The 22-year-old followed up his eye-catching performance in the 5-0 victory over San Marino with another impressive showing against Albania on Sunday as England continued their winning start to World Cup qualifying with a 2-0 victory in Tirana. Southgate praised Mount for "setting the tone" against San Marino and he was similarly influential against Albania, scoring his fourth England goal in his 15th appearance when he latched onto Harry Kane's pass and finished coolly into the corner. Mount was one of five players to keep his place in the side from Wednesday's win at Wembley but what's more telling is he is the only one to have started their last seven in all competitions. It's a run which dates back to the Nations League win over Belgium in October and it reflects his growing importance to Southgate. There was a rare moment of sloppiness early on when he gifted possession to Albania following an England corner, allowing the hosts to break forward, but he barely put a foot wrong after that.
