For me, just looks like the anti-mount brigade is trying to find new things to pin on Mount. No surprise it's Nikki, you and killer.. His last two corners against Arsenal were bad; no denying, but you guys are now clutching at straws to try and make him look like a bad corner shooter, that's ridiculous.

Clearly Tuchel noticed something just like me because Mount who was regular corner taker did not took any corners last 2 games. 

And you saw the result today. Rudiger goal, Werner disallowed goal, Silva big chance in first half... All came after corners. Other corners were also good from Ben and Reece. Today we had just 6 corners and look how important they were. Just like I said, every goal is important and without this change today we would most likely draw another game and miss out on CL. 

So if TT is reading this forum, you are welcome, I accept all the credit...

You have absolutely NO way of knowing that's the reason.

Maybe they wanted to save the extra few meters for one of strongest pressers in the team to give him a break, maybe they wanted him at the edge of the box as he's one of the best shooters from range in this team. Maybe they wanted an in-swinger because they found Schmeichel is bad with those. Maybe TT agrees with you and all of a sudden realized he was a bad corner shooter (he sees him everyday in training, so seems unlikely but moving on).

I could go on, but i am sure you see my point. Bottom line we have no fucking clue of why that is, but to say the reason we score is because Mount did not take the corners is such a flawed logic Nikki.

he's the only shooter from range we've got. 😟

Yes, and arguably James/Rudiger, but definitely something lacking from our other midfielders!

[DDA 9,938]

He was playing with swagger against Leicester last night. The play in the corner when he megged Syonchuiwodoo and set up Pulsiic was just lovely.

Interesting stat here: 

• Chelsea have scored 10 Premier League goals via corners this season, more than any other team. Indeed, the Blues last bagged more goals from corners in a single top-flight campaign in 2016-17 (13).

Well deserved award, been incredible.

It helps that we have CBs who can score - Silva, Rudiger and Zouma.

Also helps when we don't have Willian taking our set pieces anymore!

I think, against SU in 4:1 win at home Mount and Reece played short play after corner and after that Ziyech received the ball, and after cross Chilwell scored. Only with counting goals like that number can be 10.

They wouldn’t count as corners then would they?

This guy winning the player of the year is seriously the most laughable thing I've seen in our history, he can't shoot to save his life, has minimal influence in games, compare this guy to Mendy, Rudiger and Kante, complete laughing stock to say at least he won it above those 3.

He is English man that's why

As long every ball go to him we aren't going to be champion

Been saying this since day fucking one, he should not be the one responsible for spearheading our attack. And I rate the lad immensely.

Not sure if Mount is the main man for that under Tuchel but if he's not playing as an attacker, then what is he supposed to do? What is his role in this team?

The one thing I'd say is Mount gets away with A LOT of things on the pitch with the fans (more pertinent elsewhere), because he came from the academy. If he misses a chance, fluffs a final ball, makes poor decisions etc (and they have happened a lot), not many fans will complain at all. But if it's Werner, Pulisic, Havertz, Ziyech etc, there will be outrage among the fans. Sure, people will argue that Mount cost nothing while the others cost a lot of money but screw that. If people are gonna hold the others to high standards, top level standards, then it should be the same with Mount as well.

He has been shit for a few weeks now too, he needs to be held to the same standards as everyone else.

Just another reason why I want to steer away from the 343 being a permanent formation/system next season.
