Frank Lampard: Mason Mount's Maiden Chelsea Goal the '1st of Some Big Moments'

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has praised Mason Mount and said his goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw at home to Leicester City will be the "first of some big moments" for the player in west London.

Lampard—who managed Mount when he was on loan at Derby County during their run to the Championship play-off final last season—spoke to reporters and gave a glowing review of his attacking midfielder:
