Mason Mount has laughed about his “burning eyes” - but admitted he hates being made to sit out games.
Former Chelsea boss Frank Lampard first used the phrase about how Mount’s eyes would burn into the back of his head if he was ever left out, and current manager Thomas Tuchel has said similar.
Chelsea midfielder Mount, 23, admits there are times when a player needs a rest - but says he will never, ever tell a manager to leave him out of the starting line-up.
