EPL: Jamie Carragher picks player Man Utd should sign between Rice, Mount

Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher, has suggested that Manchester United should sign West Ham’s Declan Rice over Chelsea’s Mason Mount this summer.

Carragher believes Rice would be a better fit for Manchester United than Mount.

Both Mount and Rice have been linked with a move from their respective club sides this summer.

The two England internationals have drawn the interest of Manchester United.

“Mason Mount is an upgrade on Eriksen in terms of where he plays,” Carragher told Metro UK.

“But going back to Declan Rice, United are one of the few teams at the top who don’t play 4-3-3, it is usually two midfielders with Bruno Fernandes.

“Declan Rice and Mason Mount, they are very different players and it should not be one or the other, but when you look at what Manchester United have got right now, I actually think Declan Rice would be a better fit for them. A lot more expensive of course.”

“I do think he [Mason Mount] is a good player and I like him, I wanted Liverpool to get him. Lots of coaches have picked him and liked him. There is already a good player in there, but Declan Rice would suit United more than Mason Mount in terms of how they set up.”
