      as a chelsea fan, its been great business and i wish him all the best; I do think he will get exposed at man u though sadly, that 5 in 33 is gonna come back to bite him

    4. MH on

      Talking about crosses its disgraceful how none of the wide players cross the ball.

      There was a time when the fullbacks were great crossers as well, now we have 80m+ players who are shy of crossing.

    5. YesTheMenace on

      Mount is going to bring out the full potential of Antony. People saying antony flopped are not familiar with his game. Because he plays isolated most of the time with only the LB as passing option he cant tap into his full potential. With mount there they can create triangles on the left flank. Which will elevate Antonys game

    6. Commentary Talk on

      Still think ManU are missing a marksman up front to focus on. Would say the same about Arsenal but the whole team from their signings feels more complete apart from that position at least with defender (Timber), midfield (Rice) and attacking midfield (Havertz) all signed.

    8. Morgan Kokoyo on

      Great analysis Dave now that Onana deal is almost done we need another midfielder in Amrabat( preferred Lavia/caicedo) but he'll do great. Also a striker.

    10. Mitch The Toilet Guy on

      I think he will improve the game his got passion his got skill and good passing this is something Man United were known for players with good passing he make good passes in games and i'm sure he even get some goals but i think his going to really help the attackers get into those good postions with those passes and lead to something good for them

    18. Daniel Hizkia on

      What Man United need after this are a pure target man striker and a solid backup center back. We could see Man United sometimes a little bit struggled without Martinez last season.

    19. Nathan Brown on

      The most important thing is he can provide quality in 4 different postions. I think he also brings a real chance to balance the right hand side with Dalot and Antony all hard working and attack minded

    23. Leif Arild on

      I'm a big fan of Mason Mount, and my expectations are high. And I'm sure he will deliver. He could be the signing of the season. 😎😎

    25. Gray100 on

      Very happy. We have a window or 2 left to improve the squad and then, maybe, we can hope to challenge in all competitions

    27. MARTIN STEPHEN on

      What is not mentioned is that tactics aside, Mount in the only player, apart from Casemiro, who has won a UCL title so he brings a winning mentality and UCL experience into that team as will Onana with his brilliant showing in the UCL Final.

    30. Shree Ram Sigdel on

      This is the best Transfer. Even if we look back to our last season, during the end of the season: Erikson leg was not up to the mark; kind of fading away; Now we need a decent ball playing Gk and a Striker (Better than WeGhost on finishing ). I want to see Japanese GK Suzuki (a ball playing GK has few problem with holding the ball but very cheap and just 20 years old ) Could be a great addition for the future;

    32. R P on

      Werent you the garbage geezer who said maguire should stay at united previous season only to get benched the whole season?

    33. Tim Gittins on

      He’s the De Jong alternative. He’ll be tasked with getting the ball through the lines as quickly as possible. I’d thought him more a 10 but Ten Hag has other ideas. We shall see if it works.

    34. Ben on

      Hmmm, Bruno was playing towards the right side last season even when he played in midfield Eriksen or Fred would be the player to the left and Mount whenever I have seen him has played to the left. Also no way Eriksen is still a no.10 he played most of last season in a double 6 or if in a 3 he was the one coming deeper while Bruno would be more attacking

    36. Bryn Gefferies on

      We don't want anymore Chelsea Rejects only Enzo Fernandez or Moisés Caicedo.

      If Frenkie DeJong doesn't want to come to our Club then bring the best Alternative & Preferred Choice Ryan Gravenberch & Nicola Barella would be excellent additions to our Club then we can seriously challenge for league & champions league Next season!

      De Ja Vu again – Buying Chelsea cast off shows desperation & lack of ambition, we're sure we can do better than this!
