England has a good team built around a good set of young players like Mason Mount, Sancho, Saka, and Declan Rice. Gareth Southgate managed to find the perfect mixture of experience and youth in his team who are now into the finals of the EURO 2020.
They had a good team on paper in all the previous tournaments but not the right players that were required. In short, they did not have a winning team with a winning mentality but new young players have changed this stereotype and the credit goes to the manager.
Chelsea’s Mason Mount Touted As “The Uncut Gem”
At the heart of this England team, there is a young English mid-fielder who has always dreamt of representing his country at the elite level of football. Mason Mount’s journey began at Chelsea from a very young age coming through the youth ranks.
At first, he found it difficult to gain momentum and was loaned out a few times in search of regular football. In 2019, he signed a 5-year deal with Chelsea and started featuring more under Frank Lampard who always admired the young midfielder.
He found the net 8 times in 53 appearances in all competitions in his first season with the club. He featured in 37 Premier League games and established himself as one of the most promising midfielders in Europe.
In his second spell with Chelsea, he became a crucial part of the team under the new manager Thomas Tuchel who is full of praises for the English midfielder. He featured 54 times in all competitions scoring 7 goals and providing many assists.
His main contribution came in the Champions League final with an assist to Kai Havertz which was the only goal of the match. Now, he has become a crucial part of the England squad as he featured in all of their crucial games in the EURO 2020. He also won Chelsea’s player of the year award last season against quality players in the team like Kante.
