Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount has been panned online for "fixing his hair" during matches in recent times.
The England international is sporting a much longer trim these days, compared to relatively short cut with a fade he had when he broke into the Blues first-team.
Mount has been spotted regularly run his hands through his hair and it's not gone down well with some fans on social media.
In fact, a couple of compilations have even been created to highlight just how much Mount has been sorting his hair out while the game is going on.

"Mason Mount hair flicks highlight," a 16-second video, did the rounds on social media - while there was also a separate viral clip focusing on just the Real Madrid defeat.
On this occasion, the Twitter user was calling for him to win the '2022 Salon d'Or'.
Against Real Madrid, where Chelsea lost the Champions League quarter-final first leg 3-1, there were two instances of Mount's hair-flicking that really angered fans.

When a cross was swung in for Romelu Lukaku, he was doing his hair as he watched the Belgian striker miss the target.
But even worse was the time where the play was right near him and Mount was slow to react because he was focusing on his longish locks.
One might think it's not that deep but Mount's constant hair-fixing has become a major talking point and irritated a whole lot of people:
Mount has scored eight goals in 43 appearances this season and just one off equalling his tally last season.

But the general consensus is that he hasn't been able to replicate his form in 2020/21, where Chelsea won the Champions League for a second time.
