As a Chelsea fan, I'm absolutely gutted. He does so much behind the scenes that you only really see when you watch him regularly. United have basically got Ji-sung Park 2.0 on their hands.

One thing I noticed last season was that Martinez's ability to break a press with a vertical pass into midfield was excellent but often the receiving midfielders weren't comfortable taking the ball on the half turn and progressing to the final third. A lot of our attacks either broke down or slowed down at this point and we ended up going long to the wingers to cut out this step. Now that we've got a solid ball playing defender, we desperatly need a midfielder with the ability to receive the ball in space on the half turn and progress it to the likes of Rashford and Antony quickly. It looks like Mount fits this role perfectly, while having the ability to chip in with goals and assists. He will also bring down the age of our midfield.

If Ten Hag wants him, we just gotta trust Ten Hag. He has earned it.

Finally some really decent football content and analysis. So much of it on KZfaq is click bait and crap. More of this please.

If we get him. This is the video that got me excited.

Finally someone has explained this signing properly, I would also add United has plenty of midfielders that like to naturally play in the left channel and not much in the right channel. Mason Mount has played there a lot for Chelsea and would bring a nice balance to United’s midfield. I’m really excited about this signing, hopefully we can now sell both Fred and Dean which will allow us to spend on more positions.

Didn’t want Mount at first but he’s growing on me ngl

Brilliant video. This is what quality football content should look like.

Always been a Mason Mount fan ever since Lampard introduced him to the scene 3 years ago. I’d watch Chelsea games to see him play , he is a risingballer, he has got that grit . So happy we signed him . Now we need new Owners , Oshimen & Onana . HolaManU !!

I’m so glad that someone has made this video, this is what I’ve been saying about Mount for ages. Ten Hag tried this formation a few times with Fred playing this role, and our best performances of the season were those games. The problem is, Fred isn’t quite good enough on the ball to start there all season. Mount is the only quality player who can play this role perfectly. This also suits Donny VDB perfectly. He’s very good at everything mentioned in this video, and I honestly hope that ETH gives him one last chance. He’s been very poor as a lone CAM and I really dislike him in that role, however, when he’s played deeper next to Casemiro, he’s really shown how good he is on the ball, and at receiving the ball in tight spaces, making lots of intelligent passes to keep possession. I know the fan base is tired of him, but I really hope that ETH gives him one more chance. VDB and Fred as backups to Mount could even mean that we don’t need to sign the likes of Rabiot, as long as at least one of the two can find some form. I also think Sancho would be incredible in this role, weirdly. Great at intense pressing, picks up intelligent positions, his best attribute is his link up play and short, progressive passes. With his lack of aggression and somehow the inability to take a man on, I think a deeper role would suit him really well. I’m excited to see this in action, I really think this could transform us in a way that not many people are expecting.

You killed it 💥🤙... I think he is so underrated... as a united fan ,i became a mason mouth fan after watching that champions league final. What a player. Big big loss for chelsea and a gigantic addition for united

I have to say I'm one of the Dads (and a Utd fan) who's always watched England and wondered how he gets a game, so found this really interesting....here's hoping there's something to it....would love to see us being able to go toe to toe with the Citys, Arsenals and Lpools of the world and not just have to rely on counter attack...and despite loving Eriksen so much for the silk he brings, I do think he's a bit of a luxury player in the big games and gets found out a bit defensively when he's asked to play next to Casemiro....

Came here to convince myself that he is good enough after the here we go, I think we'll appreciate him the more he plays

Dare I say this makes me a lot more optimistic about how he might fit in. Honestly underestimated his defensive contributions… let’s see if he can play the 8 consistently.

Great stuff, even with all the info and analysis out there you still managed to present the context in a refreshing manner

Mount, Onana, hojlund/kolo muani/goncalo Ramos, axel disasi would cap off an excellent transfer window in addition to major sales of some deadwood.

Why this is a great signing? - he is young, full of potential and we have seen how ETG can develop players - in training he will be learning from Eriksen, Casemiro, Fernandes Very very exciting indeed.

One thing I always found interesting was that every Chelsea manager and fan always rated Mount highly, while other fans never seem to rate him, that makes me think he has something that doesn't always show up on the stats page that only people who watch him every week see. While I don't think he is a world-class player, I do think he is someone that is worth getting.

Greaaaat content. I've seen a lot of analysis. This is possibly the best.

Mason Mount is a very under rated prem player - he was under appreciated at Chelsea and Man United is very lucky to get him.

This is why tenhag wants mount 10:10 basically, he liked multi positioning players when he was in ajax Blind, Berghuis, Timber are them

Mason went to the school I teach at. I met him just before the last Euros. Great guy; sad for my Chelsea supporting cousins, but love Utd so, Ray Wilkins rides again. ❤

Great video. A blend of stats and eye tests. You always need both to assess a player.

Very good video. I think it is a great signing. Love Onana as well. Worst case we get a great striker next year

Great video now I understand the situation a lot better ty

5:50 its crazy that front 5 won the Champions League just a few years ago lol. I think Mount will be a great signing for us.

Chelsea are gonna have a hard time if they are having to sell players like Mason Mount. Reminds me of the Ander Herrera exit from Man United.

This is great stuff. Thanks!

I'm happy we got him, he's upgrade for eriksen we've missed last season. "When" casemiro gets suspended Mount would fill in the defensive work along with another no.8. Most importantly Mount is a teachers pet and endeared to every chelsea faithful, he has the age and passion and does the required running and compliments Bruno the best. All the other alternatives touted have record of bad locker room track record (rabiot, caicedo etc). And also this feels like somewhat of an ultimatum of sorts from ten hag to get the deal over which shows he already has all the plans in place for Mount to thrive.

You’ve won me with your use of a Subbuteo set!

Great video👍. Had no clue why we were signing Mount. Don't think the deal is worth it if we won't have enough money to get a striker and a keeper but if we do it sounds like a great transfer

Thank you for the fantastic video

Excellent, presentation. I have changed my mind on Mason Mount now… glad we’ve nabbed him. I must say, I thought that Maddison was the better “value buy”, but seeing your superb video explaining Mason’s “extra benefits of his all round game (pressing, positional cover etc.), I am a total convert. Lets hope we also do get a competent No. 9, along with Diogo Costa … and then we’re all set up to at least ‘Mount’ a challenge for the title…. excuse the pun!

after all the saga on Frankie djong, we were not that much in to cacemerio, look how he took our heart, Martinez is also another and am unable to rule out Weg Horst either because he did some job done and it was a panic loan after the injuries in mid season, but if ETG put his time and dedication to sign some one believe me its because he is about to cook us something tantalising.

Perfect analysis, you are the second person who understands Mount signing like I do

Great content, thank you👊

Even for Mount himself, he’ll be benefit from a system that’s a better fit and a manager who knows how to use him effectively.

Brilliant analysis! Spot on.

One more thing to add... What is the main difference between this season and previous 3 years? Most of the lineup is similar (or same). Midfield played solid. Defense was solid. The biggest difference was Mount in form in previous years dragging us into TOP4 offensively and Mount being out of form/injured, where nobody else had no impact to help that. Basically Mount was the only player, who worked properly in offensive part of the game (except of wingbacks). And nobody was able to replace his input. Once he was injured, our numbers went from mediocre to terrible. And did not matter if we played Felix, Noni, Sterling or anybody else. Even this season - we were never doing really well this season. But look at the results and play. Until March Mount was playing. We had some wins, mostly tied the matches. Since his last match 4th March, we had 1 win, 4 ties, 8 loses. You can blame Lampard, but wasnt it partially us missing the most influential player in the team?

your explanation of how precise that mount's pass to havertz is incredibly accurate cos havertz could literally only take one touch before ederson got to the ball and he got a touch still

Great insight mate

Never rated mason mount. But this video is changing my mind

this is a great video. 2 minutes in and you explained this better than the dudes on Peecock

The best video explaining mount I've seen

Brilliant assessment here. Subscribed, liked and commented for the very first time.

Top Vid- thanjs! X

Good analysis mate

I wasn't sure exactly why it was Mason but this video makes it very clear. Nice.

I believe mount is a great signing, maybe up to Licha level last season. We would still require a world class no 9, but with mount in the team, perhaps it would unlock more scorers among the players that would sum up to the single no 9 (if in the end we dont get the no 9 we wanted).

Beautifully explained

This also explains well the dynamic with liverpool's midfield where szob will be more the fernandes and Mac allister will be more the 'mount' kind of role

Don't forget that Onana will be crucial to starting many attacks and us being able to push up now with our defence

Great insight into Mount

Awesome content

Absolute great video, I'm sold now 😂

If we get mount from 2 3 seasons ago be a good addition

9:36 bro casually announced his shirt number 7 days before it was announced

Nice analysis by Eriksen on Eriksen himself

Adaaam😃😃never knew you had a thing aside from what culture this is nice 🤙

I was waiting for this

Mount learning from Eriksen is a very interesting prospect. Could have a player like Mata.

Confirmed deal just had been agreed with both clubs 55mill plus 5 mil add ons

Woah.....turns out Mount is a good player after all....

if you look at scott mctominay postion in the youth academy he was a foward so it’s weird that they try and make him a cdm now

Well now we have him so i can't wait 🎉

Mount was treated so badly after giving 18 years to Chelsea . Utd are going to get a monster of a player this is the buy of the season no matter what else happens in the transfer market true Chelsea fans adore him the media should be ashamed by allowing Boehly to dictate he’s agenda through them

One vid an iam subscribing haha nice

What you described in the first 5mins seems to suit Fred perfectly

Many channels try to justify the signing in some form or other likely because enough people probably feel it's underwhelming or doesn't fit. Just like Kai Havertz to Arsenal

Great video. I think it's increasingly likely to expect only 3 signings at United this summer, Mason Mount, Andre Onana, and that mystery Striker. Honestly we do need Caicedo as well with his versatility as an 8 and 6 (can stand in for Casemiro too), but I don't know what Ten Hag is thinking.

Midfield is the strongest area of the squad? WHAT. Literally the place in the team where all our problems have been..

Adam Cleary!!! Miss you at WhatCulture but best of luck for you at 442! 🎉

This has shifted my opinion on the Mount acquisition. Now I'm satisfied we're getting him. I still think we need a secondary CDM to help Casemiro kill off the games in the latter minutes.

Accurate ❤️

Basically this guy can guy can turn to be our busquets and then some if you count the physicality

Great Video but that backing music is infuriating by the end of the video

as tenacious as Fred but technically better so he won’t lose possession as often. Now a keeper who can play out from the back and a top scorer to compete with Rashford

As always…an absolutely wonderful thread. 😉

I keep saying. Forget caicedo to Arsenal, Arsenal should go for Mount. Most an ideal Xhaka replacement. That said signing Havertz doesn't seem like that's happening

Fernandes and Mount in the same team doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Very different players, but they're both best deployed in the same position, CAM. Mount will need to adjust his game if this is going to work. To be fair, he's the kind of player who is capable of that. I rate Mason Mount, but I'm not convinced this'll be the great signing some people think.

Mount, Onana, Oshimen/Hojland - If we get those three (Preferrably Oshimen) its a great summer

Quality football player.

I’m so excited at Arsenal we took the really best player at Chelsea! There will be no team in PL that buys any other player better than Havertz in this window!

When Mason Mount has a war maneuver based on light speed physics named after him, he might be in same league as Captain Picard

Im actually kinda getting hyped about this signing, in ten hag we trust. Now get hojlund and onana in!

Heyyyyy.. this man used to be on whatcultute right?

Isn't that the guy from what culture wrestling or something. Looong time no see ❤❤

This video just proved how good Bruno is

strongest area of the squad is defence.

Please have a look at his open play assists and rethink this video. Bruno and Eriksen are far better passers and setpiece takers than he is. McTominay and Fred are better defensively. Mount is bang in between on all stats and none are actually favourable. Also, his best stats came under Tuchel with him playing as 1 of 2 no. 10s with a midfield double pivot behind him. It made it easier for him to press and cover space. He will struggle as an 8 in a 4-3-3.

I don’t want Mason Mount at the Theatre Of Dreams but I trust Ten Hag and I believe that he has seen something we can’t all see yet so let’s hope for the best.

Isn't this the dude from the Doctor Who channel??

Not really … one of the first principles of Dutch school is versatility and with United, other than bruno maybe, no player in the team is truly versatile … Antony is one-legged, rashy or garnacho can only do left-center runs, avb can only do defense that also only on one side, sancho has been poor on both sides and dalot is only good at attack … so there’s a big drop in quality when anyone in starting 11 is out, next thing we know is Bruno trying to fit in one of those spots, creativity suffers and balance is lost … eTH was able to work with Malacia and Shaw to add more dimensions to their game but he understands that it’s foolish to expect alot to change with aging Casa & Christen … his backup option of McFred is too risky & is a disaster waiting to happen, so Mount comes in to do the dirty work …

The voice from my trek videos in my football videos is confusing the heck out of me, 😆

He's great ya but im sickened at the likes of caicedo going to chelsea and that. Just blaze for caicedo dont mind the others

That Seinfeld impression was incredible

Wondered where Adam went when leaving WC.

I don't know why I have doubts about this guy. Anyway, the manager wants, give him what he wants. He's accessible.

Stats don't lie.

Ladies and gentlemen we got him🤝🏾😌
