Yeah that’s it Lucky. He’s one of those, a bit like Jordan Henderson, IMO where top managers seem to rate him but he often divides opinion amongst the fans. Clearly, Arteta, Klopp and Ten Hag all wanting him means there’s a top player there. Very early days anyway. I won’t be judging us just yet.

Sean, the way utd played today, mount and Bruno both played almost as double 10s behind rashford with garnacho and Anthony providing width.
His best position for chelsea was also one of a pair of 10s behind a striker but at Chelsea the width was provided by wing backs.
I think where he was played today suits him better than any other position but the system overall did not work for the players altogether. Mount just had a bad game too.

As I’ve said before, I think Mount tends to be one of those players who follows the managers instructions to a ‘t’ and stays tactically disciplined and we know how managers obviously love those players. But as a player to help really turn a game? I’m not sure.

I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen a home game where it was one-sided with the chances coming from the Away team deemed as one of the more weaker ones in the league yet, United with little chances of their own finish with a win.
If that was City, they would have annihilated them.

Ed, hearing you linked with Pavard. That’s a good shout mate he could help your midfield in this type of system as inverted full back but could also play outside right of the base of 3 when you are in possession too.

No early game with Liverpool to get your season going this season Ed 😁

Yeah I’m not convinced by Pavard Lucky. We’ve been burnt by buying Bayern’s castoffs previously in Hargreaves and Schweinsteiger.
Mikus, that’s it 😄. Going to Spurs at the weekend is not an ideal match to get back on track.

I think while it’s not mounts best position, given what utd currently have, mount should play as left mid in 4231 shape out of possession as he is very willing to defend all day long in wide area’s and presses really well.
Bissaka, varane, martinez,Shaw
*******Casemiro, erikson
Anthony,*****Bruno,*****mount
************rashfordThen when utd switch to possession mount moves in to a 10 and Shaw is allowed to be high and wide with erikson helping casemiro control midfield from deep;

Eriksen won’t be starting many games Lucky. He showed last season that his legs have gone and won’t be playing 90mins regularly. Certainly not alongside Casemiro in the middle where we need more energy. I think he’ll come in for Bruno when Bruno needs a rest. Would not surprise me to see some variation of what you suggest but with a different midfielder alongside Case. Amrabat possibly? Although, Mount won’t go on the left I don’t think simply because Rashford is at his best there. Rashford can’t play as the 9, hence the need for Hojlund.

Yeah Ed,I take your point on eriksen I was looking purely at the players available today and thinking in terms of just today’s game. He obviously can’t be the main man now you are right.

Yeah Tonali looks quality. Newcastle are going to be a real threat to the teams chasing top 4 this season.

Ed, do you think the midfield 3 of Bruno, mount and casemiro is ten haags plan this season? If there is another midfielder coming in it wouldn’t surprise me to see Mount move left.

Good character with Tonali too, he broke his heart being forced out of AC Milan but look at the desire he is showing already for Newcastle. If you could bottle that and sell it would be worth millions!

I think so Lucky. I think the plan was that Mount would basically replace Eriksen next to Case but push up as an extra 10 depending on opposition and flow of the game. Ten Hag has experimented a lot last season with this 3-1-6 which he used at times at Ajax which would see Mount as one of the 6 attacking players. We played with quite a few different formations last season. Mount’s versatility (as well as his energy) is a big part of the reason he wanted him I suppose.

Yeah Ed, Mounts position will change over time don’t worry. He will move to left midfield before long, then he will be left on the bench, then he will be left back in the changing room 😂

It’s illegal to give an away team a penalty at old Trafford, only the home team has that honor. 🤣
