I have said it before, I liked Mase's attitude for us, I liked his motor. He has a technically sound strike. You can however look at his games with both Chelsea and Derby, he has no positional awareness or discipline. Lampard and Tuchel let him roam and he had the wheels to get back on defense. Unless you let him roam, he is not going to give you much.

Yes he's a league 1 standard player, I get that a lot of this forum don't rate him but this is actual bollocks
I'd say he's a fringe CL level player. He's good enough for a top 4 competitor for sure. He suits a lot of modern clubs. He just doesn't make sense to us because we don't need cover for Bruno ever as he's always fit and that's the only role that Mount suits.
It's funny that we brought in cover for Bruno, a guy who is never injured, in the form of Mount who so far has been injured nearly the entire time.
What a quirky ironic little happenstance

We didn't get him as a cover for Bruno. he was brought in to partner casimero in midfield. Terrible decision of course as he is not a CM!
imaging a cover for 70 million. I’m already upset we signed him to play him out of position, imagine we’d signed him as a cover!
bad transfer nonetheless
What is his injury at the moment?
Actual non-update. I feel like someone inside the club genuinely thought people have forgotten about him being here and needed a reminder. And they were right. He is subbing for Van de Beek nicely. It doesn't even allude to when he might be back, which seems a way off.
I never thought Sanchez would be replaced as the worst transfer in our history, but then Sancho, Antony, and Mount happened in quick succession. What makes this one particularly bad is everyone and their mother saw it coming from a mile away and were scratching their heads. Everyone, except the circus staff.

I hope he’s back soon. I still think he will come good.
You haven’t a clue .
he alive?
Is he something tangible or an idea? Does he only exist when you think about him?
He still dresses like Spider-Man and jumps around his mansion yes. He doesn’t play football any more though
Been out for 67 days now with a calf injury apparently. Coming up on 10 weeks…calf injuries are usually 6-8 weeks max. Definitely have the feeling there’s more to this than we’re hearing.
It is very odd because on the 27th december he posted a photo of him doing ball work with a caption saying can't wait to be back and then four days ago he's back in the gym with the caption one step closer. Closer to what? Is he nearly there because a month ago he was doing ball work or has he relapsed and he is now multiple steps away from playing football again?
I genuinely forget he exists until I see this thread bumped.

WTF is this “calf injury”? Unless it was actually an Achilles rip he should have been back by now.
So happy that money is such a non-issue for us that we can spend millions on replacing Phil Jones' spot in the treatment room.
i mean i dont think he is implying some illuminati level conspiracy theory, just that this supposed calf injury isnt a simple matter. At this point it is getting a bit ridiculous with how long he has been out, with no end in sight of actual coming back.Just no.
Not everything has a hidden meaning for fecks sake
He must have fecked something again when he came back to training too early after boxing day.
You do start to wonder whether or not the fact that the head of rehab and physio leaving, as well as a couple of others, isn't somehow connected to what feels like poor performance in recent years with regards to recurrence of injuries and length of time players seem to stay injured. The review being lead by the new Head of Sports Gary O'Driscoll is possibly identifying these issues and Mount could well be the latest (and hopefully last) example of that.
I don't believe he exists. You'll have to prove it to me.
We signed bigfoot.

mason "peace out loc"
Mason Mount after signing that blockbuster contract and playing three games
Calf Injury - From 24 November to February (likely date)
Hamstring Injury - From 24 August until 26 September
Hip injury - From 25 April until 01 June
Knock injury - From 08 April until 12 April
Unknown - From 03 March until 31 March
Knock injury - From 05 January until 08 January
Basically he was available for a bit in October.
So a less talented Paul Pogba then.
Nobody knew this was coming, everybody expected huge success.
”Sources say Ten Hag's decision to offer the number to Mount sent a strong signal of how much United valued the England international and earmarked the pivotal role he is set to have in the team.”
No it was illuminati I meant. They harvest calf muscles from underwhelming premier league midfielders. What do you think happened to Jeff Hendrick?
Yeah, probably our worst number 7 of the recent lot at this point. Pointless signing.
There’s definitely something else going on behind the scenes. He’s been on the grass since the start of January and no word since. A picture of him on an exercise bike…
The thing is, Mount's injury is not the most mysterious one at Utd, it's Malacia, which has been much longer and more ridiculous!
He injury record last season was poor as well. He missed 13 games in total and from the beginning of March he only played another 43 minutes of football that season. The last time he scored a goal was in December 2022 and since then he has only managed to rack up one assist. Definitely feels like we have signed a duffer here.
Not really? We know what happened with Malacia — he suffered a setback to his knee injury and had to undergo a second surgery. What's mysterious about that?
He's certainly not going to be rushed in his recovery now (after having 2 knee surgeries in the space of few months).
I agree. This cannot be just a calf injury and there was no word of a setback either. There must be something else more serious.
I was being hyperbolic so don't pay too much attention to that but iirc Malacia's injury wasn't as widely reported at first or had much specifics until recently. I think we now know he was playing on painkillers last season but during the summer and at the start of the season where he had been missing for 4-5 months, it was just known that he was injured and nothing else. The fact that he's had a setback suggests it must have been fairly serious in the first place so to hear very minimal was a bit strange especially with his long lay off.
It's even hard to rate him as he's played so little
Regardless of your thoughts on him (I do not rate his time at Chelsea and would have preferred we did not sign him) you would have to say that he could hardly have been more unlucky with the start to his United career. A couple underwhelming performances (To be totally fair to him the entire team looked underwhelming) mixed in between long term injury layoffs to the point where a lot of people forget he is even here. That is some really bad luck.
We basically replaced VdB who never plays and we bought for 40M, with Mount who we got for 60M. Its absolutely criminal incompetence.
