Mason Mount's Premier League stats after Man Utd transfer in 2023 have stunned everyone

Mason Mount's Premier League stats after Man Utd transfer in 2023 have stunned everyone

Mount has struggled since moving from Chelsea.

Mason Mount's stats in the Premier League for Manchester United and Chelsea this year have emerged - they'll be a concern for manager Erik ten Hag.

The 24-year-old swapped Stamford Bridge for Old Trafford in a £60 million transfer over the summer.

Mount has had a tough 18 months, falling out of favour at Chelsea and losing his place in the England squad while picking up several injuries.

He hoped to get his career back on track with United, even being handed the iconic number seven shirt.

However, the whole of 2023 hasn't been going Mount's way.

He's not scored or registered a single Premier League assist this calendar year. The midfielder has not scored a league goal since a 2-0 victory against Bournemouth in December.

Meanwhile, Mount's last assists came in a 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in October 2022, when he managed to grab two.

It's tricky to see where Mount turns a corner. His best position is behind the striker, where United captain Bruno Fernandes plays. The Portugal superstar has an impeccable fitness record and is one of the first names on the teamsheet.

Ten Hag's attempted to use Mount in a deeper position, although there've been a few issues.

United have been overrun in midfield in nearly every game they've played, a long-term issue which doesn't look to have been fixed with Mount's arrival.

Earlier this week, United legend Dimitar Berbatov claimed Mount's feeling the pressure due to his massive price tag.

He explained to Betfair: "We all know he [Mount] needs to step up because he hasn’t played well since joining United.

"So, he’s the player I want to see give more and produce more because in some of the games, it looks like he doesn’t know how to fit into that system.

"He looks a bit lost from time to time, but we all know the quality he possesses.

"He was bought for big money which brings big expectations, but not only that, his stress levels will be high. At this moment, he knows he needs to produce, he knows he needs to step up and show the quality that we all know he has."

United return to action away to Everton on Sunday evening.
