This young ace from Chelsea is an absolute bargain at his price (6.1M); he's got everything going for him. Mason Mount plays the #10 role in a very attacking Chelsea team and is on a lot of set pieces for the team. He loves to shoot on sight, and he's Frank Lampard's pet, having worked with him last season at Derby County, scoring 11 times and assisting six times for them.

Chelsea have a host of favorable fixtures right until GW12, with the visit of Liverpool in GW6 the only real tough fixture. In any given season, FPL gaffers would have to pay atleast 9 million for a goal-scoring Chelsea midfielder, however we've been given a gift with his pricing.

Mount has already scored two goals in three starts this season and stats indicate that he isn't being lucky. Mount has had the most shots on goal amongst all midfielders this season (the same as Raheem Sterling) and has a substantial assist threat as well, since he is on set pieces (he has created seven chances this season so far). He has really taken to the premiership under Lampard. The one possible issue with Mount and Chelsea could be Champions League rotation policy, but at his price you really have to take that gamble.
