Rumoured Marouane Fellaini

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Yes! Pumped for this. He will be a very good signing and will add much needed power and strength to our side. Our team is improving so much in such a short time. This window is shaping up to be a good one

---Fellaini----Ramires---

---Moses--Mata---Hazard

-------------Ba--------------

Awesome.

For 27 million euros i say that it's quite a good deal. It doesn't matter if some people believe he is better as an attacking midfielder than a defensive one, the fact is that we don't have a midfielder with his qualities and i think that he will complement our creative but weak style of play. He is also at the perfect age and he won't need time to adapt, just like Ba so i say bring him in.

P.S. They clearly made a mistake about his wages, maybe they wanted to say five million each year which is like 100,000 per month

I hope this is true. Beyond his technical skills and his strength, I love the fact that he's not one to shy away. He can impose himself on games whereas someone like Mikel needs people around him to play well rather than driving the play on himself. He needs to learn a bit of self-control but I like a bit of nastiness in that position.

Plus he's a goal threat from midfield. We all laugh about Mikel's 200-something games without a goal and it's really not one of the main things he's asked to do, but with all the tools at his disposal (his height in particular) you'd expect the occasional one.

I'd be happy enough with him coming in. Good solid player. Still not sure how true it all is tho

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Him and Ramires will just run down opposing teams. Just imagine it. Plus, we've got goals all over the park now.

Sorry i may have to, if you're wrong (which is most likely) you will forever be known as a fake ITK, never to be trusted again.. can you live with that?

Yes I can but unfortunately I'm not an ITK

[Thomas Williams 166]

(not sure if mentioned before) but imagine him and Luiz in the pivot, no team could handle that combination of hair.

[MADEZ 9]

when are able to sign him will play a specific position or will moving around the pitch like he does in everton?that won't be possible

[Spike 12,049]

Are you going to be one of those people who moans that we should buy Benat (AKA Flavour of the Month) instead?

[mybodyisready 155]

L'Equipe got the Hazard story spot on so I hope this one is real as well.

Fellaini is the flavour of the month for me. I can't comment on Beñat vey much because the La Liga coverage in Australia is shit. All I know about him is that he is good with a FK and has great long passing skills.

I've never rated Fellaini. He is a damn terrible passer of the ball.

We've been scouting Fellaini for over 3 years now. He's proven himself in this league. I also think his passing skills are tremendously overrated. But having looked at the statistics I do see your point.

Fellaini the terrible passer has a completion rate of 78.1%

Benat (with the 'great long passing skills') has a completion rate of 79.3%.

But to his credit that extra 1.2% of passes that actually reach their target have created an extra 2 assists.

Plus Fellaini's oft-criticised aggression is a black mark against his name.....except Benat does seem to have DOUBLE the yellow cards against his name (10).

Now I'm the first to point to the flaws in statistics, but come on.
