Manchester United – Marouane Fellaini Isn’t the Problem
The problems Manchester United are facing early this season aren’t because of Marouane Fellaini, although he is a symptom for some of them.

Manchester United – Marouane Fellaini Partially Succeeds in New Role
Considering the rain of criticism falling down on David Moyes, an away draw in the Champions League inside a very tough stadium is nothing to be ashamed about, as Robin van Persie felt quite alone without Wayne Rooney by his side, while Marouane Fellaini might have been the most important player on the pitch in his advanced role, which is also keeping Shinji Kagawa out of the lineup.

Manchester United – Robin van Persie Can’t Save David Moyes
Championships aren’t won this early in the season, but there’s nothing about Manchester United under David Moyes that radiates anything remotely close to a title, as the over reliance on Robin van Persie continues to be demonstrated with every time he doesn’t start a match or isn’t completely fit to give his best.

David Moyes is Making a Mess of His Manchester United Beginning
Everyone expected Manchester United to be having some difficulties under the new regime with David Moyes at the helm.

Even without Robin van Persie, Manchester United shouldn’t look this bad. However, when the manager is David Moyes, it wasn’t surprising to see a man-for-man switch by putting Danny Welbeck, who is anything but a goalscorer, instead of the team’s best player.

Manchester United – Robin Van Persie & Wayne Rooney Good Enough for Minor Ambitions
Even if Manchester United see themselves as one of the biggest and strongest clubs in Europe, relying on the ability of Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney to link up and perform magic together simply isn’t enough, as the hopes of winning the Champions League might be shattered sooner than they hoped for once again.

Manchester United – Robin van Persie & Wayne Rooney Shouldn’t Need Refereeing Favors
There was never any doubt Manchester United would leave Old Trafford as the winners of the early kick-off match, but with talents like Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney on the team, it’s a shame that a referee was the one mostly remembered from the match, giving the home team a huge, unjustified boost once again.

Manchester United – Marouane Fellaini Is About Value, not Price
It’s quite clear Manchester United overpaid for Marouane Fellaini, but it doesn’t mean that he isn’t a good signing that will prove to be crucial to their success this season.

Manchester United – The Players They Failed to Sign
Even though Manchester United did eventually make that central midfielder signing they planned to make, it seemed like they overpaid for Marouane Fellaini, while the transfer window will be mostly remembered for the players they couldn’t get their hands on: Leighton Baines, Cesc Fabregas, Luka Modric, Thiago Alcantara, Ander Herrera, Fabio Coentrao and even Sami Khedira.
