Never said he was bad or even worse than anyone else. Mount is clearly a decent player all things considered, however not seeing how this type of midfielder was ever what we were lacking and desperately needed. To me it feels like he is another attempt at adding this hardworking, neat and tidy, attacking mid player we hoped for when signing players like Donny and Sabitzer. We could perhaps even stretch a bit and go back to the days of Kagawa and Mkhitaryan. Also roughly similar in style and quality. It just doesnt´t seem to work very well for us for some reason.I don't think Mount was bad for the first half vs Spurs.
The entire team was tripe against Wolves and I don't see that as a mount issue. I also see no value whatsoever in evaluating from two games.
As you said, only been 2 games so far and we should perhaps be careful in digging too deep into this matter yet. The team needs more time.
But having said that, my thoughts (and fears) about his suitabililty before he arrived was pretty much confirmed in the 2 games we have seen so far, imo.
