MOUNT: I’LL BOUNCE BACK

MASON MOUNT has vowed to learn from his difficult first night as an England starter and insisted his confidence has not been dented. The Chelsea midfielder struggled to make an impact in Prague and Gareth Southgate eventually replaced him in the 73rd minute of the 2-1 defeat. His emotions were very different from last month when he made his senior debut as a substitute against Bulgaria. ‘It is two different experiences,’ said Mount, 20. ‘I am not smiling now, as we lost the game. You can never be happy after that. There is a massive experience to be gained from these games, you learn so much as team.’
