I think Ten Hag knows better what the team needs, Masom Mount is a very good player, it's just that last season the performance of the Chelsea team was bad so many people were disappointed with masom mount, but I think it's not masom mount's fault because of the performance of a team depends on all the players in the squad not just a few players.
And regarding Chelsea who set a very high price, I think it's also very reasonable because Masom Mount is a young player and has good quality so it's possible for this player to develop and be in top performance for a long time.
I am also of the opinion that Manchester United money could be better spent on options other than Mason Mount. The player comes from a bad season in 2022/23 in which the Blues were only in 12th place in the Premier League.
I also find it absurd that Chelsea have rejected three bids for Mount, demanding over £60m for a contract expiring in 2024 is quite 'challenging'.
But back to my opinion on the signing of mount, I reinforce my support for what Paul Scholes has already said.... Mount is indeed a good player, but not a "great" player that Manchester United need at the moment, he is not someone capable of deciding games or producing individual and brilliant moments that can change the scoreboard or at least destabilize the opponents' defense.
