While the forward line received criticism from Ten Hag post-match, issues in midfield are perhaps more concerning. Both Mason Mount and Bruno Fernandes pushed high up the pitch leaving the Brazilian isolated. Before the ex-Chelsea man arrived at Old Trafford, ex-Red Gary Neville had already spotted the issue which reared its head on Monday. Do I think Mount is the player to go in and sort all that out? Mount could then play on the left-hand side of the forward line in the short term, or play centrally should Fernandes play wide.
