Mason Mount just had his best match of the season when he helped Manchester United win 4-1 in the Europa League semi-final against Athletic Bilbao in the early morning of May 9.

On TNT Sports , former player Robbie Savage commented: "This could be the best 30 minutes of Mason Mount's career. He had a good performance, an effective substitute option. MU had a bit of trouble but Mount scored 2 world-class goals."

Savage's comments have sparked controversy among fans, but there's no denying that Mount put in a stellar performance.

Izzy Christiansen, a former England player, told BBC : "If I had to choose Mount's best position on the pitch, it would be 'number 10'. He needs to maintain this pace and consistency. In addition, Mount also needs to limit injuries."

Before Mount was brought on, the Old Trafford team was already 1 goal behind by Jauregizar's goal. However, the appearance of Mount along with Luke Shaw and Amad Diallo from the 62nd minute helped MU turn the situation around.

The former Chelsea star scored twice in the 72nd and 90+1st minutes, along with goals from Casemiro and Rasmus Hojlund, helping the "Red Devils" win 4-1 (7-1 on aggregate) to reach the Europa League final against Tottenham.

Joining MU for £55 million from Chelsea, Mount's career at Old Trafford has been challenged by constant injuries. However, with his current form, he is on the way to recovery and finding himself again.

MU have a chance to win the title this season if they beat Tottenham in the Europa League final on May 22.
