Manchester united is a top club and they the best results inother to lift trophies. Manchester United defeated Leeds United yesterday, winning 2 nil thanks to overwhelming dominance. Erik Ten Hag have improved the performance of the club since his arrival, he is simply preparing the young and new players to become acquainted with one another, as they will pair as teammates on the field in the future. Mason Mount's performance was extraordinary but given that it was his first game as a Manchester United player, he will need more time for adjustment.
Yes Mason Mount needed some time to adapt to Ten Hag's style of play, which is natural considering he needs support and I think what is really important is the emotional connection between the players. As the opening match of the pre-season, Man United won through their academy players. This is also an opportunity for their young players to show their quality and hard work in order to break into the main squad.
Ten Hag made one hundred percent rotation in the second half by fielding their young players including Hugill and Emeran who were products of their academy, as a friendly match the tension of the game was not comparable to an official match. But at least to train squad depth and provide playing minutes for young players is something every coach needs to do. Their next friendly match will face Olympique Lyon, hopefully they can continue the positive trend in that match.
Mason Mount display some glimpse of a quality player in his first half action against Leeds Utd, Erik ten Hag highly commended him for his topnotch performance in that match and I believe he will fit into Man Utd style of play possibly deputize Eriksen or he might get a starting role ahead of Eriksen, he is squad player and versatile player that would help the team, though we can't access him now based on preseason a match, however consistency in his performance when the league fully kickstart should be his major priority because Man Utd is a star-studded club thus there isn't any room for complacency by any player else other plays will take over that role.
