A new clip from Mason Mount's Premier League debut for Manchester United has emerged, painting a completely different picture of his impact.
The England international sealed a sensational move to Old Trafford this summer, swapping Chelsea for the Red Devils.
Erik ten Hag wasted no time drafting him into his starting XI during United's EPL opener against Wolves on Monday night.
However, the midfielder saw himself come under heavy criticism from fans due to his underwhelming performance.
According to talkSPORT, the former Chelsea ace claimed zero goals, zero assists, created zero chances, made zero crosses, won zero tackles, and won zero aerial duals during his time on the pitch.
One particular incident, where Mount unsuccessfully attempted to dribble past two Wolves players, also became a major talking point of the game.

Mount's work ethic and passion from the incident sparked praise from fans online.
