Another attacking mid/wide forward type player, isn't he?  Chelsea seems to be a graveyard for them of late.  How many have they signed/brought through with high hopes, or looked decent for a bit.  Only to then totally go off the boil?  

 

I know it might change under Potter.  But it just feels like they have had shitloads of them over the last few seasons.

Nkunku got 35 goals and 20 assists from 52 games in all competitions last season. Outrageous numbers. Whether that's Bundesliga tax remains to be seen but he was probably my dream urealistic signing before the Maddison links (who I don't think is unrealistic at all now).

Nkunku is an incredible player, just glad he's not going to city tbh.

Will play as the 9 you’d think 

They have Sesko already plus you’d think Werner will be in the deal somewhere

Haven't watched a lot of Mount but whenever I've seen him I haven't seen him in the CM role, he always plays wide for England and when I've seen him for Chelsea he's been in a more advanced role too. Saying that, I've not watched a ton of him

Isn’t Mount a CM and N’Kunku a wide forward? Don’t understand why they’re being compared. 


Nkunku started off as a wide player before he started playing more centrally between the lines. However now in the last year or so he has played as a forward centrally.

Whenever i've seen him he's either in a forward role (AM or wide or false 9). Or he's in a midfield 3 with 2 more defensively sound players where he has license to get forward.... so an AM there too.

 

2 out of Kovacic, Jorginho & Kante as the spine with Mount further ahead or coming off the flanks.

 

Looking at transfermarkt he's played a lot at CM. I do think it's mostly with 2 of those lot beside.

 

His style is different and more industrious. But I compare him to Madisson. As in probably ideal at 10 with 2 CM's behind him and an attacker ahead. But can also play off the flanks if needed or as part of a midfeld 3 where he is the most attacking.

But that’s still nothing like mount right who’s best in the midfield but can play in the forward line if need be. Like if I’m doing the England line I always include Mason Mount in the midfield as he can get into good forward positions and can do well in midfield as shown with his assist to Havertz in the CL final. 
 

i think we all have this dream of Mount becoming Lampard mkii but he’s got some different attributes that managers like to play with.
