If they had any sense they would, but apparently, I'm a hipster, scouser and know it all for saying Moyes and Fellaini are out of their depth.
It's just some casual entertainment for you. You'll find a new toy if United are not 'aesthetically pleasing' enough to you.
Dortmund are almost overdone now though. Maybe Barca coming back into fashion.
Was it charleysurf who called me a hipster in the summer for not wanting Moyes as our manager?
Does he know what a hipster is? It's a cut of jeans, right?

The poor fecker can do nothing right. He was very good tonight for the most part, nice bit of aggression, some decent passing, silly tackle for the red but definite progress. That's what we want, right? Progress? That he improves? That he shows willing?
Sure. If we actually signed a competent midfielder that would limit Fellaini's playing time (or preferably not signing him at all), fans would have been much more happy.
Saying that, he was decent tonight but everyone could have seen that the red card was almost inevitable. If you'll get booked in UCL, it is a bit risky continue making fouls. Knowing that he has made most fauls last season in EPL, I don't think that this will be his only red card.
I thought he was okay, but I simply cannot ignore that minute or two around 85th minute where he acted like a striker and stayed high up the pitch without making slightest effort to run back even though Sociedad won the ball and Giggs was alone in the midfield, it was really ridiculous. Van Persie actually showed more midfielder qualities there and started chasing back where Fellaini just stayed up front, not bothering too much.
I'm not sure "decent passing, bit of aggression" is quite cut out for this club, nor would I class it as very good. But it's old ground we'll be going over until he's gone.
He was one of few who managed to at least look average in an embarassingly dire game of football.
The state the Spanish league must be n for that lot to finish fourth. They looked like a pub side. A scared pub side.

It was his best match for us so far. He seemed to be using his body more (a bit too much I guess given the sending off) and isn't just standing there letting things happen around him. If he's going to look like that and play there then he needs to start letting opposition players know he's there and start shoving them around a bit and leaving a mark. So far he's been frustratingly timid but to give him his due he was trying to make a physical impact on the game.
You really are a dickhead. United fans are questionable fans if they don't rate Fellaini. United fans aren't real fans for wanting us to improve our midfield options further than just signing Fellaini. Only transfer muppets want United to have a better midfield than they do currently. And we're all hipster cnuts.
Listen to yourself, you bell end.
That's bollocks, Steven and disappointing from you. Wilfully obtuse. I mean it's a more competent performance than his previous outings and we can be positive about that. He's finding his way and as supporters of the football club we applaud this improvement and wish the big man well for his next game.
I wouldn't really describe his passing as decent. It's basically what people used to wrongly criticise Carrick for...he'll pick a safe sideways ball when a forward makes a good run into space ahead of him. I'm starting to find that side of his game very frustrating. It indicates he doesn't believe he's good enough to play the pass, which for a United midfielder isn't on.
What he was doing was at least playing at some kind of tempo and finding space when not in possession. Most of our team couldn't even bring themselves to do that. It was like watching some art piece where someone uses a football game to show depression in the form of visual interpretation. Or like watching Spurs.
If that was a 'good performance' tonight then that gives me further belief he's not fit for Manchester United. He won the ball four or five times, fouled ten or so times, and made a couple of dozen straightforward passes. I mean, that's just extremely average, which I fear he is.
Really couldn't understand the praise he was getting here at half time, that was strange. Thought he was better when Kagawa went central, as Fellaini always had an option in the pass... Then he got himself sent off, he's a clumsy dirty oaf.

He should have been sent off earlier. It's not something that we didn't expect tho. That was generally his game at Everton as well. Same manager, same player, same fouls and stupidity. Can't see that improving to be honest.
Some laughable reactions in this thread alright. He did well today. Sure the oposition wasn't tough, and sure he still made mistakes. However he performed better than in previous games and there are signs of his form improving. I actually think it was his best performance for United so far and to come here and read some of the reactions to his performance it's truly incredible what one reads here.
Yes, it certainly is, as it was to the likes of Busby as well, which is why we sing about "football taught by Matt Busby", do you think that's referring to a team being 'aesthetically pleasing'? I do, I think that's an important part of creating an entertaining team personally, if all your interested in is having players who're effective and will win, then maybe United aren't the team for you.
Look at these quotes, who the feck is he trying to impress?
Bet he sounds like a right hipster cnut to you.
For what should he be sent off?
For 5 soft fouls ? Or what ? Smalling with his rash sliding tackle was closer to being sent off.
I think it's fair to say that those of you praising his performance have a very low standard in which you rate him on.
Astonishing that people view a sending off, persistent fouling, poorly hit passes, and an overall lack of quality on and off the ball as a good performance. Quite frightening.
He's so out of his depth at this club. What a phenomenal error in judgment by Moyes to bring him in, and for such a ridiculous fee. Pure desperation.
Ha ha, I've seen your posts. I really do not think Matt Busby would be a Moyes Out! loon like you. So stop comparing yourself.
People are going over the top. It was a 6/10 performance. Nothing special, nothing too terrible.
I doubt he will be afforded the same sort of space in most PL matches that Sociedad gave him today. Today really tells us nothing about Fellaini's progress at United other than he needs to learn how to foul less.

Just read through more of this thread. You're all (most of you) spastics. He should never have been sent off and was actually disciplined after his very soft first booking. Terrible refereeing, good game by Fellaini. When even the constantly miserable and pathetic Noodlepot doesn't scapegoat him, you know he wasn't that bad.
True, this team we've played twice now would at the very least have struggled to stay up in the PL.
I've never seen a performance split opinion more in my life. How some of you can say he had a good game baffles me, and I'm sure you'll feel likewise to my opinion he was utter wank for all but ten minutes.
You're normally a rock of sense, Kid. I'm disappointed with you.
You're fecking disappointed with everyone tonight!
We see what we want to see. You could get very philosophical on this subject.
It's all been very disappointing, lem8sh.
Alas it has.
Basically because it was a 6/10 performance and nothing spectacular. Such a performance usually makes people see what they want to see.
Admittedly, I don't like Fellaini and I didn't want him here. I have it in for him, so I will scrutinise his performances a lot harder than most.
By the standards he's set so far he was decent tonight. And that says it all really.
At least you're honest. Not to worry, you've plenty of company in here.
A hipster, scouser and now a loon, I'm also comparing myself to Busby, although I've never done that, and you can see all my posts that were posted on a public forum
Not the sharpest knife in the fecking drawer are you.First time in the CL. Sold their best midfielder in the summer. Half their defense was missing for the first two games of the season because of injuries. Only got the two transfers this season, the 21 year old Swiss forward that came on as a sub and Granero on loan who's now out for 6 months. Knocked out Lyon in the qualification round.
The team that finished 9 points behind them in the league last season reached the quarter finals of the CL. In their 25 man squad they've got 13 players that are home grown.
You're being a tad harsh.
Usually when you make 3 soft fouls in CL you get booked. When you have yellow in the first 30 mins you better not go to a foul spree whatever the foul is soft or rash...
Hey, I'm glad you're letting it all out here! I wouldn't wish you on any other clubs forum. I'm too fecking nice me.A hipster, scouser and now a loon, I'm also comparing myself to Busby, although I've never done that, and you can see all my posts that were posted on a public forum
For what it's worth he had more touches tonight than anyone bar Evra and gave the ball away less than anyone bar Jones (who wasn't much involved at all, for obvious reasons).
He had some fine involvements and interceptions, I thought. Nothing spectacular but he did his job. Careless to put in that tackle when he had already been booked, obviously. Then again his so-called constant fouling is much exaggerated. The first booking was a bit harsh. And he was guilty of five fouls in total - not dozens, as you'd think reading some of the comments here.

Bottled it? Are you off yer head? Do you even know what that phrase means?
Yeah, van Persie, who's scored hundreds of goals in his career, just couldn't handle the pressure of scoring from a tight angle against the European powerhouses that are Real Sociedad. And Hernandez, again, we'll ignore the bobble and assume he just couldn't handle the pressure of scoring on such a massive occasion.
