Stats 7,142 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Was excellent tonight in the CM role against Arsenal tonight. Dominated the game and made his fair share of interceptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Someone needs to remind him that he's playing the British, not American, type of football! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only place to be 11,313 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 84% pass completion, 4 interceptions and a team high 7 tackles for the people who care about stats.Looked like he gave a shit about his club, his teammates and the supporters for 90 minutes for the people who care about such things.

He played well in the DM role yes, but his best performances this season and last season have come when he's been deployed forward. One game won't change my opinion about him.

One game won't change my opinion about him.So you've only seen him play one game in the DM position? That's interesting.Oh, and it was a fairly obvious dig at Mikel.

My opinion is based on the fact that I've seen him play there more than a couple of times. What I'm saying is that one good game at DM wont change my opinion about him playing as a DM for us.

The thing is from my perspective this was another good game at DM and a performance that showed heart and passion. Obviously I don't have a chart or stat for heart and passion so it's not really important to some fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styles 9,790 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Fellaini is a good player...for Everton. Our midfield needs to get a lot better and I don't see how buying him does that. People complain about Mikel's lack of mobility but Fellaini has the same issue. He is definitely NOT the passing playmaker that we all want either so what is the point? We can do a lot better than Fellaini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouNameIt 1,511 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Oh, I don't dislike him. In fact I think he is cracking as a physical attacking midfielder. But there isn't that much room for another attacking mid at Chelsea. What I believe is that he is an average defensive midfielder and does not fit Chelsea's needs at the moment.Still think he is an average passer, I was being hyperbolic in my original post.I don't care if you don't reply. But saying that I'd appreciate it if you never ever fucking assume what I don't and do know. If there is one thing that pisses me off is when people assume things about me, whether it be personal or otherwise.Fellaini would fit in perfect with Mikel in the double pivot.

Where's Oscar?Fellaini is a decent player but he's not needed here. We need true a playmaker in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
