Well, if you've been watching 50 years you must know it all
If you think Fellaini is rubbish, you haven't watched that much top flight football.

Do give over with the Fellaini love in. He's a good player, but ready to fill Essien's boots? Unless he suddenly gains stupendous speed, athleticism and versatility, he'll never be able to fill his boots. Essien struggled this season, but I personally believe Guus will have him right back to the level he was at, where he was probably the most dynamic midfielder in Europe.
Now, before the toffees say drivel like "you've never seen him live", I have, twice, and I can appreciate his ability and the advancements in his game, but he'll never be an elite-level midfielder, which some seem to think he already is. He's a good player, but seems to lack that 'something' in most areas of his game to make him truly top drawer.
Good to see you've ended his career before it's really taken off. Fellaini is class, he can play at the highest level and he wouldn't be out of his depth but seen as you've seen him play twice you must know all there is to know about him
of course he still needs to improve his game, every player does but right now Essien is 28, I think, in the next 5 years I do think we could be talking about Fellaini in the same way as Essien or Viera. I know he needs to show his ability in a better midfield or in a higher level but, not just because he plays for Everton, he is a class player.
