Erik ten Hag has expressed worries over injuries to Mason Mount and Kobbie Mainoo following Manchester United’s 3-0 loss to Tottenham. The Red Devils lost heavily at Old Trafford, as Spurs dominated the Premier League game, aggravating United’s problems on a trying afternoon.
Late in the first half, the issues began when captain Bruno Fernandes spotted red for a challenge on James Maddison. Ten Hag had to introduce Mason Mount before the break as United’s promising prospect Kobbie Mainoo was subbed off after apparently picking up an injury. Still, the bad news kept coming: Mount suffered a terrible head injury later in the game, resulting in a bleeding wound.
Ten Hag’s Mainoo and Mount Update
Ten Hag expressed concern over Mainoo’s condition but couldn’t offer complete information on the injury when speaking with MUTV post-match. Right now, I am unable to say. I have to find out, but naturally there are some issues when a player is leaving before half-time already.” stated the United manager.
United will be eager to evaluate the degree of both players’ fitness given Mainoo subbed off early and Mount’s head injury adds to the array of problems. Ten Hag hopes to acquire more knowledge shortly since the team wants to recover from this embarrassing loss.
