The first detail in Erik Ten Hag’s new Manchester United that surprises

Manchester United left some unexpected details about what they could offer along this Premier League season, in which the main goal of their coach Erik Ten Hag would be returning to the highest level and be ready to compete and lead all the competitions they’ll face.

In this sense, there was an important change of roles from what everyone expected on the field, since Mason Mount’s position and responsibilities in the team were surprisingly different to what it could be seen during the club’s preseason in USA, leaving some news on the pitch from what everyone expected.

In this respect, it could be seen how Mason Mount changed his position on the pitch, being a little more advanced to Casemiro, who remained behind and performing a defensive role to give Mount the chance to develop his attacking abilities and connect with the forward line alongside Bruno Fernandes, in a kind of double 10 system.

In addition, Mount took the lead to kick all the set pieces plays of the team, and the English international could be seen kicking all the corners for Manchester United, being under the spotlight in his first corner kick with the Red Devils, in which he was cheered by Old Trafford’s audience, who wanted to praise their new star.
