Manchester United's new midfielder, Marouane Fellaini, was believed he would be able to carry out duties as a defensive midfielder like Roy Keane.

Once recruited from Everton with price of £ 27.5 million before the summer transfer window closing yesterday, Fellaini finally joined the Red Devils squad, after returning from duty to defend the Belgian national team.

During this time, 25-year-old player was known as a versatile performer in many positions. When I was playing for the Toffees under the direction of David Moyes, Fellaini often plays many roles in the midfield.

But at the beginning of his move to Old Trafford, he said he wanted to play in his favorite position, ie, as a defensive midfielder. Apparently he wanted to repeat the success Keane, who is considered as one of United's best defensive midfielder.

"Roy Keane is an aggressive player who can always win the struggle for the ball. Maybe I could do the same with the good. I could win the ball, I can throw the ball and play clean," said Fellaini about his ability.
