Mount hasn’t made a significant impact at United following his £60 million move from Chelsea in the summer. Despite initial injury setbacks, he hasn’t secured a consistent spot in Erik ten Hag’s midfield. Former United striker Berbatov, speaking to Betfair, shared his perspective on Mount’s predicament.
According to Berbatov, there’s an expectation for Mount to elevate his game as his performances since joining United have been underwhelming. There are instances where he seems unsure of how to integrate into the team’s system, appearing somewhat disoriented. However, Berbatov acknowledges Mount’s inherent quality.
The Bulgarian also noted that Mount’s high price tag brings immense pressure and expectations. Mount is conscious of the need to deliver and showcase his undeniable talent given the circumstances.
United’s lackluster start to the season could have benefited from an in-form Mount. Despite being 24 years old, he’s recently found himself on the bench and was excluded from the last two England squads. He utilized the November international break to recharge in Portsmouth, his hometown.
Mount has a substantial task ahead to justify his acquisition by winning over United supporters. Yet, an improvement in his performances could significantly aid United’s recovery in the Premier League and Champions League, potentially enhancing his popularity. United’s next match after the international break is an away fixture against Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday.
