Ruben Amorim’s Magical Mount-fixing Masterplan…
Mason Mount, the forgotten gem of Manchester United, has had a less-than-glamorous start to his Red Devils career, ticking off only 33 appearances since his 2023 Old Trafford arrival. Injuries have clung to him like an overzealous limpet, leaving the 26-year-old grappling for form. But hope springs eternal! Mount made a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it bench cameo at the King Power Stadium against Leicester City, emerging from his injury cocoon, if only to watch the action unfold.
Head coach Ruben Amorim, Mount’s number one fan, is ready with pom-poms and a motivational speech to push Mount back onto center stage post-international break. “Love is in the air,” exclaimed Amorim, putting Cupid to shame. “Seeing him in the side warms my heart. He’s like the perfect soufflé—light, rises well, but needs careful handling.”
Amorim, a visionary disciple of the 3-4-2-1 system from his Tuchel coaching playbook, envisions Mount as crucial in unleashing United’s midfield prowess. With Mount’s mojo poised for a reboot and Amorim lavishing more praise than a Golden Retriever, it’s time to prove Roy Keane dead wrong. “Mason is key,” Amorim continues, preparing Mount to pirouette past doubters and embrace his crescendo moment on the Glorious Pitch of Destiny.
