Marouane Fellaini

[HairSprayGooners]

Again, Mertesacker was tall, did he put himself about?

Fellaini is just a beam which players kick the ball to in the hopes that he'll somehow manage to force the ball forward.

Again, I actually said not talking about height ffs

@BobP
I feel your opinion on him is slightly misguided and based on absolutely no factual evidence at all. Is Matic also a beampole?

I can't actually remember anything he did very wrong, he's such a sturdy player in midfield.

Not sure why you're comparing two players who perform completely different roles within the same team.

Furthermore, I'm not exactly sure how that screenshot disproves my view that Fellaini is a beam pole. I mean you've included two different categories relating to aerial duels. Of course he's going to trump Matic, it's the only thing he's good for. It's not like Mourinho sits Matic behind Lukaku so that the team can ping balls at them.

Baldi here to save the day - cheers !

OMG no.
I've changed my mind, Arteta in please.

Faith in Mislintat and Gazidis restored :bounce:

 

[Big Poppa]

Most ridiculous thing I've ever read.

1. Fellaini isn't a leader.

2. He isn't physical. He's a literal lamp post.

What are you talking about? He is probably the most physical player in the premier league. I can't think of anyone who is more effective at using their body to shield the ball by muscling opponents off it.

It's the fact that this kind of thing is all he's known for that has people concerned.

What a ****ing dirty bastard of a player

Jesus christ. I knew he was dirty but come on, how has he not gotten a million red cards? Imagine Xhaka or Suarez throwing elbows like that every game... the queen herself would step in and take action.

We havent had a cünt like that in our team for years, surely would change our "boys not men" image. The question is, do we really want those kinds of players at Arsenal? Hardly the Arsenal way.

On the other hand, would be handy as hell in the dirty battles against Mourinho and the Stokes of this world

No, you said he wasn't physical? Literally just proved that not only does he get stuck into tackles but he wins a lot of them. More than Matic, but your claim was that Fellaini isn't physical. I was just showing you that he's a very physical player, he doesn't just stand there.

What have we become? Last World Cup we were watching Alexis score against Brazil in the knock-out rounds and being one of the stars of the tournament. This year we are arguing if Fellaini is being signed as a starting player or just a squaddie

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

This still a top rumor in transfer thread? Two days in a row?

Sad.

 

[Toby]

Knew this was media BS all along. Fellaini will join his fellow belgian China journey man Witsel to grab some nice bucks.

 

[Lidl_Reed]

He has strong elbows game, after that there is nothing left.

I'd rather have 3 Elneny's in midfield than one Fellaini.

Imagine his accidental elbows coupled with our defending on set pieces

"Late game, a minute to go, and Fellaini has elbowed him, Arsenal lead 2-1. AND IT'S IN WHAT A HOWLER BY MUSTAFI ON THE FREE KICK

 

[Lidl_Reed]

Sorry, watch from 1:09.

When you do God's work like that, you can't get red cards.

 

[SingmeasongSong]

Ffs, cannot bear this - kill this thread, burn it to the ground :confused:

 

[Kingslayer]

Forza Milan!

 

[Judasviking]

I would rather bring Håvard Nordtveit back than Fellaini, thats for sure.

All this talk of 'beam poles' is making me chuckle.
