Awful player. Even in his preferred position he offers virtually nothing. His 'assist' really should've been given as a foul.
 
They should put the ball in more, he would of scored many times. Stop talking about his transfer, it is done and gone.

He has done in bringing down balls for the front 3 to play.
 
Who's idea is it to play him as an AM in a setup that's designed around short passing? :lol: Atleast Moyes only did it when we were chasing games and lumping balls forward.

I dont even blame him, he's being asked to do something he clearly isnt meant for. Its like playing Kagawa as the deepest CM and then blaming him when he doesnt perform. Oh Wait. :wenger:
 
We can only hope he has a cracking WC and any team wants to buy him. Seriously but nobody will want to pay his 120k wages. Worst transfer I can remember
 
Playing him further up the pitch then Kagawa is actually a crime against football. I have no idea what Giggs is thinking.
 
Ah now, he hasn't been unusually awful today or anything, has he? Pretty much what we should expect from a limited player in a team that doesn't suit him.

It's really too late in the season to get worked up about this guy, I'm sure Van Gaal will deal with him in one way or the other over the summer.

This.
 
This thread is weird. Why are you lot blaming Fellaini? Has he shown anything ever in his career to suggest he should be the man behind the striker in a system that looks to want quick short passing in and around the box? We arent even pumping balls forward ffs. The hate for his guy and the love for Giggsy is blinding you lot from directing the anger in the right direction.

Would you all criticize and have a go at RVP if Giggsy plays as the CM vs Southampton?
 
Set up our goal. Obviously he's not going to look good when we're playing tippy tappy football. Or at most other times.
 
He doesn't do himself any favours doesn't he with that languid and casual style of play? At least with Berbatov, you knew that he was class. Someone like Van Persie is more talented than Fellaini is but doesn't treat running like it's an insult to his talents.
 
I said he was a Conference standard player ages ago. I've seen nothing to change that view. I saw Gateshead v Grimsby the other day and saw more talented midfielders on show there.
 
Stealing a living at Man Utd.
 
Absolute dog shit of a player. Can't wait to see the back of him. I just can't see what Van Gaal will do with him.
 
He should never play as AM for Manchester United.

Play him as a pure defensive mid or sell him.
 
I've just gotten in, has he been that bad? :lol:

I've only seen him completely not spot RVP in acres of space

But he can't play. Anywhere. Just release him on a f*cking free if we can't sell him.

He's been asked to play a role he's totally ill suited to. Ditto with Kagawa. Doesnt mask the fact that he's really not United starting 11 standard but the its unfair the stick he's getting.

From what I gather he's playing behind the striker, like he did for Everton last season?
 
It's like watching a competition winner out of the crowd getting a go in United's first team.

Yes, but unlike Everton, we have shown no interest to use his height or strength. We're playing it short and along the floor, replying on quick passing and movement around the box. Its like asking Kagawa to play as the holding mid just because he can play in midfield. We've done that too this game :wenger:
 
We seem to have shunted RVP out onto the wing to accommodate Fellaini as the furthest player forward in a central role.

Like absolutely everything that's involved Marrouane Fellaini this season, I can't even begin to grasp what's going on. It's stunningly ridiculous.
 
Too think what Van Gaal might have turned Herrera and/or McCarthy into had Moyes/Woodward done the right thing. Instead, he's left with this waste of a footballer and glaring problems in midfield.
