It comes when Chelsea boss Graham Potter is surprised that Mason is divided and believes the love his in-form star has for football, Chelsea and team-mates is the key to what makes him so great.

Potter is the latest manager to fall for Mount. He joins Frank Lampard, Thomas Tuchel and Gareth Southgate to quickly make the attacking midfielder a key part of his plans.

Mount is the only outfield player to have started all six of Potter’s games to date and has responded by rediscovering his best form, the player who scored his first Chelsea goals of the season in Sunday’s win over Aston Villa.

He has won the Blues Player of the Season award for the past two seasons, but still has his doubts, having faced accusations of ‘teacher’s cap’ for club and country.

Prior to Wednesday night’s trip to Brentford, Potter said: “It’s surprising I’m getting a few questions about the mixed opinions about Mason. I find that strange, especially from the outside.

“Whenever we played against Chelsea, you always worried about Mason. And then when you start working with him, he has everything you need to be a top player. Great attitude, understands spaces, can give assists, scores goals, so he’s top.’

When asked what Mount’s secret factor is, Potter said, “You probably can’t measure love, can you? I would say love for the game, love for his teammates, love for the club. He likes to play football. It’s as much his personality as his football qualities.’
