Mad Chelsea hero Mason Mount insists John Terry, Joe Cole and Dennis Wise deserve to receive FIFA Icon cards for their services to the Blues.
However, there is no room in their FIFA Ultimate Team for best friend Declan Rice, despite the couple having grown up together.

Rice is a solid friend of Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount, but doesn’t make his Ultimate Team on FIFA
Mount has had a formidable season on the pitch, winning the Champions League and FA Cup after scoring nine goals and registering nine assists in all competitions to earn him a place in the England squad for Euro 2020 .
Off the pitch, the Three Lions midfielder is also on the rise as his stock continues to grow, having been announced as the first official brand ambassador for Combat Gaming, an entertainment, games and gaming company. media that organizes and hosts leading celebrity gaming events.
An avid gamer himself, the 22-year-old will also take part in the Combat Gaming invitational events which will pit celebrities and the world’s most famous players against each other across different titles such as FIFA, Call of Duty and Fortnite.

Mount relaxes when not scoring goals for Chelsea playing a range of games
Mount joked: “Dec wouldn’t be in my FIFA Ultimate Team. He would understand… There are icons, and I feel that his card at the moment is not going to fit on my team. He would be on the bench … Or maybe on reserve.
Although it seems tough, Mount’s decision is justified by Rice’s overall rating of 79 on FIFA 21 Ultimate Team, which is significantly lower than special FUT 21 Icon cards like Patrick Vieira, Johan Cryuff, and Zinedine Zidane, all of which are in the mid-90s.
The Chelsea academy graduate feels some of Stamford Bridge’s most illustrious alumni should be given the title of iconic status on the popular game.
Former captains John Terry and Dennis Wise got the nod from Mount, while he gave EA Sports a subtle boost on fellow creative midfielder Joe Cole.

He added: “JT [John Terry] does not have. He certainly deserves one.
“Joe Cole, I think he deserves one. And Dennis Wise. I think he’s a legend at the club so I would give him one too.
Mason Mount will also host a flagship video game show that will air on Ginx TV available on Sky UK later in the summer of 2021, bringing his passion for the game to screens and global events.
