It’s not exactly a perfect match when you consider the standard of midfielders that United fans have seen at Old Trafford down the years, and now, as we try to find our way out of mediocrity, Fellaini is regarded a scapegoat.
Fellaini’s had his moments – both good and bad – but he’s not the worst player to play for United. Not by some stretch.

Fellaini is out of contract at the end of the season so unless Jose Mourinho gets his way, the Belgium international may well be off.
