I don't really think it's deliberate, it's a subconsciously happens with most players, even Lampard himself got a bit complacent at times (Carlos second season).

It's hard to truly push yourself if you don't really have the competition.

Ancelotti's second season? Would argue that Lampard was already going over the hill back then. So, it's not a surprise if he had tailed off. A lot of the players did that season. Otherwise, he always maintained and up his level in his best years and years approaching that.

He was but even so, he improved from that season when he started being rotated more and knew he had to perform or he'd be shafted to the bench if not the stands.

Could be that. Or could be that his game time needed to be managed better to get more from him at that age, similar to what Fergie did with Giggs IIRC.

His performances have dipped ever since Barkley's been took out of the fold. 

Hopefully Conor Gallagher returns in January to pressure his place.

I'll be surprised if that is the problem. I think Mount performance has been fine. Mount strength is on his energy, pressing and movement (his chance from Jorginho pass). His passing and ball control is just ok. So if you ask him to break down tough defense, he will struggle

I wonder if he is putting too much pressure on himself? He, at times, is rushed to get his shot off.

I think we as supporters are putting too much pressure on him based on how he started the season.

We have to remain patient with him, and based on yesterday he definitely shouldn't be benching Kovacic the clubs best player by a mile this season.

This is the Mount I want to see at Chelsea. Can't really say anything negative about him . Great Performance overall

He ballsed up the ball to Willian in the second half (he passed to a marked Tam while Willian was wide open) but other than that it was a pretty complete performance in a big away match.

Genuinely stunned with the critism in the match thread.

I think it was as I thought before, him and Jorginho had a drop off in form. 

If they drop we all suffer. 

Let's hope with today's display his form is back.

Chelsea fans will love what Mason Mount's dad has said after Spurs victory

Mount was an impressive performer against Spurs at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday and his dad has used social media to have his say on the match and Jose Mourinho

What a performance, easily his best for us. 

We have an absolute gem at our hands.

He hates Spurs too. 

Already a Chelsea legend.

Last season it was Jorginho that drove me mad. This season is Mount. We started the decade with Essien, Ballack and Lampard in the midfield. We ended the season with Jorginho and Mason Mount. It sums up the whole decade in terms of squad quality regression.

Far beyond that fall is at LB.

From the world's best in the last 20 years (Ashley Cole) to the collective pile of dung that is Emerson, Alonso, and the woefully inept (as he is out of position) Azpi.

We could easily upgrade on Willian for the last five years and we never did. I'm afraid it's going to be the same with Mount.
