He's an upgrade where playing out from the back is concerned. I think he'll show the Rags how massively overrated the donut thief actually was. There will be a discussion around how much better they could have been with a keeper who can do more than make average saves look world class for the cameras.

I agree absolutely on this, his distribution is a massive upgrade on De Gea. Ten Hag wants to play out from the back but came a cropper early in the season due to not having the personnel to do it. This guy will help them, large amount of their budgets gone now though to improve other areas.
 
Once again, the rags have spent hugely in the transfer window, but the signings have been very much 'meh' for most people - even some rags.
As you'd expect from our tabloids, Mount is now the nearest thing to a God-like presence in the world of football. He is being painted as far better than KDB (stop that sniggering at the back!), he will -almost single handedly- drag the rags into a title race the likes we've never seen before, and he'll turn Erling into a quivering wreck of nerves every time the two meet on the pitch, and every club in the world, barring none, will be wishing they'd had the foresight to sign the footballing genius that is Mason Mount.

But in the real world he's no more than mediocre. He's certainly not the man to pick up the gauntlet we've lobbed at them from a great height, and he goes nowhere near having the ability to cover for the rest of the expensive dross around him.

With him and OnaYoko (or whatever he's called) they will once again end the season with sweet fuck-all to show for the money they've spent.

This is true. The Daily United have been running with the Mount signs for United headline all week, along with 2 additional stories about Mason Mount every day, on top of 5 additional United stories every day. To Mount's credit, he has had more story time in the Daily United this week than City had the week they won the CL and did the treble. He must be some player this Manson Mount.

Doesn’t matter who the keeper is, their defence does not have the skill set to play out from the back..
 
I dont know mush about him but given how desperate the rags seem for a new keeper i am surprised they haven't been absolutley rinsed for him. I get the feeling that maybe his distribution will be better but his shot stopping maybe not so good.

Their very own Bravo....?
 
When is this week's deadline ?
If I am following this correctly then this week’s deadline is the day after the last deadline the day before. After that then it’s quite possible that the next deadline could possibly be extended until a further deadline can be agreed upon.

This is what my BIFFO mate told me last night. Mind you we had been on the piss all day so I might have forgotten at least 3 of the looming deadlines.

We got a bit daft after that and he bit my arm after I had given him a Chinese burn, which in turn led to the other members of our merry bunch arguing if still calling it a Chinese burn could be considered racist?

Possibly could have missed another deadline during the heated debate.

Double like.
