The 20-year-old has taken advantage of Chelsea’s two-window transfer ban to cement his place in Frank Lampard’s first team plans at Stamford Bridge.
Mount is Chelsea’s second top scorer this season with four goals while England manager Gareth Southgate has once again included him in his latest squad for upcoming EURO 2020 qualifiers against Czech Republic and Bulgaria.
After another spectacular performance against Southampton on Sunday, Mount has been left in awe of his own bright start.
"You've always got to have that confidence in yourself, to be fair I probably didn't think it would go this well at the start. Everyone is working hard, you can see how much it means to us,” the former Derby County loanee said when asked about his performance.
"It's been going good away from home. There are little things we can work on, obviously conceding, and we had a tough period but away from home we've been very good."
"It's very important. It's the whole squad - there's so much competition and you always have to stay on top of your game. The manager makes us work and try to do your best to get into team.
"It's a transitional team but we don't have that in our heads we want to get as high in the table as we can. A lot of the young boys around us have played together for a long time, it is good having these boys around you in the senior team - it's a massive achievement and now we're looking forward to international break."
