Chelsea’s decision to appoint Graham Potter is beginning to look like a masterstroke from the new regime. Despite the nature of the win against luckless Aston Villa, Blues fans should expect plenty more magical moments with the Englishman at the helm.

A brace from the in-form Mason Mount, which included a stunning free-kick into the top right corner midway through the second half, secured a fifth consecutive victory in all competitions for Potter’s side as they moved back into the top four of the Premier League.
