Plenty think he is good.
He was voted Chelsea's player of the season 2 years ago, dont you know.
I thought he played well. 7 tackles made and 7 won. 1 interception. 93% pass completion. This loss isn't on him.
He was, far better than Casemiro or Bruno. These posts all seem pre-written and a bit dumb tbh.
5 dribbles attempted. 3 successful. Don't know how many chances he created. 1 key pass. 2 shots. 1 blocked. Lost possession 4 times.Show all the stats. How many dribbles, chances created, shots. How many balls lost etc.
He is not good enough if he is playing it safe and his only strengths are off the ball.
Not sure if there is a single player out there who could do that for us? The foundations are so weak, nothing much to build up from.You can’t be our marquee Summer midfield signing and come in to be ‘good’, he’s a floor raiser but does nothing to raise the ceiling of the team.
Fair point, just don’t think he moves the needle anywhere near enough for a starting midfielder purchase.Not sure if there is a single player out there who could do that for us? The foundations are so weak, nothing much to build up from.
100% agree. I think, Mount is a good player and I think, the price wasn't crazy (I know, some people say it was, I am a bit ambivalent on that) but when it became obvious, we are interested, I wondered what the plan would be. Only possible solution was ETH was trying to go for the en vogue Box midfield like City. I thought back then, this is a bit of a very ambitious move given our Fullbacks aren't exactly "obvious fits" for that and additionally, I don't rate Bruno as an 8 all too much. So I agree completely, he wouldn't have been my first pick as well. But now he is here and I think, it isn't impossible, to find a way for the team to work with him in it. Actually, from a sole game intelligence perspective, I'd be more optimistic about Mount than I am on Bruno and Rashford. Especially these days.Fair point, just don’t think he moves the needle anywhere near enough for a starting midfielder purchase.
I’ve been a massive backer of EtH but I do not get this signing at this time, given what we require.
His best game so far, still no idea why we bought him for that amount.
A year on a contract is a significant part of any transfer deal/negotiation, not sure what are you trying to say?I don't even think it's that much when you consider how Maguire was bought for £80m (?) and Donny for £40m. It's just because we know he had one year left on his contract and it's Chelsea.
I don't think it was a bad bit of business, but only if you look at this transfer specifically. Because otherwise I think it made little sense to get him.His best game so far, still no idea why we bought him for that amount.

He was one of the better ones out there for us today but somehow it only further demonstrated what a bizarre decision it was to make him target no.1.
Mount is a player who would certainly thrive if surrounded by others who are interested in fast and passing intense football around the opposition's box. There were several moments today in which he did not waste time and space but put the ball in good positions where the next player should have kept the momentum. I personally would like to see him with players like Sancho or Martial, maybe Pellistri or Eriksen.
What a useless player. I cant believe we paid 60m for him. Cant believe we let Spurs take Maddison and get this guy.
