Has it been mentioned yet ? Will he keep 25 now that Nick Powell has gone out in loan ?

I think he'll get the number 9

Unless he knows he's going to be very special for us and will demonstrate it from the start, he might be better off with another number. He's going to be a lightning rod for discontent and impatience as it is.

I seriously doubt that. Just because half the morons on ja606 seem intent on dismissing him before he's kicked a ball doesn't mean that 99% of Old Trafford won't be fully supportive of him.

Given his height, he'd do a decent job as an actual lightning rod.

Serbian, good point.
Conor, I agree that OT is far more loyal that 606. However, everyone is a bit worried at the back of their minds about life after Fergie. A lot of people will be raising eyebrows that Moyes has exclusively brought in people from Everton (Varela excepted). Everyone was unimpressed by the transfer window. A few unimpressive performances + Fellaini with the iconic 7 on his back not immediately tearing up trees doesn't sound like a good recipe to me.

I see what you're saying but I just doubt that - other than a few morons - people are stupid enough to turn on Fellaini. I reckon he'll be a good addition for us anyway and that a lot of posters on ja606 will be pleasantly surprised.

@ManUtd: We can confirm new signing Marouane Fellaini - @fellainiM - will wear the no.31 shirt for #mufc. #WelcomeFellaini http://t.co/DwuK3PVRKv

I think the majority of match going fans will be fine. He won't hear the discontent of an internet keyboard warrior sat in a pokey bedsit above a cornershop in downtown Mumbai.
