The counter to this is Mount has played 2 games in the role. If we take a step back the whole team has looked sluggish and poor, there's a clear argument that the experiment to move him to 8 could have been more gradual but then I don't think he dislodges Rashford - Bruno - Antony so it's kind of where he has to succeed.I think that a lot of people comfort themselves by thinking our current manager can do no wrong. He is a bit of a genius right! Right?
If Erik wants Mount than Mount is clearly a very good player that will fit our needs perfectly. He has Eriks approval and that is all we need to know. Right?
Really? Because on the pitch it doesn't.Wout was an last resort type of signing. ETH had all the option in the world and went for Mount. He knows what he wants from the player.
Did you have similar opinion to our new signings after the first two league games last season?Really? Because on the pitch it doesn't.
At least Martinez showed qualities in those games. And Eriksen we all knew about. Mount, who I do not blame 100% btw, has done what?Did you have similar opinion to our new signings after the first two league games last season?
He's yet to do much but it's two games. Its a lot better than Casemiro first two appearance and look how instrumental he's been. We also know Mount, we know in his time in Chelsea he was the guy with the highest goals, assists, chance creation. He was literally their best player but go on...At least Martinez showed qualities in those games. And Eriksen we all knew about. Mount, who I do not blame 100% btw, has done what?
Sometimes, I'd like to loan all three, Amrabat, Hojbjerg, Gravenberch, just to see who sticks better to this riddle called current MUFC squad.Højbjerg has been my number two on the list after FdJ for a long time. Leader, Quality Passer, Power, Assists & Goals, loads of PL-Experience and never injured. Him being out at Spurs right now is a system thing. It has nothing to do with failing form. At 28, he has at least 3-4 good years left. At 35 mio. you will not get anyone playing at his level. Buy.
He's got a bit of the shithouse about him and for that reason I would like him as well as Amrabat.
I'd rather get two midfielders than get one CM and a left back.
You should take your own advice. Hojlund is an outlier, overall we don't buy young exciting talents, especially in midfield.We just bought Hojlund get a grip!
I mean that's just it, this doesn't seem true. We're not in for Højbjerg at all. At most there was an enquiry asking how much Spurs want but it goes no further than that. They've already scared Atlético away.Not that I want him here but if we’re turning up cap in hand offering Fiorentina peanuts for Amrabat on loan then how the hell do we expect to go and sign a midfielder from Spurs and Levy of all people?
if we don't get him now and amrabat neither, we could try a shock move for Kone or Thuram.

A non-story then. There are thousands of pokes and prods for players but unless teams talk money it's nothing.The story is you were offered him, not that you inquired.
I'd rather play him in front of both Mct and out of position Mount in CM.Please no. Would rather keep Mctominey
I probably prefer Hojberg but it sounds like Spurs want twice as much for him as Fiorentina are after for Amrabat and we're already struggling to find that much.I’d rather us sign Amrabat even if neither look special
He was terrible against Fulham last night. Not good enough for a top 6 team, would be delighted if you coughed up 25m for him.

Yep, seems that way. Hope hojbjerg doesn’t happen and they have no option but to break the bank for Mctominay.So that's Amrabat, Hojbjerg or McTominay as a possible replacement for Palhinha.
He would be amazing, also to help Hojlund settle
Oh, are they friends?
