The Belgian’s arrival made matters worse for the visitors

The Belgian was brought on in the final few moments to steady the ship and see out the game which could have seen United acquire all three points. Instead, a lazy challenge on Gueye inside the 18-yard box gifted Everton a penalty in the last few minutes of the game. Fellaini had not done anything worth mentioning in the game until then as the former Everton midfielder proved to be the villain for his current team.

His footballing abilities are always questioned with the towering midfielder offering few attributes on the pitch. With his latest mistake which could have a major impact on United's campaign, Fellaini and his agent should start looking for new pastures as United are planning a major exodus in the coming transfer window and the Belgian will be on top of that list.
