I normally don't like criticising our own players and try to look for the positives, but there aren't any. He's nothing more than a plan B target-man up top when we're struggling for a goal. As an actual footballer we badly need to replace him.

Disastrous, overpriced gift from Moyes.
 
It was a sitter but I'm amazed he still managed to be on the pitch by that point after 4 fouls in like the first 20 minutes.
 
Seriously, sell him. He's not good enough, caused their first goal and missed a chance I would score. feck off already.
 
Terrible player. Does very little that is positive. How he lasted 90 minutes is beyond me.
 
Supposed to be good in the air, yet he's abysmal at it. All he did with his head was to head it down for a Newcastle goal and miss a sitter of a header. The worst DM/#8 we have in our squad. Would rather play Pearson and we've sold him for 100k.
 
4 fouls in 23 minutes :D
Heads the ball down for their equalizer
Beaten in the air so often
Broke down two of our attacks
Dispossessed so many times
Underhit passes galore

He's like that kid in school, who you don't pick for your team because he's fecking awful
 
He has missed like six of these crucial sitters in the past months. He could have gotten us at least 5-8 points more.
 
Honestly, everyone is good in those situations. I know exactly what you mean though ;)

Aye, what I'm saying is that, essentially, he's only rated at all for his heading because of his size.
 
Hope he's booted out of football permanently. He's a huge discredit to the game. Ugly playing style and a circus freak
 
If you want to be fair to him today I would call it very much a mixed bag

I thought he was quite good at times very poor at others
 
He is unbelievably awful. Beggars belief how he still gets starts. Whatever Milan are offering, take it and sell him.
 
Which is incredibly stupid when you think about it. A player who is good in the air and tall is Andy Carroll.

He's probably improved a lot now, but I actually used to think Carroll had similar problems to Fellaini back in the day; better at getting his head to it due to his size than due to actual heading ability.
 
Seriously what LVG seeing him? He he just can't score, can't defend, what's the point of him in team?
He should never play for us.
 
He's absolutely woeful and needs to feck off out of the club. He's shit at all the things he's supposed to be good at and worse at the rest. I want him fired out of a cannon.

He has. I've seen much better use of his body to position himself before jumping for the ball. Fellaini lacks the positioning, the fighting spirit and the heading ability.
 
I think you have come to the wrong thread, my friend.

Funnily enough, I'll be honest and say that while I thought he was very poor, I probably feel like he did better than some others...his rating seems to be averaging at 3.2 at the moment and I've got him above that...even if not by a lot. But aye, despite the positives he occasionally offered, the negatives are often just too worrying and too costly for us.
 
Other than maybe Anderson.

Has to be the worst signing we've ever made. fecking dogshit player.

I beg to differ. Anderson played some good football in his time here, more times than Fellaini. He had more to his game than Fellaini would ever have
 
How he stayed on the pitch is beyond me. We will always struggle to hold onto the ball when he is centre mid. i can see uses for him further up the pitch but tonight he shouldn't have stayed on the pitch for the full 90
 
He is not good enough for us. I hope to see Pereira in that position and Schweinsteiger when he recovers.

Aye, Anderson's first season was good and he looked quite promising for a few years. Fellaini's been a bit of a shit signing, but I'd still say Bebe and Obertan probably rank as worse.
 
The missed sitter is only half the problem. When he was playing deeper in midfield he couldn't control the ball of win challenges. He's poor in every position.
