The Red Devils star has been able to play in one of the two No 10 roles under United manager Amorim and has also been deployed as a false nine at times.

MUTV pundit Liam Bradford tells Wes Brown exactly what he thinks of Man Utd ace Mason Mount

Mason Mount started for Manchester United in the 4-1 win over Wolves on Monday evening and the former Blues ace made an impact for the Red Devils.

Bruno Fernandes lofted a chipped ball into the Wolves box and United No 7 Mount found himself in space and fired a side-footed volley into the back of the net.

Speaking after United’s result over Wolves at the Molineux, MUTV pundit Liam Bradford waxed lyrical about Mount’s overall Premier League performance.

Liam Bradford was blown away by what the United midfielder produced against Wolves and was in awe at his “intelligence” and “pressing” under Ruben Amorim.

Ruben Amorim loves having Mason Mount in his team!

“Yeah, and [a] captain’s performance from Bruno Fernandes, two goals and an assist for him,” he told Manchester United’s Inside Carrington podcast.

“Mason Mount, absolutely sensational. Again, every time he seems to get the nod to start for Manchester United, his pressing, his energy, his intelligence.

“It’s absolutely fantastic. So, I’m really glad that he came away with [the] Man of the Match award and got himself another goal.”

“Yeah, of course. Yeah,” he said.

“And Mason, you can see [what] the manager really wants, he really likes Mason first of all, he wants to play him all the time.

“And he’s just come into his own a little bit. He’s got great balance. His run, you know, he’s got that in the locker as well. Bruno finds him.”

United are now sixth in the Premier League table and Amorim’s men will now host Bournemouth at Old Trafford on Monday evening next week.
