If you were Maurouane Fellaini, would you sign a new contract at Everton?

[jimbo2011]

It's a genuine question that needs a genuine, head over heart answer.

Because if any of the BK apologists answer 'no' to this question, then they also need to accept that the club is on a very steep downward spiral.

I would like to think he would sign a new contract, if hes gonna move, I would hope he would want us to get money for him, unless something drastic happens soon, im fairly sure this is the last Season we see Fellaini wearing blue.

As I say, if he goes and we get cash money I wouldnt blame the lad at all, but I really want him to stay.

I think it'd be a harder decision than you're making out. He's got to consider the fact that anywhere else he goes, he won't be the superstar that he is here. Having just seen Pienaar go to spurs and end up as a bench boy may put him off leaving a bit, Pienaar was just as key as he is and spurs aren't much better than us really. I think that may act as a sort of "are you sure this is a good idea" factor for him.
That said he might just think "Sod it I'm better than peanut and most managers aren't as odd as 'arry."

Not a chance, he owes us no more than he owed Liege, hes a champions league player, thats were he should be.

Im fairly sure Pienaar is quite happy sitting on the bench counting his money.

Love when the fans lose the contact with reality.

I reckon he really wants to win things with Everton. But before he signs he wants some evidence that the club's moving forward and is capable of delivering success. So unless something big and exciting happens in the next 12 months, I can't see him signing a new contract. Which would be a ****ing tragedy.

2 years ago I would have laughed at you, but in that time we have stood still while Spurs have spent cash, so, sadly it appears as tho they have overtaken us, nevermind, im sure it wont be long untill Wigan do.

2 places mate, it's not really that much at all.

Quite possible, I suppose it comes down to whether or not he cares about getting a game. I'd like to think he does, he seems like he wants to prove himself as something special, though Pienaar also seemed that way to be fair.

Im fairly sure he doesnt give a flying fck about Everton.

Some players come in and you can tell they have pride playing for the shirt, for the Club, but I reckon Fellaini recalls all the abuse he used to get from the fans, so thinks FU.

Just my view anyway.

You never know he might like the city and feel settled.

In terms of ambition, he should go.

Pienaar isnt stupid, he knows what he was getting into, he knew that Spurs have a massive squad and also have Gareth Bale who plays LW and Modric as Playmaker, so its not as if he thought he would first choice.

Yeah, cos Liverpool is a proper nice City lad.

Honest.

I think Fellaini is a more sort after player than Pienaar. There aren't many big men that have the aerobic capacity and footballing attributes that Fellaini has. In addition, he has age on his side so if his next move doesn't work out i'm sure there will be a plethora of clubs willing to acquire his services.

Would I sign a new contract if I was him....under the current regime? probably not.

I know, I'm not disputing that, I mean I may be illusioned thinking Fellaini cares about getting games because Pienaar came across the same way but obviously didn't.
