he has his uses. and we've had worse players tbf. schneiderlin and cleverly, for example.

will always have a soft spot for him after how he terrorised city in van gaal's first season.

just don't start him in any game, please.

My desire to see him suffer a career ending injury has now been commuted to merely wanting to see him sold to a team we have zero chance of playing so I never have to see him at OT again.

That's as lenient as I can be.

Works as a squad player, Mou seems to be aware of his limitations and gets him to play within them, supposed to be the perfect pro in terms of training and following tactical orders. Moyes and LVG expected too much him but just because he plays for Manchester United doesn't make him a Manchester United player. Would rather be didn't play for us tbh but ah well, I'm not gonna wish death or injury on the fella. Only kidding, hope he dies of snapped Achilles' tendons.

He receive so much stick (some of it justified) that most players would've taken the easy route out and packed it in. His attitude is first class and he does a job when called upon. Grown to like him a lot and delighted for him tbh.

However I do agree to the extent that you can't see past a series of false dawns with this lumbering oaf.
He will always be a *limited* player - ALWAYS.

But even though it hurts to admit it, he has now shown fairly conclusively he can be useful in certain situations. Quite possibly we missed him against Stoke tbh.

Man of the match last night, effective this season

I've reassessed my opinion of him from pure hatred to willing acceptance

Wanted him to play instead of Pogba against stoke. Stupid not to really.

When I say wanted him to play. I wanted Carrick instead of Pgba and 'him' to come on later if needed

Fellaini will always be shit by the standards we want, but he's benefitting from being in a better, more confident team with a manager who knows how to handle players. Under those circumstances he can be useful against poor opposition or in certain games a a sub.

The comments from mourinho the other day show he doesn't intend to be using him that much but wanted to make him feel valued. Fellaini on the pitch also shows the manager knows how to use him when he does. As such, it's bearable for now.

Limited but effective, which in my eyes is better than talented and ineffective. He was always going to be tainted by the fiasco/desperation of his transfer, but he has shown a degree of professionalism that has made me warm towards him.

Agreed - would rather see Fellaini warming up than di Maria

The cheeky @#%&!.

Abhorrent footballer.

If Lingard is getting £100,000 per week, Fellaini should be getting £150,000.


At least Fellaini contributes, Lingard is shite and does £#%&! all except score the odd screamer at Wembley.
