But after a difficult start to the campaign, the starting XI against Valencia ahead of the Group H tie decided on the public display of harmony.

Fellaini was asked after the 0-0 draw against the Spaniards why United had decided to act and go into a huddle seconds before the start of the match.

“Everyone is going in the same direction, to try to improve and to do better, “ he said. ” I think we wanted to show that we are together. “

The Belgian, who performed in midfield, also revealed it was a group decision when asked who had come up with the suggestion.
