Mount returned to the matchday squad at Leicester City prior to the international break, following injury, and was introduced as a substitute during Tuesday’s 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest – his first involvement for the Reds since 15 December.
The England international may only have been on the pitch for 12 minutes but our no.7 showed flashes of what he is capable of.
He curled a shot narrowly wide of Matz Sels’s post just moments after being introduced in place of Joshua Zirkzee – the closest United had really come to breaking Forest’s resolve in the second half, before Harry Maguire’s two late opportunities.
