Man Of The Match: Fantastic Fellaini

Marouane Fellaini was voted Manchester United's Man of the Match after his impressive two-goal display in Saturday's 4-0 victory over Crystal Palace at Old Trafford.

The midfielder was a clear winner in our poll on Twitter, obtaining 79 per cent of fans' votes to finish ahead of Marcus Rashford, who received 15 per cent, and Ashley Young (6 per cent).

The Belgian continued his impressive form by scoring a goal in each half to notch his first brace for United, adding to an early opener from Juan Mata, before a late finish from Romelu Lukaku secured a comfortable victory for the Reds.

Fellaini now has four goals already this season, more than his tally for last term and level with his total for the previous two campaigns, and had more touches (12) than any other United player in the game.

The 29-year-old has responded well to the responsibility of fulfilling Paul Pogba’s position while the Frenchman is out injured, linking with Nemanja Matic and using his physical presence to control the midfield.

Fellaini received widespread praise on social media, with Reds fan Liam Canning tweeting: "Shows great mental resilience from Fellaini to bounce back after being booed at Old Trafford. Good on him. Deserves his success."

The man himself told MUTV: "When I score, it’s always a bonus. It’s good for me and good for my confidence, but the most important thing is the win."

United boss Jose Mourinho also spoke about Fellaini after the game, saying: "He is a great player and character and we have a good relationship. A strong character who resists the difficulties here.

"He is a fighter. I am really pleased that I helped him reach this level and to change the perception that the fans have now. I am really happy for him."
