Joe Cole has defended Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount from recent criticism in an interview with YouTube channel Football Daily.
In response to a question over whether the 22-year-old receives unfair flack Cole said: “That’s the sign of the times in it, people don’t want to admit they were wrong." After picking up a second consecutive Chelsea player of the season award in May after winning his first in 2020/21, Mount has still faced backlash online.
"Anyone who’s not having Mason Mount needs to just really have a look at themselves."
