He wasn't anything special. Not even overly good really. But still better than most.
 
Everyone has been shite, so take these comments within that context, but he's the only one getting involved physically like this is the derby it is. I want to see more players putting a foot in like him and going head to head with Lucas. Poor on the ball as usual, but at least he's putting his foot in.
 
He's actually been not too bad. Still looks like a bit of a bombscare, but he's generally not fecked anything up for us and has made the odd okay pass.

Yeah, it's United Liverpool and people are complaining about a bit of physicality and passion. Remembering the old RVN vs Arsenal saga and similar, we lack any sort of steel or bite in the team other than Fellaini. I can just imagine if he wasn't playing and our guys were getting bullied by the likes of Lucas and Henderson... It would be embarrassing to a watch.

Aggression doesn't have to mean committing senseless fouls in the name of passion. Iniesta shows more passion than any of our players but by using a brain

Agreed. He hasn't really shown passion as such. He just shoved over an opposition player with whom he had a scrap.

He did feck all wrong in that silly Lucas episode.
 
What I don't get is that he's being used for his height and physicality, yet he never wins the important aerial challenges. He's not doing the main thing he's on the pitch for, so what's the point?
 
Another poor performance but same goes for rest of team no need to single him out.

When opponents really compete with him in the air he really struggles for someone of his size.
 
DDG is man of the match and by a mile

Agreed, but Fellaini did offer much more than the rest of our midfield and attack today I think. He made a fair old defensive contribution and gets up and down the pitch very well (yet folk still claim that he is lazy). About average going forward, but heavily involved in the goal.
Was perhaps the only player willing to stand up to the Liverpool bully-boys Henderson and Lucas too.

I think it was a poor game and we deserved to lose. Fellaini was dog shit but so was half of the squad
 
His header against the bar for Rooney's goal is reminiscent of Vidic. Four defenders on him and rattle the bar with it.
 
Effective, but hideous to watch.

He's the personification of the Results vs Entertainment debate.
 
MOTM today, much better than last time

Like few others getting slightly carried away there, de gea man of match by a country mile. Did well for the goal but at the end of the day it was a header off target that fell kindly and that doesn't make up for another poor performance. Lots of players were poor today though so int that context he did ok.
