Felliani, man united fans come in
The name Felliani often brings mixed responses, is he really that bad a player? Remember when he was at Everton, he was a decent player, played as an attacking midfield player, when he joined united, he has been played out of position, i think he is a decent player by and large, nobody can bring the ball down like him on his chest, even in tight spaces, when he gets up front, he is more than an attacking threat with his height and he can lay on a ball or 2 for his team mates, yesterday, Pogba was not missed at all and will probably not be missed for all his wonderful technique, now we have Matic, i believe Herrera can play the Pogba role
Rigjt now, i think Felliani has proven himself and he is a big asset to our squad

So when Pogba pulled his hamstring, there were moans and groans from the United faithful watching the game with me.
And the groans were worse when Felliani was standing by the touchline ready to replace Pogba
The guy keeps proving fans wrong, good managers like LVG and Mourinho see something in him

I never thought i will say that Felliani was more effective than Pogba when he came on

In my opinion, Fellaini will be Man United's weapon in certain games, and quite a lot of them.marko wrote:I never thought i will say that Felliani was more effective than Pogba when he came on
However for Man United to be a CL and title winning team, it needs Pogba being the boss of that midfield.
Re: Felliani, man united fans come in
...Pogba is a play maker hardly score goals even when the chance is presented.
Felliani is like an enforcer and score goals when presented with it. Yes, he is an asset, on again off again type.

I CALL FELLAINI...
...the Prince of Reciprocity: you pass me the ball, you'll get it right back. Same way he played at Everton. Doesn't add much value; doesn't do much harm either.

Re: Felliani, man united fans come in
One can usually tell how much a fan knows about football based on their opinion of two footballers: Carrick and Fellaini.
Many buy into the herd mentality and reflexively label Fellaini as useless. Recall that LVG's best run as manager was when Man Utd eviscerated Liverpool (3-0), Man City (4-2), Arsenal, and Spurs (3-0) in the 2015 season playing Fellaini as an advanced attacking inside left. Fellaini was playing so well that he was undroppable, and he absolutely bullied Man City and Liverpool. I recall when Man Utd played Chelsea away, Mourinho actually changed his formation to bring in Zouma to man-mark Fellaini. That is a mark of how dangerous he was when deployed that way.
Fellaini is no DM. He can be a destructive wrecking ball when played as an AM in the final third of the pitch. When he played there for Everton I recall a commentator saying "he is wreaking havoc across the Premier League".
Three experienced managers in Moyes, LVG, and Mourinho keep picking him, refusing to sell him, and keep giving him new contracts. In addition he plays for the Belgian national team alongside De Bruyne, Hazard, Naingollan, Witsel, Mertens etc. Those that watch him train and play every day must know more about him than we do.

Re: Felliani, man united fans come in
All I know is that it was never a pleasant experience watching Fellaini against Man United when he was with Everton and though he had some horrible shows when he moved to United he has largely been a great asset to the team when deployed the right way. He is a real menace on his good days.

Re: Felliani, man united fans come in
People forget that he cost Man Utd the title in 2012. Man Utd were away at the top of the league cruising to the league title and City's manager Mancini had "given up" on winning the league. Then Man Utd played Everton at Old Trafford, were winning 4-1 with 10 minutes to go, and Fellaini just bulldozed Man Utd's defence and helped Everton come back to draw 4-4.

Re: Felliani, man united fans come in
One has to admit like someone said, play him as an AM, he will do the business, dangerous from set pieces, once his head connects, the ball is going inside, i guess Herrera will replace Pogba
So angry Nigeria got kicked out of the world cup once again, i nearly told my wife that i caught my girlfriend with another man today!

OK, that makes the discussion better.marko wrote:One has to admit like someone said, play him as an AM, he will do the business, dangerous from set pieces, once his head connects, the ball is going inside, i guess Herrera will replace Pogba
Fellaini is not necessarily a replacement or an alternative for Pogba.
But we can say he is an essential part of Man United in the current set up.
Both can start in the same team and make United win a game.
I have also always had a problem deciding on what exactly Fellaini is good at.
He is our secret weapon
Re: Felliani, man united fans come in
Yes he is, he has gained my respect for his hard work, so many qualities we football fans dont often see, just remember he is been played out of position for most of his united careerbenteke wrote:OK, that makes the discussion better.marko wrote:One has to admit like someone said, play him as an AM, he will do the business, dangerous from set pieces, once his head connects, the ball is going inside, i guess Herrera will replace Pogba
