I did. A lot of fans did.

It didn't take genius foresight - he was a highly promising player last season.

This isn't club bias either, we have had several of pan flashes and overrated prospects over the years.

It probably is club bias. I’d imagine if you asked any Chelsea fan this time last season who would have the more successful season out of him and Ziyech all would have chose the latter unless you are called CMF

Much bigger concern was whether Havertz and him can play in the same team.

I also don't see how my view is club bias if you are claiming most fans preferred Ziyech...

They can be separate points

Mount was very Jesse Lingard-like last season. He’s seemed to have become a lot more than just ‘a lot of energy’ this year - statistically he’s better in almost every department.
----------------------------------------------------------------------Did Lingard score a clutch freekick at the most important moment of the season for Utd some time?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Does a winner in extra time in a FA Cup final count in this ridiculous, autistic scenario?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How is it in any way autistic?

Is that a yes?

You didnt answer my question

My point with Mount was he showed off incredible technique in a high pressure situation

The idea that he ever looked like Lingard (a limited but high effort player) is just silly and you should back away from it tbh

I don't follow your logic - I don't how fans allegedly dismissing Mount this summer means they have a club bias in saying he is great and they always thought he would be. That makes them fickle, not biased.

I also dispute this - pretty much every Chelsea fan I speak to thought Mount was the real deal.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Well Chelsea fans thinking the world of him (to paraphrase) as a youth product whose initial biggest virtue was athleticism is just about the number 1 category for club bias.

The Ziyech point is separate

Classic Blarmy acting like a petulant child again

Mad how Chelsea fans will kick off about people critiquing mount when they've not seen enough of him to comment and yet are happy to do the same with Aurier

He's the perfect example of somebody who should be on this list - a disaster class for his whole spurs career who is having a surprisingly good season

I've seen plenty of Spurs fans disagree with Edin on Aurier too

Go ask Hengy

I think spatial awareness and intelligent pressing is a much more impressive feat than 'athleticism'.

Literally never seen anyone say its athleticism that is his best attribute

Apparently relatively harmless opinions about a player that may be different (but is also praising) is grounds for angry fans of a certain club . Only Chelsea fan I remember truly waxing lyrical on here that wasn’t CMF regarding Mount was Nick

Pretty sure Hengy has also said Aurier is having a good season

Nah mate

I guess it depends how you define waxing lyrical, but morons on Twitter aside (that every fanbase has) Mount has been the one player the large majority of Chelsea fans agree on being quality from the beginning of last season.

There's division on Christensen, CHO, Abraham... but Mount (and to a lesser extent James) is the one/two that we knew would be awesome.

Yeah I'm not surprised Mount has done well this session. I'm not going to claim I knew much about him but a young player improving is hardly a shock

Defiantly agree with Dawson
