HATCHET MAN: Time for dangerous Fellaini to change his approach before Everton really are sorry
Everton apologists have come up with a range of excuses for the conduct of Marouane Fellaini this season but time has to be called on the way he tries to win headers.
For all that his Marge Simpson hair may draw the attention of referees, he still seems to be getting away with a dangerously aggressive approach.
Against Aston Villa on Sunday Fellaini's elbow connected with Curtis Davies and Zat Knight without proper punishment.
There were similar incidents against Hull and Middlesbrough and 11 bookings
since moving to the Premier League last summer tell their own story.
The midfielder may be clumsy rather than malicious but when he tries to win headers he throws out his elbow dangerously and it has to stop before somebody is badly hurt.
Fellaini could legitimately claim he is using his arm to help him jump for
headers, to give him more height, but he needs to learn another way.
Everton team-mate Tim Cahill, a much smaller player, has one of the best springs in the League and doesn't seem to put defenders at risk in the process.
He should show Fellaini how it is done.
