ToxtethBlue
Player Valuation: £50m
I think Fellini is our boy here mate i really do, hes not the player he is going to be yet but the sign praticularly against Newcastle were good and at 20 now hel go far. His use of space and showing for the ball was significantly better and hes a big lump of a nuisence, what i liked that when he was on the ball he found his man very well simply. Thats the name of the game, i think he has more in his licker as he showed some cutting balls and vision in the derby but think Moyes told him to keep it simpe for the Newcastle game. He needs more coaching and adjustment and some work on his overall fittness but for Raw potential i think we have a good one here.
Im a confirmed Manny fan, but not all misty eyed he could do something that would infureate you or make ridiculous attemps to pass, that said quality wins you games. The balance isnt right. But Fellini for me is an excellent addition for the future i rate him highly on the raw talent and potential hes developed, ok its not wholly visable but if your into spotting potential its there in abundance. Roy Keane became a legend playing exactly the same way as Fellini does, now im not saying that hes of the standard Keane was in his pomp but i followed Keanes progress since he was 17 and there ability and potential are about level when Keane was 20 as Fellini's is now, i know alot will say that Fellini isnt a DM midfileder but neither was Keane when you study his game he just understood the game so well and set the of tone of Utds game and kept them ticking he was more box to box as i beleive Fellini will be for us.
Ha ha like i say a DM before Manny!
Fernandes for me is alot more talented. If they are competing for the creative/attacking midfield role which is the case Fernandes wins everytime. He's just more natural and alot better at that role.
I like Fellaini but he isn't anything special, he doesn't have anything that makes you stand on your feet and admire. He'll be a good player but I have no doubts the likes of Fernandes, Moutinho, Huddlestone etc would've been better options.
I've done nothing but stick up for Fellaini and praise him, Fernandes is better though. No question about it.
