Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel has cleared the air about the criticism of Mount who has played every game under Chelsea ex-coach Frank Lampard.

Mason Mount has been the most criticized Chelsea player under Frank Lampard but Tuchel has made it clear that he will continue to play Mount if he keeps playing with the same energy and giving out his 100 percent on every match he has to play.

"I agree with his potential, I see," the new coach said. "What I’ve seen from the outside and what I’ve seen on the inside, he is 100 percent all the time. He cares a lot about Chelsea. He cares a lot about his team-mates. He is leaving his heart on the pitch.
