McCarthy and Barry more effective in our new style, thought that before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Not many go from Everton and do better. Rooney being one of the only ones of the last decade or so. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weebittight Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I think Felli may struggle to get a regular gig at United. Kagawa did more last night in one game than Felli has done for them since he arrived - and personally I don't think we have missed him. Cheers for the money Dave.

Hafnia Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Kagawa is my type of player, clever, quick feet, quick brain - a proper footballer... moyes maybe doesn't see him as physical enough for the prem... a bit like cazorla, silva, ozil....

Cornish Steve Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Swap him for Baines then That's exactly what I suggested in another thread - but the idea didn't seem to go down well. The comment was that we don't need him on our team given the players we already have, but I think he'd be an excellent fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avinalaff Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Not many go from Everton and do better. Rooney being one of the only ones of the last decade or so. Rooney isn't the best example Ten, as he hadn't really started his career before moving. He might have gone on to better things had he stayed, who knows.

Lowensda Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I agree, so it just shows how small that list is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 In terms of "improvement in individual perfromance" Rooney hasn't for me developed in the way I thought he would, he is a fantastic player - but he always was going to be. I actually had him on the same projection as Messi and Ronaldo at one stage, he has been left behind. As a "team" player he is great, as an individual that star quality just never continued. We seen more of his Evertonesque "Roy of the Rovers" stuff in the early united days - the outrageous volleys, chips etc seem to have flittered away into a more "STRUCTURED" style of play. Maybe better for the analysts and statisticians but we want to see the stuff that he did in the playground... The one thing I will say is last night he gave a glimpse of that, not quite as exposive as he was - and yes he needs to lose fat and get lifting weights, but he still has that menace, want to see more of it.

Romey 1878 Posted July 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Being linked with a move to Napoli on either a permanent or loan deal. I hope it's the former and we have a sell on clause in there so we can rob another club of some money! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant1979 Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Wonder how much of a hit they're prepared to take on him? Bet they accept just over half what they paid. £14m up to £18m maximum, somewhere in that range. Just a total guess of course, I could be way off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Scored the winner for United tonight. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28762812 Can't help still having a soft spot for him, hope he gets back to his best (which is really top level) wherever he plays next season.

To join the premier league champions and play in the champions league, cant begrudge him that though you could begrudge the massive pay rise out of jealousy Its not as if he talked bad about the fans or club when he left, he even saved us 4m by handing in his transfer request. http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/426695/Cut-rate-Fellaini-forfeits-4m-in-United-move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if Van Gaal played him properly he would have a similar role as to what Yaya Toure has an City. (Not saying he is as good as Toure because he quite clearly isn't). Yet he could be that type of influential player for United. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't dribble the ball , his passing is woeful and he's got no touch. Gives away countless silly fouls as well. I was glad when we sold him especially at that price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Have to agree on Fellaini, limited footballer. Was a nuisance for other sides, that's about it though. His actual technical ability (apart from chest control) was shockingly bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blueboy122 Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 He certainly hasn't got the speed and engine of Toure that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His actual technical ability (apart from chest control) was shockingly bad. TBH I couldn't believe our luck when he went. I don't think he was ever a good player consistently.....just flashes really. Moyes brought him to Goodison and took him to Utd for more than he paid for him originally! Great business for us and an insight into Moyes' short-sightedness and fixation complex.....can't change....no plan B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
