Mason Mount has always had haters at Chelsea – that’s just the nature of being a player at a top team with a lot of fans these days.
But last night the hate seemed to infect a lot of England supporters too.
They were watching Gareth Southgate’s team toil to a 0-0 draw against USA, and much like the rest of the midfielder and the attack, Mount was unable to really get anything going.
To be fair to the critics, a lot of the ire was actually directed at Southgate rather than Mount himself. Fans wanted the midfielder taken off – but it was more because they were keen to see Phil Foden or another attacking option on the pitch to change things up than just because of a poor showing from Mason.
But there’s no doubt there were a lot of people unhappy with how the midfielder played. It’s not been his best season at club level either.
Mount has been rubbish at cfc this season, cash in on him now before everyone realises how overated he is
Very true sale him as asap..
