BIRMINGHAM, England: Graham Potter's impressive start as Chelsea manager continued as Mason Mount's double gave his side a 2-0 Premier League victory at struggling Aston Villa on Sunday (Oct 16).
Aston Villa would land a manager with a background in ‘managing elite players’ if they replaced Steven Gerrard with Mauricio Pochettino and it would be ‘strange’ to ignore the Argentinian at Villa Park, according to Dean Jones.
Chelsea are unbeaten in six games since Potter replaced Thomas Tuchel at Stamford Bridge and the win at Villa was their fifth in a row in all competitions. They were given a helping hand by their hosts with Mount cashing in on a horribly misguided defensive header by Tyrone Mings in the sixth minute. Villa responded well and created several good chances before the break but were frustrated by Chelsea's keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga who made a series of saves including a miraculous one to deny Danny Ings an equaliser.

To Villa's dismay, Chelsea were gifted an early lead after just six minutes as Tyrone Mings misjudged a headed clearance, and Mason Mount was in the right place at the right time to latch onto the loose ball and slot it home from inside the box.
