Has the manager been asked about him lately? At least give the fans an explanation.
It's incredible how much stick Bruno gets when he's arguably are best and most consistent player. Yet people are so quick to defend a player who is yet to do, or show, anything at all.Yeah then you have no clues.
Yeah you should also wait before shitting on a player who has had no real opportunities to take a place in the starting XI.It's incredible how much stick Bruno gets when he's arguably are best and most consistent player.

Enjoy your Mount love in, I'll wait until he actually does something to deserve my attention.
I think the frustration with Mount is as much aimed at the club's awful recruitment as Mount personally. Some garbage line from the club that Arsenal and Liverpool could be interested (they weren't) and we manage to spend £60m on a player in his final year when Chelsea were desperate for cash. An absolute car crash, then you add in the fact that he was already suffering injuries and his one purple season for Chelsea was some time ago and it starts to look bad. Another lightweight system player who really doesn't seem to address any of the obvious gaps in the starting 11. maybe he will deliver but I think this will rival Antony as a terrible signing.Yeah you should also wait before shitting on a player who has had no real opportunities to take a place in the starting XI.

I totally agree that this transfer made no sense whatsoever, where we paid 60m for a player on his last year of contract.I think the frustration with Mount is as much aimed at the club's awful recruitment as Mount personally.

It seems like it's aimed primarily at ETH & co, on the entire premise of the transfer in the first place, and rightfully so.i can't wait for him to return and prove the doubters wrong, the stick he gets on here is crazy
You obviously know nothing about pegging.It seems like it's aimed primarily at ETH & co, on the entire premise of the transfer in the first place, and rightfully so.
When you've got a round hole to fill, you don't overspend on a square peg to do it.
That’s 60M of wasted resources for the season.I’m guessing we won’t see either actually play football until around March, most likely?Tweet

Who was written off before playing a full gameWill be like a new signing ...
was thinking about this yesterday? We paid 60mil for a player who was a free agent this summer. He has played what? 600minutes for us? 100k for per minute on him being of the pitchThat’s 60M of wasted resources for the season.

Anderson was a B d'Or contender by the time he came back from injury/boot campAye, usually players get rated higher when they're unavailable.
60 million quid for a player that we didn't need, don't have room for and will likely sell in a few years for next to nothing having had to cover his wages.i can't wait for him to return and prove the doubters wrong, the stick he gets on here is crazy
Been back in training since November …What's the latest on him?
Maybe, but unlike hojlund who had a clear position where even at the start of the season he was the best in the squad in, mount does not. And who is he going to replace regularly? I just don't see where he fits in at all.If people have learned anything from the Hojlund experience, it is that you need to be patent with new players. Some catch fire to start then fade to irrelevance (Di Maria...my god), but many take some time to get going. Mount is the type of player you need to give some serious slack to because his talent is unquestioned...so if hes just given time to get going he is going to be a stud for us IMHO.
ETH clearly sees him as being able to play with Bruno as we saw in preseason. That’s all we’ve really seen of him so I don’t think anyone can or should be making these sweeping statements about him being crap or a bad fit when he hasn’t even had a chance to settle into the team. He’s obviously a good player. I will admit I’m worrying about his ability to stay fit now though. I was hoping last season was a one off for him.Maybe, but unlike hojlund who had a clear position where even at the start of the season he was the best in the squad in, mount does not.

Especially since he's barely playedi can't wait for him to return and prove the doubters wrong, the stick he gets on here is crazy
I never said he was crap. I just don't see where he fits. Remember mainoo wasn't fit when he was.ETH clearly sees him as being able to play with Bruno as we saw in preseason.

I can't see that happening unfortunately. Mount is a decent player but he's natural as no 10. That's Bruno's territory. So unless Bruno (ie the captain) suddenly becomes shit then Mount will be a reserveWords will be eaten in a big feast in here. Just you wait .....
Agree. I don't think we'll see the best out of Mount unless he replaces Bruno for a long run of games. What will likely happen is that he'll play sometimes as an 8, sometimes a 10, and sometimes out wide, but I can't see him nailing down any of those spots.I can't see that happening unfortunately.

Most said it at the time too. And most expressed big concerns over his recent injury record. I hope there’s a fecking inquest into his and Antony’s and whomevers signings because it honestly at this stage feels like Murtough and co. were intentionally pissing money away, because the other option, that they thought they were making good signings, is arguably more crazy now£55m for someone who would have been available for free this summer. What an incredible waste of money!
He was actually off competing in a pie eating contest.Anderson was a B d'Or contender by the time he came back from injury/boot camp
Yeah, he's been amazing when he's played...i can't wait for him to return and prove the doubters wrong, the stick he gets on here is crazy
