With the bursting of the Jinyuan bubble, there are not many foreign aids that can be called a superstar in the Super League this season. Fellaini is one of them. Six months ago, he successfully renewed his contract with the Taishan team with a four-year contract. The last days of his career are left to China. However, Fellaini, who has a long contract in hand, does not intend to enjoy the life of “retreating to the second line” in advance. At every moment of crisis, the tall orange figure in the penalty area is a beacon to victory.
In the battle with Hebei, Fellaini came forward again to help the team open the door to victory and become the primary contributor to the final victory.
This is the third season that Fellaini has joined the team. The “late” Chinese Super League trophy is the best compliment to him.
What is the reason for Hao Wei and his coaching staff to leave the opportunity for reinforcement of foreign aid to the midfield after Pellet and Geddes left? The answer is naturally Fellaini. The Belgian tower’s Chinese Super League years since the beginning of 2019 has not only added to his life a destined and memorable Chinese Super League years, but also achieved another “transformation” in his career.
In the past, during nearly 10 years of his Premier League career, Fellaini has been fixed at the position of the back midfielder. He only entered the opponent’s penalty area for the final fight after set-pieces or the final moments of the game. After joining the Tarzan team, his position gradually Has changed.
Fellaini’s change has experienced struggles. In the early game on behalf of the Taishan team, Fellaini scored in his first appearance, but the team’s performance did not improve rapidly due to his arrival. The first 5 games only achieved a record of 2 wins and 3 losses. The defensive end was even better. It exposes obvious problems. At that time, the Taishan team’s foreign aid combination was quite “luxury.” Pellet and Geddes had their own characteristics in the front line, and Jill in the defense line was the most successful foreign aid guard in team history. In this context, Fellaini hesitated in the choice of offense and defense, and because he had just joined the team, the coaching staff did not find an ideal way to use him.

The value of the star will eventually be reflected. In the 2019 season, Fellaini will hand over a report card of 8 goals and 3 assists. With strong support from the striker, he played the important task of scoring at a “fixed time” just like the previous time in England, and completed his work efficiently.
Before the start of the 2020 season, Fellaini was attacked by the new crown virus, but this eventually became his foreshadowing of his “Nirvana”. Due to the late arrival of other foreign aids, Fellaini’s position gradually moved forward. In the first match of the league against Dalian, he completed a hat-trick in 7 minutes and helped the Taishan team get a good start. Fellaini played 18 games in the first Chinese Super League to be conducted in a tournament system and contributed 5 goals. It was his steady performance that allowed the Taishan team to survive the dilemma of irregularities in the opening stage. Although the Taishan team ultimately missed the championship group, no one has ever questioned the value of Fellaini.
Based on the full understanding of Fellaini in the past, Hao Wei has given him a broader space to play this season.
On April 27, at Guangzhou Huadu Stadium, Fellaini beat Zhang Linpeng and Jiang Guangtai at the last moments of stoppage time and pushed the ball into the Guangzhou team’s gate. With this goal, Taishan team defeated Guangzhou 1-0. The team has rewrote the embarrassing record of unbeaten opponents in the “Cantonese War” for 10 years. This risk-related savior has become his basic operation. So far this season, Fellaini has contributed 9 goals, although it has not been affected by injuries. Scored goals in the second stage of the league, but his pivotal role is still the foundation of the Taishan team’s tactical system.
The change in the team lineup is the basis for Fellaini’s more calm performance.

After Xu Xin and Sun Zhunhao arrived, the Taishan team’s midfield control ability was significantly enhanced, and Fellaini therefore had more room to move forward. In addition, after the termination of the contract with Geddes and the rent of Leonardo, the Taishan team continued to insist on the tactics of holding high and playing high. Although the tactical system has not changed, but Liu Binbin, Wu Xinghan, Jin Jingdao, Ji Xiang and other domestic first-class players Existence allows the two side lanes to provide more adequate ammunition support. Guo Tianyu’s rapid growth also shared the pressure of Fellaini in the penalty area.
With ample space, Fellaini’s activities are more flexible, and he has therefore become a “free man” for the team. However, compared with the traditional “freeman”, Fellaini, who has a simple style of play, does not occupy too much possession of the ball. When Sun Zhunhao sorted out the midfield attack, he used a short pass to find a teammate on the side, and then he Straight into the opponent’s hinterland and wait for the opponent’s cross, this kind of offensive routine has become the Taishan team’s time-tested killing stunt this season.

The superstar sticks to it
Defend the Super Brand
This summer, Fellaini renewed his contract with the Tarzan team for four years. When the big-name foreign players fled, he chose to continue to enjoy his journey in the Super League. In fact, Fellaini has never lacked “seekers”. Ever since joining the Super League, European teams have continuously issued invitations to him. In 2019, his name appeared on Tottenham’s signings list. Since then, many teams from Belgium and Turkey have spread “scandals” with him. In the national team, even though Fellaini announced his withdrawal early to make room for young people, the voice that allowed him to return has never stopped.
As a veteran, Fellaini has his own plan. In order to help the Taishan team win the championship, he refused the temptation to return to Europe. Here, he has a very happy life. Between training sessions, Fellaini will drink tea with his young teammates, and three or five people will enjoy the magical “Oriental leaves” around a table. This is the best way to relieve boredom in a boring closed life. Dai Lin often shared life details on live broadcasts. When the camera was aimed at Fellaini, he did not have the slightest pretensions and greeted netizens enthusiastically.
In the three seasons of the Taishan team, Fellaini has integrated into the team and the city of Jinan. He often patronizes a mall on Jingshi Road, where many fans have obtained valuable opportunities for group photos.

Fellaini’s role in the Tarzan team is not only on the court, but also off the court. His professionalism also benefits young people a lot. On the afternoon of August 1, the Taishan team had their last practice before the Guangzhou team. As the training was about to end, there was a sudden heavy rain in Guangzhou, and many players who had completed training returned to the locker room. At this time, in the heavy rain, an orange figure is still insisting, he is Fellaini. As the core strength training has not been completed, Fellaini did not terminate the training due to changes in the weather. He did not end the training until he completed the last action according to his requirements. This vivid case made the young players of the Tarzan team deeply aware of the reasons why Fellaini became a top star.
Under the “Four Caps” policy of the Super League, Fellaini’s contract amount has been adjusted to a certain extent compared to before, but due to the good atmosphere of the club, he is still willing to stick to it here. To a certain extent, this persistence has also brought inspiration to the Super League to enhance its brand value. As long as the league has a good momentum and the team can let the players find a sense of belonging, even if the overall investment level decreases, some people are still willing to struggle and fight again.
Also in the second half of this year, Fellaini began to grow his hair. A closed life has many inconveniences. Looking at his “swollen” hairstyle day by day, perhaps, that “fluffy head” will reappear in the future, and that will also be a further sign of the Taishan team.Return to Sohu to see more
