I was thrilled when we got him. OK, he has been desperately unlucky with injuries, but we are now starting to see the real deal. It&#8217;s like a new signing. Well done, lad.<\/p>\n<p>Keri: Mount and Shaw have very similar stories. When fit, they are assets to any team. When they aren&#8217;t, they are liabilities with huge salaries. There&#8217;s no doubting Mount&#8217;s talent, but it&#8217;s keeping that talent fit that&#8217;s the issue.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Paul: If Mount is the best United can do, we really are in trouble if the team want to progress.<\/p>\n<p>Martin: It&#8217;s a bit early to say Mount has overcome his injury problems but, as a season ticket-holder, I&#8217;m being swayed to think this is the player we bought to improve the team. I like his energy and ability to pick a pass and score goals.<\/p>\n<p>AJ: The only concern I have is the lack of pace in his game. He is incredibly skilful, but he will need to play faster when Amad and Mbeumo are at Afcon.<\/p>\n<p>Chris: Mount is a great player. If he can keep himself fit, he could become a Manchester United legend.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1765539848_785_\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[Getty Images] We asked if your views on Mason Mount have changed, as the Manchester United midfielder continues&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":340335,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[440],"tags":[118768,49,48,2680,62923,149016,9686,561,82],"class_list":["post-340334","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-amad","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-manchester-united","tag-mason-mount","tag-mbeumo","tag-ruben-amorim","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=340334"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340334\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/340335"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=340334"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=340334"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=340334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
