So Mount has gone, been at the club since 6 years old so, even without the CL win, has left a strong legacy of a youth product breaking into the first team and becoming one of the best players in the side.
Which is what he was, make no bones about it, for 2 years he was one of our best players. Not on a kante level of course, but if not for the wastefulness of our strikers over the years the guy would probably have averaged about 10 goals 15 assists over the 20/21 and 21/22 seasons in the prem.
Having said all of that, he has been very very lacklustre for 18 months. I do not blame him for all of this of course, and he had an injury, but he just stopped affecting games. Even to the point where you couldn't blame our forwards for poor finishing or robbing him of assists.
So it is really up in the air what mount that utd will see.
My thoughts on him leaving? He has been essentially bullied on twitter by overseas and even domestic fans, and has been the most hated chelsea player on twitter. But to match going fans who see his quality he has probably been given more time than most to recapture his form after a poor 18 months.
With that in mind I think it is a good deal for all parties.
-Utd get a potentially top class CL proven footballer who can play in multiple positions.
-Chelsea get some very good money for a player with 1 year left on his contract.
- Mount, issues with contract offers, poor form, abuse online...it's a good move for him to go to one of the biggest teams in the world
An overall summary is i'm very on the fence about this, not fussed for the most part but also can't wish him luck going forward which is a shame for a player whos been at the club for so long

As part of the overseas fan group, I would say he IS to blame for last season's results. It's hard to believe that the squad actually lacked creativity up front when you have Mount, Havertz and Ziyech in your squad, never mind all the new additions.
He was the last one to catch blame/fire online after the angy mob latched on Lukaku, Ziyech, Havertz aka all the foreigners first. In practice Mount was seemingly a no doubter starter during this whole 1,5-2 season stretch which for me wasn't warranted at all.
And I rated him highly since his early years at Vitesse, but he's just not that world class playmaker/talisman who often delivers and bail his team out like alot of other 'starplayers' can do. He's a very good player to have for Utd, but very overpaid in the same mould as Maguire was.

Think Mount is a decent signing, no world beater by any means but I think he’ll be quietly effective in eth’s plans and will prove a good buy

what is a world beater baz? Whilst recently I'd agree he was very impressive and even integral to our CL and CWC wins.

This is why the Aussies at present are the best in the world at test cricket. They always have someone who comes up with the goods when the chips are down.

Pretty much how I see it Nick, I certainly am not going to boo him.
