Fellaini

One plays the position he desires, the other is asked to play left midfield.
-----------------------
I am pretty sure Kagawa has played more games in his favoured position, at UTD, than Fellaini has.

So you believe there was a time Fellaini!!!!! was one of the best cm in the league? This league that we call the premier league!!!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm inclined to believe a highly paid manager who saw him every week might know him better than you.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Like O'neill and Ashley Young, right?

Well, as he plays very well in Europe and poorly in England it's quite likely he's not adapted to the very different style of the PL.
-----------------------------------------
He didnt do all that well in europe as well. He was generally poor. If you watch dortmund matches, he rarely kept the ball for more than two seconds. Its two touches and a pass almost all the time.

Here at united, once he takes a touch there is noone around to pass to. so he had to keep hold of the ball which is not an effective part of his game. Again its the style,

I will bet 100, If kagawa sign for Everton, Swansea etc he would be far more effective

Didn't want Fellaini to begin with, still don't and I very much doubt he will prove me wrong though.

When he did , he played well. When Fellaini played in DM, his self professed best position, our opponents played well

MuDD still has faith in Anderson so he picks his battles.

On OP

I think we should try playing Fellaini as no10, especially when we play against stronger teams like City, Everton, Newcastle etc. Nothing else worked against them so far so why not?

Also we as fans are not stupid, Neville mentioned this earlier regarding his punditry. Just because a manager sees a player everyday does not mean we do know whether they're class or not. Fellaini was never in the top 3 cm of the prem. Never!

Moving the goal posts my friend

Ando needs to be sold or contract terminated, sharpish

posted on 3/1/14

Robb, MuDD has said many times recently that Anderson should e sold.
The point you're making is pretty stupid. You're dismissing Martin O'Neils point because it doesn't suit your argument yet telling MuDD that you should listen to (pretty much) the exact same opinion of Moyes.

Scholay, i've never seen anyone work SO damn hard to look at the negative sides of everything.

If I didn't know better i'd think you were our old friend Nohlman.

He was not even among the top 3 cms at Everton

Not in the slightest mate.

Saying a guy was the best DM in the league over the short period he played there is a helluva lot more believable that a manager saying that Ashley Young is as good as Messi.

We've gotten to the point now where someone can't repeat a compliment about a player without someone bringing up another managers stupid comment to try to shoot it down.

What next? We look at a player from Portugal but we have people saying 'Don't buy him, remember Bebe?'.

Not the same Robb. Moyes rating Fellaini as one of the best midfielders in the prem is almost as idiotic as saying Ashley Young is as good as Messi and co

It's not just Moyes who was impressed...

If anyone says Fellaini is the best DM in PL at anytime ever, he is deluded or just lying. He was poor at CM/DM at Everton. ask any Everton fan, They'll tell the exact same thing

In that very same article it's says N'zogbia should play for England.

==============================
Undoubtedly one of the biggest flop signings we have ever made, but at £27mil it's likely we will be stuck with him for at least a couple of seasons.
==============================

A bit too soon to arrive at that conclusion, but you could be right. If you are, I'm sure that Moyes will step forward and blame the game officials.

Anyone could play for England. Besides, he used to be quite good.

But the difference is that N'Zogbia served me a Burger King the other day and Fellaini is actually playing in DM for United.
