I know I keep bashing him but watching Fellaini try to dribble is painful. He's not a United player.
 
Just like we didn't during the corner ? :rolleyes:

This fecking Fellaini shittalk all the time, annoying. Got his assist, what more do you want from #10 ? We'd be wanking if Kagawa or Mata got an assist. Meanwhile, Kagawa in CM can't pass properly most of the time. Does this skill go away when moved out of the position ?
Yeah because if he wasn't #10 he wouldn't have got that assist from that set price. You should be a journalist for The Star.
 
What do set pieces have to do with anything when talking about Fellaini's position?

So many times he's been in the box and we haven't put the ball in. I may not like it but if we are going to use him as a number 10 then launch balls at him. If we are trying to play it on the floor then it would make sense to have a number 10 more suited to doing that playing there.

Fair enough, you're right. This season is upside down though, when he wasn't there, we were endlessly crossing, now it's the other way around. feck knows why.

Yeah because if he wasn't #10 he wouldn't have got that assist from that set price. You should be a journalist for The Star.

It doesn't change shit, he's playing #10, he's got an assist, deal with it.
 
This coverage is beyond ridiculous. They return from seven or eight minutes of adverts for literally one sentence before cutting back to adverts.
 
He's playing as the deepest lying midfielder. Harsh to judge him on that.

Need to have some consistency on here... If Felliani can be judged for playing in a number 10 role then Kagawa can be judged when playing deeper.
 
I've always liked him. Been on loan twice this season. First at Carlisle where he scored a couple of spectacular goals, one after a mazy Giggs-esque run cutting in off the left, and then Yeovil in the second half of the season. He's full of promise. Good turn of pace and clever with his one touch play around the box. He might be more of a central player but I think he'll get most of his minutes for us on the left.

You mean he's a new Scholes?

Fellaini played that role at Everton in his last season there.
 
Christ, all this 'back challenging for the title next season' stuff looks well wide of the mark. On this display hanging on to 7th is the challenge.

Insane tactics. But hey, lets have a go at Fellaini instead, much easier to do.
 
The number of times I've seen everyone just lined up standing in the box this season has been incredible. Where if the f**king movement?!?!
We've turned into a very reactive and ponderous team. Often someone will play a neat pass in between the lines to someone further forward but rather than that's utilising that space the player will again slow things down and again the opposition will have reorganised. Quick link up showing a genuine understanding between the players simply isn't there. It's all very obvious play, which requires no invention and no one to interact quickly with one another.
 
I hope Hull are better than this vs Arsenal in the cup final!

With no worries for either team, waqs hoping we'd see some attacking football but they're content with putting 10 behind the ball and seeing it out.

Kagawa has been absolute dog shit though.

Two of their best players in Livermore and Huddlestone are on the bench. They don't give a feck about this game, I think they just don't want anyone injured.
 
Fellaini played that role at Everton in his last season there.

So by that logic we shouldn't have judged Felliani all season because he has played deeper for us than he did at Everton...
 
Lawrence begins the second half like he started the first.
 
Lawrence was looking for that.

I think Adnan will take this.

And most of these adverts are absolutely dire. I mean most ads are shit but these are something else

Except Fellaini said that the deeper position is his favourite role. Everyone knows Kagawa isn't a central midfielder.
 
Fellaini played that role at Everton in his last season there.

In an entirely different role to what he's asked to tonight. Its mental to have a go at either of Kagawa or Fellaini today. Baffling how Giggs has set the middle 3 up.
 
Need to have some consistency on here... If Felliani can be judged for playing in a number 10 role then Kagawa can be judged when playing deeper.
Incorrect. Fellaini is used to both positions and is comfortable at either. Kagawa is a number 10 or wide attacker
 
I'm struggling to remember a more boring half than the one we've just witnessed.

Agreed. It doesn't seem the players give a crap either. They talk about giving something for the fans to shout about and yet they play like shit.
