In a frustrating period for both club and country, Mount's levels have dropped off and he has found himself with serious competition for a starting spot at both Chelsea and England. Mount was dropped for Thomas Tuchel's last league game in charge, a 2-1 victory over West Ham at the start of the month, after failing to score or assist in his five previous matches.
It's a barren run that has coincided with England faltering ahead of the winter World Cup and Chelsea parting with Tuchel, now bringing in Potter, and the new manager has been shown the way to keep Mount's form up.

With the second half equaliser against Germany, making the game 2-2 in a dramatic three-goal fightback in 12 minutes, Mount helped to transform the game in a whirlwind period. His introduction for the final 25 minutes was his last chance to pledge a case for a starting role when Gareth Southgate's tournament starts against Iran on November 24.
Mount couldn't have done much more and left with a goal fitting of the occasion, arguably matching Kai Havertz's earlier stunner with his own perfectly placed finish. Potter will have been watching on with glee as his stars stole the show and one of Chelsea's most important players found the spotlight again.
It was something that Ian Wright loved about Mount's game, the explosive anger that came from him after coming on, and is exactly what Potter needs to channel in his 23-year-old star to get him firing in blue once more.
"I love the vexed Mason Mount," Wright said after the match. "I like the Mount that came, the vexed Mason Mount!" the former Arsenal forward told The Ringer.
For the first time since becoming a true first team regular for England or Chelsea, Mount's standards have drastically risen and he is now judged alongside the best players in the league after finishing with double figures in goals and assists last term.
Now he is off the mark Potter will want to keep Mount's energy and enthusiasm in anyway possible, starting with it being evident in the trip to Crystal Palace on Saturday.
