give it a go. Rooney needs to be dropped if his poor form persists imo.
In fairness the same may go for our attacking players but we have try and aim higher than fellaini and young, playing the ball to fellaini, feeding the wide players and crossing it in won't work week in week out. It's what you do when you arent good enough to do anything better and last season we weren't good enough to make anything else work.
Also worst pointing out that he doesn't dominate all midfielders, coquelien for instance had no problem dealing with him, neither did Everton who bullied him in fact. Put an opponent against fellaini who isn't up for the battle and and he will be unplayable but that will only happen a few times a season. There are plenty of players who are up for dealing with him and they will have a fairly good chance of stopping and limiting his impact.
