I posted it wasn’t injury related. Seeing as there is no other source saying it’s not injury related I think I’m better off saying nothing . Is that ok with you?
“He is “
No it’s not okay really. Either be prepared to discuss something or keep it to yourself. It’s not overly difficult.

Still a moron for making malicious rumours. My bad if my spelling failed me, my primary language is Norwegian and NOK.
You make more sense than them anyway so don’t worry about it.

What ever happened to this guy? Is he still on the team?

I seem to remember that we signed him for a ridiculous fee and he played like 2 or 3 games and was never seen again.

I don’t think he was even starting even when he was fit, was he? I think Ten Hag just doesn’t fancy him.

We have effectively invested £130m or so in him, including his wages. We could really do with him playing some matches and being a game-changer at some point!

Season not going well, big money signing that people have been waiting for awhile. Not all of the clubs signings have got the ground running recently.

If he comes out and puts a couple nothing performances out there in losses, how quickly do the fans turn on him?

But I didn’t make a malicious rumour. I said it wasn’t injury related. In what language is that malicious ?

Strange that no one knows what’s going on with this guy.
Our main signing. Our #7. Nobody even knows when he’s going to back, what’s wrong with him or where he even is.

All very strange.

I'm really looking forward to his return to full fitness.
Based on what exactly?

He has looked completely anonymous in pretty much every minute of football her has played for us so far.

And was struggling to get in an unperforming chelsea team when fit last season.

Other than blind faith, what else is there to be optimistic about regarding his return?

I think the best thing for Mount at this point is for a new manager to come in and give him a proper run in the side in a role where he can play to his strengths as I cant see how he can really perform well under Erik's crap tactics.

The fact he hasn't been fully fit for us for any period since he arrived. The fact he is a proven capable performer when fully fit as a footballer

And was struggling to get in an unperforming chelsea team when fit last season....
Mitigating circumstances. Chelsea were a mess as a team , he had ceased being a priority due to his contract situation and he also had some injury issues that hurt his form.

That's for you to find out for yourself when he returns.

Feet up at home.
Indeed. I'm not even hid biggest fan yet I have observed many in here are way quick to act like at full fitness he is a rubbish player. They have straight up forgotten how capable he is.
I agree. Some Chelsea fans were practically distraught he was leaving. He's a very good player and needs more time to get over his niggles and settle in.

Agreed. I'm yet to come across a Chelsea fan pleased that they lost him let alone to us. People also underestimate how severely injury can affect a player settling in.

Loving the optimism. And would be very happy to be proved wrong.

But if he ever ends up being a nailed on starter in a performing, consistently top 4, trophy contending united side, I’ll eat my hat.

Give this boy a chance - hasn’t been fit and in a struggling team.

Not sure how ETH is going to play him but he was the managers choice so we need to give him a chance.

Too many have written him off already.

Where exactly do you think we are going to play him when he’s fit? Will we go back to the two 10s experiment?

If there’s one thing we’ve learnt with EtH is that’s not necessarily a good thing.

Mount can play as an 8 comfortably. I fully expect him to long term take over Eriksen's deeper role, whilst having the engine, defensive dilligence and tactical acumen to execute it better. Thanks to injury since he arrived he has never got a chance to in settle and make it work. I have almost not doubt with a fit and in form Mount, a 4-1-4- 1 works because he has the tactical understanding, engine and defensive diligence to fall back in time to support the line pivot, alongside one of our fullbacks inverted.

We need to cut our losses and sell him to a midtable club. Moyes will save us hopefully.
Mount has played 626 minutes in a United shirt. So basically 7 games and you would cut your losses and sell him?

After 7 games!!!

Dele Alli was a capable youngster, too.

Fact of the matter is, over the course of the past 18 months for club and country, he's been utter dog shit. And it hasn't improved since signing for us. To make it even worse, we are trying to retrain him into a position he isn't familiar with. Shite in his favoured position, so we can only imagine how a new position is going to turn out.

Nah. I am quite sure Mount will do well. Really needs to sort out this injury and he will come good. As other posters have mentioned, he was a good player at Chelsea. I don't think we got this one wrong.

I'm with you 100%

His value is only going to decrease here. Get him out whilst we can still get some money back.
