Mason Mount has struggled to impress in his early appearances for Man Utd after a £60m summer switch from Chelsea.
After coming through at Stamford Bridge, the England regular had a difficult decision to make on his future and especially so with so much change going on at Chelsea right now. How the midfielder performed in the early days at Old Trafford was always going to see him put firmly under the microscope.
But while Rice has improved Arsenal and Bellingham continues to drop jaws as a Real Madrid player, the jury is out on Mount as he continues to adjust to life at United and in their famous No.7 shirt. However, the 24-year-old finally has the ideal platform to show exactly what all the fuss is about. Rodri and his importance to Manchester City was highlighted drastically in his recent absence through suspension. He missed three games and City were beaten in them all.
"It's like watching a secondary school kid playing against primary school kids," said United hero Rio Ferdinand when asked to analyse Rodri earlier on this season. "He's the conductor of this team. Everything good that happens in this team he's heavily involved everywhere."
