Mason Mount reveals Graham Potter tactical change as Chelsea show true credentials v Aston Villa

Mason Mount has revealed Graham Potter made a tactical change at half-time to gain more control of the game against Aston Villa on Sunday.

Mount scored his first and second goals of the season at Villa Park, with the 23-year-old proving to be the difference between the two sides in the 2-0 win for the visitors. He opened the scoring just six minutes into the match, volleying home a mistimed header from Tyrone Mings. Mount doubled Chelsea's lead with a fantastically struck free-kick in the second period to wrap up the match for the Blues.

It didn't all go Chelsea's way, however, and at times they struggled to keep control of the match. If it wasn't for a masterclass from goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, things would have looked very different for the Blues.
