There is a reason Mount was central to Tuchel’s Champions League winning side (playing 50+ games in a season 3 years consecutively). There’s a reason Klopp + ETH are strongly linked now. One would think City’s team of technical-runners who thrive with the right role in the right system without mostly being global superstars in their own right would have enlightened people .. apparently not. Mount’s exactly the kind of player Fergie would have gone in for .. the “meh”ers would have been saying the same about Carrick ..

Listen son, you might think hiding behind stats you’ve dug up from whoscored.com and posting about “progressive carries” might make you stand out as something of an intellect around here, but to me, to men of the world, to footballing men, you sound like someone who’s never played ball in their life. Willing to bet you sat drooling over games of connect 4 with your merry band of losers at school lunch and stuttering like Gareth Gates whenever a girl (accidentally) brushed past your arm in the corridors while the big boys were in the playground - no matter the weather - emulating their footballing heroes and getting stuck in, both on the pitch and 6 inches deep inside your school crush. Wouldn’t surprise me if you’re also a vegan.
Mason Mount is a man who does the donkey work while the actual talented players around him make the magic happen. He’s one of the Southgate specials. He’s a yes man of a player. Probably still wears a prefect badge he got in sixth form for sucking up to teachers all day long and grassing other kids up. In other words - he’s £#%&!ing shit. Comparing him to Carrick is, quite frankly, a complete and utter insult to big Mike.
You’re out of your depth here, bucko. Best back down now before I call the lads on and things get really messy for you. You don’t want this. You’ve been warned.
And pay your subs.
