If he is asking for 300 gs a week, sell. I doubt this is right.though.
Very good player by PL standards, but has 2 major flaws. One, he doesn't score anywhere near enough, Two, he doesn't dominate any area of the midfield, despite some great moments. He's hard work for defenders, but doesn't actually control much. This may well be because we have zero plan, formation or method under Potter so far. I could see Mount at City or Liverpool/ Real, being a great player if he knew what was he was expected to do. At Chelsea he looks like a second rate Hazard, same running everywhere like Hazard, but with half the technical talent, and less than half the goals or assists. That's not using his talent properly, but what he is reduced to doing with our 2nd rate team and tactics.
The shambles that is Chelsea since Boehly arrived, and Mount not having a clue what Potter wants or where he is supposed to play is a recurring problem. However, he just doesn't score enough despite having plenty of chances. He is simply not a natural scorer, no matter how much we wish he was. He has plenty to offer, but no chance to give it in our turgid dysfunctional team.
He's no Lampard, more like Paul Scholes, full of running, trouble for opponents, and a dynamo.
But is that what we need?? I have no idea, but every year the Team changes and players' importance changes. Right now I don't think he is doing enough to be an "undroppable". Good as he is, he is not indispensable for the Team and until he is part of a better midfield line up, I wouldn't be surprised if we sell him .He's no De Bruyne, and that is exactly what we need, not just someone who puts in a fantastic shift but scores no goals and no assists.
Mount is a great player looking for the right Team. Not sure anymore it's Chelsea.
