He isn't like for like. Nobody has said as such.

What??

We would be replacing Fellaini with McCarthy. Fairly agreed upon.

We are struggling for creativity and goals. So, let's sell a lad who gets us goals for a lad who gets virtually no goals and creates one chance every 94 minutes.

Hey, why bother? We've already got Leon Osman!
 
Your interpretation is very puzzling. The feller is in perpetual motion breaking up play and showing for the ball off team mates and giving it to others to get moves going. Maybe you're looking at the ref?

I wouldn't waste your breath mate

Replacing doesn't necessarily mean they will play the same role, you build your tactics around the team after all.
 
Compare them to Fellaini's - his like-for-like replacement.

Impossible because they played in two different positions as you well know

Is it not best to compare him to someone who plays the same role, Carrick is quite good isn't he?

hahahahaha.

Perpetual motion.

9m Barry Ferguson.
 
What would people say if McCarthy is brought in with Barry, and Osman is sold? Just hypothetically.

This is without any other outgoings.

Just because he is replacing him in the side, it doesn't mean it is like for like. The emphasis will shift and the style will change and be brought more in to line with Martinez's plans.
