He wouldn't have been high on my list of midfielders but I do think he'll do better than some think too. If nothing else he'll offer much more legs in midfield than Eriksen which, in a funny way, may see us see the best of the Dane in more of a squad role which I'm sure is what ETH intended him to have when he was bought.

Never a player that I’ve said I wish he was a United player but he could turn out to be a clever signing. I do think he’ll be an upgrade on Eriksen.

Like any United player I’ll get behind him and hope for the best.

Agreed. Eriksen can still be a very useful player for us especially in home games against teams who sit in deep.

No point being overly positive or negative on this signing (or any!)... We'll find out in a month or so.

Clearly all guess work by Ornstein and Romano.

Hopefully he’s what we thought we were getting with Donny. I think he’ll be a very useful player. Not every player needs to be a specialist, someone that helps us win the ball back, helps us tick in transition and provides some goals & assists will be great

I don’t think they’re too dissimilar in terms of work rate and good levels of contribution. Not sure he can mark peak Pirlo out of a game but there can be only one Park!!

A good addition.

Just shows what us fans know. Nobody would have predicted we move for him.

Il feel a lot happier once we get a CF and CB in though.

I can't see us getting a CB now, but a CF is absolutely essential

Anyone else find it odd United have signed

Mount
Matic
Mata

From Chelsea....

Mount is very very similar to McTominay (main reason I didn’t really get the signing especially for the price). Potential I guess

But essentially Mount has his good games, has his bad games, does a job and will chip in now and then with goals and assists

Not a world beater and probably never will be but the sort of player you need in some games and in the squad.

Think it’s a good deal for both parties, ala what’ve Reid with Havertz/Arsenal

Don’t suppose you fancy signing Ziyech or Pulisic, we’ll put an M in front of their name

We need 1 to cover Varane. I know Lindelof had a decent little spell, but not enough to be relied upon whenever Varane is unavailable.

Not a bad shout actually.

Hopefully he’s an upgrade on Eriksen.
Very underwhelming signing for me.

As would Onana be too. Granted Dave isn’t what he was and the game has moved on a little, but as a shot stopper there’s no one better so I wouldn’t mind if he stayed on and the money was spent elsewhere.

Feels like we won’t get a top striker this summer

If we go and get a GK that makes as many errors as DDG, if not more, at the expense of a CF, the recruitment people should be shot.

It has been constantly shown he is not the best shot stopper. Talk to hafi to clarify with hard core stats.
