Mason Mount

Mason Mount has a lot of critics in the Chelsea fanbase. However his work ethic can be doubted by none. The youngster works tirelessly to win the ball back and did exactly that throughout the match.

Mount single handedly created the first goal by winning the ball back and then passing a wonderful cross field ball for Callum Hudson Odoi.

While Chelsea have spent big in acquiring the services of Timo Werner, Kai Havertz and Ben Chilwell there’s one silent Assassin who’s done the most benefit. Eduoard Mendy has upgraded Chelsea to a whole new level with his performances.

The former Rennes player returned to haunt his former side with a dominant performance. It can be easily said that Chelsea could be behind on a couple of occasions if not for the presence of Eduoard Mendy.

Olivier Giroud
