Former Arsenal hero and Chelsea fan Paul Merson has showered Blues midfielder, Mason Mount, with immense praise, claiming that the England international was the club's second-best player last season behind Antonio Rudiger.
Since being handed the opportunity to break into the first eleven under Frank Lampard three years ago, Mount has established himself as a regular first-team starter and has continued to maintain strong levels of consistency no matter what position he has been tasked to play.
Last season, the 23-year-old managed to achieve his most productive Premier League campaign to date, registering eleven goals and ten assists in thirty-two appearances.
