Chelsea playmaker Mason Mount showed off his skills in training last night ahead of the UEFA Super Cup final at Windsor Park.
The England international curled the ball into the goal from a seemingly impossible angle, before nonchalantly walking off the pitch:

Supporters on Twitter were extremely impressed with Mount, with some questioning whether the 22-year-old has any doubters left in the club’s fanbase:

It does seem as though homegrown players have a harder time of things when it comes to impressing fans, but Mount’s performances over the past year have certainly silenced any critics.
You only have to listen to what manager Thomas Tuchel has to say about Mount to understand the England international’s potential. The German said back in May that “there are no limits” as to how far the midfielder can go in the game, going on to praise the player as having the “full package.”
