I must have seen a different game,best player on the pitch in my opinion. Have said it five years ago and will say it again now,the lad will play for his country and be in our midfield for years to come.
I actually think he is being played out of position.
Spur of the moment
Frederic Kanoute
Don't think anyone is overrating him, just recognising his positive qualities as compared with the likes of Capoue, Bentaleb, Carroll, Stambouli etc. Would you not agree he was our best midfielder today?
Nigeyman
Chris Armstrong
tell me more......what is his best position?
GrimsbyYid
Gus Poyet
possibly yeah, but more because everyone else us under performing. Maybe I'll be proved wrong, but I see an average player playing well, and much more talented players being disappointing. the fact he's playing best is kore depressing than thinking he's great.

AM it's been obvious to me since the Gooner game.

Look at the utter cretins commentating and as pundits today and on programmes like Soccer Saturday, I'm not surprised they havent a clue
If that had've been Wheelchair instead of Mason he would've got MoM 100%
has he played there yet for the first team?

Michael Brown
Yes further forward. Play him where Christian is at the moment. After all that is where he grew up playing. Just happy to see him in the team though.
superfaisty
Nico Claesen
Say what you like but he works in pochs system- that said he should've got a yellow at the least for his antics with Benteke, but it's that sort of desire we lack in this team. Too many nicey nicey players and not enough desire or fight.

No not for our first team.
It's clear that's his natural position though..you can see that almost immediately by his movement and the positions he picks up on the pitch (offensively and defensively).

IMO he doesn't do a enough defensively to be in a CM pair but he really does moved the ball nicely. Capoue blows hot and cold, but to be fair he has been a bit overworked at times and some of that is do with Mason. The idea to play him further up the pitch is not a bad one. We would be tending more towards a midfield triangle then but it would be an interesting experiment.

I thought he was comfortably our best player from what I saw from my vantage point at Villa
Park today.
Finney Is Back
Luka Modric
What is it about him that you think is average?
I see a player who has excellent control, good positioning, finds space, has good vision, two feet and plays for the team.
I dont agree with that at all (assuming you mean playing in one of the '3' in Poch's 4-2-3-1). Mason brings to us what we've been missing since Modric left, namely a CM who can get the ball moving quickly from deep positions or the middle of the pitch. That sort of player is essential to making counter attacks. To me he's in his ideal position
