Why Fellaini is better than Paul Pogba

This article is meant to be one of humour and satire and should be treated as such. The author does not intend any disrespect to either Marouane Fellaini or Paul Pogba.

Fellaini, for all the criticism that comes his way, has been playing top flight football for Everton, Manchester United and England over the last 8 years. Pogba, on the other hand, is undoubtedly a world class midfielder.

1) Fellaini is taller

Paul Pogba is no dwarf. He stands at an impressive 1.91 metres (6 feet 3 inches). This makes him a crucial component, both while attacking as well as defending set pieces.

However, Fellaini is even taller at 1.94 metres (6 feet 4 1/2 inches). In fact, the Belgian has made a career out of scoring headed goals for club and country.

In an impressive spell in the 2014-15 season, Fellaini ramped up headed goals against Tottenham and Manchester City. Also, who can forget his injury time goal against Club Brugge at Old Trafford, also in 2015-16.

So, while Pogba may be taller than the average guy, Fellaini certainly trumps him in this regard.
