Manchester United’s manager, Louis Van
Gaal has revealed that he is willing to change Maroune Fellaini’s
position to fit in with his teams need.
Van Gaal revealed this while speaking at yesterday’s press conference ahead of today’s return fixture against Club Brugge in the European Champions league qualifications.
Van Gaal’s team defeated the Belgian side 3-1 at the first tie in Old
Trafford last week and now aim to secure qualification to the group
stage of the Champions league.
Van Gaal faces a striking problem as Rooney is yet to find his feet and score this season, and loosing out on the hunt of Pedro to Chelsea FC.
He now is contemplating playing Fellaini as a striker, a position Fellaini is not known for.
Van Gaal said: “He can play as a no.6 or no.8 but this year he’ll be more a no.9 or no.10 as we have players in the other positions.”
The Belgian midfielder is said to relinquish the opportunity to prove that he deserves a place in the squad.
A delighted Fellaini said: “For me, it’s not important where I play – the most important thing is to win.”
Fellaini had scored lots of goals playing at the 8 position for David Moyes in Everton, his lethal headers is one of the reason Man Utd dished out £27.5 million for the Afro haired Belgian.
