AdisaOwala:My point. I personally never visioned Fellaini in this role as he can be sluggish but he has been doing great. If we can pick up at least 90% of our points against small team we will be in great position to win the league. United is not bringing in any more player into the squad so let's hope for the best. Well if you not satisfied we can bring in Poole |

dopeJemi:Fellaini was never considered for the long term. Carrick played his best games for us beside Scholes because the work was never left alone for him. In fact Scholes was doing the dirty jobs and Carrick was supposed to be the DM? The primary aim of the DM us to protect the defence. You have 5 other players you can give the ball to and support but you want him to drag the ball 40 yards. There is nothing to watch about Busquets other than winning the ball back and releasing it. Nothing. Is it Fernandinho that is always out of position? And that's because he always want to stray forward. 1 Like |

Rashford played well yesterday, he's a good Lad, but it's too early to rate him ahead of Martial! Martial has not lost it, he's just getting back to form, and he's definitely gonna pick up from where he stopped last season. Fellaini is simply an underrated Player at the moment..... he has improved a lot under José, and so far he has performed excellently! If Mourinho prefers the Afro-Man over Schleiderlin, Carrick and Herrera, then we should know there is something really special about him. He's simply the first Player I thought Mourinho would get rid off, but he's gradually becoming an integral part of Mou's starting Lineup! 1 Like |

Please let's get 1 thing straight here! Fellaini is an average central or defensive midfielder! Even the early season form you lads are yapping about is virtually non existent to me! This Is the same brute that was at fault for causing our 1st official goal against us this season(in the community shield) and almost cost us the lead by needlessly giving away 2 stupid freekicks about 25 yards from the post! If only hull had a "messi, payet or ronaldo" type freekick taker we may have been 2-0 down by the end of the 1st half! His card count has already started stacking up! He got a yellow yesterday that could have jeopardised the teams efforts, and his needless elbows and holding players are red card accidents waiting to happen when we get to the europa league where refs are more heartless! His passes are always safe options, never any defence splitting or over the top ones, his goal count is minimal and he never seems able to make a difference when in the wall even if he looks like an iroko tree! The truth is fellaini is a "jose type" player for now, strength, height to make a difference during set pieces or corners, and one willing to unleash the dark arts in order to aid the teams ultimate aim which is victory! At man united we have always had DM's or CM's who may have been brutal but were good footballers: "bryan robson, paul ince, nicky butt, roy keane".....these are our standards and fellaini does not meet up! I don't know what "scheniderleins" problem is, because "carrick" is old and "bastian" wants to only watch tennis! If he could step up he would be the typical guy we need at 4! Fellaini has just been doing what fellaini always does! I saw him play games like this under LVG sef! Nothing exceptional yet, let's keep watching! 2 Likes |

AikayDaWrapper: The funniest thing is; if Rashford eventually replaces Martial in the Lineup and flops..... the same set of Fans would demand his immediate relegation to the U21 Team - siting his inexperience as the reason! A lost Fan was even asking for Depay to replace Martial! This thread needs to be fumigated! |

dopeJemi: The only thing that can cost Fellaini his position for a while is his injury. If we deserve more than Fellaini, then that person is not currently in Manchester United. Firstly, compared to last season we are winning more aerial dues than our opponents, and Fellaini is the one winning them in midfield where it is most difficult to win aerial dues. We have won 65% of our aerial dues in the last two games, last season it was the opposite. Last season if opposition wanted to destabilise our play, then begin by playing up balls and long balls. Let them come and try it this season with Fellaini, Ibrahimovic, Bailly, Pogba. Smalling is still on the bench. Secondly, Fellaini is not just heading away aerial balls, he is mostly heading them to the closest team mates, the one I like most is when he brings them down with his chest within his control.I must confess my admiration towards the way he uses the ball these days. Thirdly, his passes are okay. Do the dirty job and pass to the team mates who can carry the ball forward. So far he has done well. Fellaini and Blind are very good in their positions under Mourinho. But I have a feeling that Blind might be exposed when we play a DM who will have problem dealing with up balls. 1 Like |

n0m0705: I also doubted Blind. But he appears to have worked on himself over the summer. He looks a bit stronger and faster than last season, coupled with his intelligence.. Mehn I just pray he continues even against fast oppositions like Arsenal. |

The difference between Martial and Rash is decisiveness. Rash is very decisive with the ball while Martial likes to play with the ball. That is why Martial isn't fit for a striking position. He's a confident lad and he'll regain his rythm. |

Pep keeps amazing me! He's indeed a superb Manager I must confess! What is he turning Man City too?! Will United be able to conquer and paint the whole Manchester Red with Pep at the other Half?! September 10 is the Date!!! - we will see and know who actually is superior between Jose Mourinho And Pep Guardiola!!!

*Sigh* City leading 2-0 b4 the half hour mark. They ve been really precise and sharp all over the pitch in the first three matches so far. Especially in attack. I know its still early days. But the title race looks like its gon be really tight. And right now, i give Chelsea the advantage coz of the lack of mid week fixtures. And as it stands, only GD will seperate the top 3. We really need to start scoring more goals and conceding as less goals as possible. We might ve another 11/12 season on our hands. |

Lana1:You can't really say such things. In 11/12 we scored 21 goals in the first 5 matches and looked far above the rest. If someone told you then that we would lose the title on goal difference, would you have believed it? No. People should stop getting ahead of themselves unnecessarily. |

eph12: Scholes, carrick, Sergio, fernandinho all have one thing in common, vision and intelligence, fellaini simply has none An intelligent DM might sight a free player ahead and release the ball to him, fellaini would not do that, he would rather pass to the person closest to him, hence slowing down play, if you complaining of slow build up play, look no further than fellaini cause he's a major culprit Oga I no get time for long talk, fellaini might be doing just fine now but he's bang average, if he job na to form wall in front of the defence then make he no dey pass that center circle cause apart from standing in for set pieces, he's pretty much useless Later 1 Like |
