Former Chelsea centre-back, Frank Leboeuf, has applauded the trio of Mason Mount, Reece James and Thiago Silva after the Blues’ Champions League 3-0 win over AC Milan on Wednesday at Stamford Bridge.

According to Leboeuf, the trio impressed against AC Milan as he lauded the Blues for being less boring against the Serie A champions but feels they’re still ‘far from perfect’ under their manager Graham Potter.

“Last week I was bored [with Chelsea’s performance], the week before I was really bored, and the week before [that] I was still [bored],” Leboeuf told ESPN.

“The only game I have enjoyed from Chelsea since the beginning of the season was against Spurs in August.

“I have to enjoy that win [against Milan] because for the first time, I saw something.

“Mason Mount getting back to his best, Reece James scoring a fantastic goal on top of performing very well and Thiago Silva was very good.

“At the end of the day, when you win 3-0 in the Champions League – OK, yes, Milan had some mini injuries – but with the job done, you have to enjoy it.

“It is a little bit unfair to say it was flat. It is not perfect, it is far from perfect. But I finally saw something a little more enjoyable.

“It is enough for me to be happy until the return game next week.”
