Everton skipper Neville: We've let down Fellaini

Everton skipper Phil Neville says Marouane Fellaini has been let down by his teammates this season.

"Marouane has scored two goals in his last three games and he also did well at Arsenal," Neville told evertonfc.com. "Really, we have let him down since he came here.

"The circumstances of him arriving here were unfortunate, in that he joined a team that was struggling and people automatically looked at him to start winning games for us single-handedly because of the record fee.

"You've got to remember, though, that he is only a baby. He's a 20-year-old lad, who is one of the youngest in our team and he's had a lot to deal with. But you can see that he is going to be a top player for us and we've got to help him all that we can."
