Fellaini

[schoolboy errors]

Which is? If you say CM, thats where he played yesterday and how much time and space did WBA have thru the middle?

A hell of a lot less than when he came off.

I don't deny he was below par yesterday but how many games has he played in CM? Don't like making excuses for the lad but he was also clearly being affected by his injury, his mobility was a lot better before he picked that up.

What the hell has happened to Big Mo?

Why isn't he performing?

He lost the ball a total of 6 times in 10 minuets against W.B.A

Back injury.

They're bad news - I had an issue a while back and can tell you that they'll screw up your mobility, balance and consequently your confidence to be able to do the things you'd normally not have any issues with...

And I'm talking about picking up shopping, tieing laces and walking up stairs - never mind trying to play Premiership level football.

Horrible pain that cuts through your whole body - when you move your legs, hips, bend over etc etc...

He'll be fine, but should be rested for at least the Blackburn game.

I just dont think he can play CM. He would work fine in a team if he was given a free role, but we cant really afford that luxury. He looked better in a more advanced postion, thats because he didnt have to track back and he could do what he wanted, hes excellent at that.

Hes also excellent at keeping the ball, i mean yesterday he was a bit wayward with his passing, but normally he hardly loses the ball. Clearly we have yet to see the best of him, but i just think hes the right player for a CM place, he lacks any sort of defensive qualitys, normally his offensive qualitys are quite good.

I suppose we should judge him when hes settled, next season will be make or break for him tho.

Fractured rib might have something to do with it

 

[Goat]

He should be resting, thats for sure, fair play to the lad for playing thru the pain, but he sadly looks awful at the moment. I guess a crack in your back and a rib injury kinda ****s you up. I wouldnt get out of bed, nevermind play football.

 

[toffeestillidie]

step on a crack and you break fellaini's back, come clean who's done it?

 

[TyphooToffee]

What player performs his best with a cracked rib eh?

 

[Goat]

THIS IS SPARTA!!!!!

The only reason he has had the MoM things so many times is because he scored the winner. He isnt anything special, He has singlehandedly ruined the Premier Leagues chances of getting the Fair Play award.

City can cheer all they want but theres no dignity in getting europa football because you've been extra nice.
I could care if they scrapped that idea as it should affect everton at all, especially this season where we should get europa football if utd win today.

I think my mind is not playing tricks on me when I say that I think I read some comments on Fellaini stating that he was ace and he was a lot worthier than Moutinho.

Now I see some of those people saying he is utter crap?!?!?

FFS...

He's just a kid, learning his trade. I would never have paid all of that amount for him, but we did pay it, so we better stick by him and help the kid to improve. He's only too young and came from a crappy league.

We have to give him time because he shouldn't even have been thrown right away into the first team, the way Moyes did. Now some of you guys say he's playing with a back injury (many players have quit the game on problems like this)...

Holy ****e...

Make up your minds, fellows.

 

[Goat]

I guess we are just undecided on him really.

 

[HalewoodBlue_ver.2.0]

He is injured and playing through the pain barrier. Bound to affect his performances

 

[NeoNaoNeo]

I think it's easy to deduce why people have been wishy washy on him, because it's his first season and he started well. In the same way that Jo started well, but now we're seeing what he's really like.

A few good headed goals seem to have masked a very limited player, who seems atm out of his depth. You can blame that on his injury if you want but I saw him run plenty of times the other day, his concentration and his ability were what seemed to be lacking.

I don't like the idea that a dissenting opinion = kneejerk, but that's my view anyway. Call it what you will.
