James Maddison brilliantly hits back at Chelsea fans’ X-rated Mason Mount chant by pretending to lift the FA Cup

LEICESTER playmaker James Maddison brilliantly trolled Chelsea fans after being taunted by supporters at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night.

The England international was subject to X-rated chants of ‘You’re just a s*** Mason Mount’ during the Foxes’ 2-1 Premier League defeat in West London.

Chelsea fans instantly looked to poke fun at the 24-year-old after he came off for Kelechi Iheanacho in the second half.

But Maddison was quick to hit back as he reminded Chelsea of their FA Cup final meeting on Saturday where Leicester won 1-0.

The former Norwich midfielder mimicked lifting up the iconic trophy towards the stands as he made his way back to the bench.

Fans were loving his response on social media, as one tweeted: “Top banter, all involved. Well played.”

Another messaged: “It’s this level of bantz you can’t get from fake crowd noise. Also, top work from both sides.”

A third added: “Unreal s***housery. Start him for England.”

Despite heartbreak at Wembley, Thomas Tuchel’s side gained instant revenge on Brendan Rodgers’ men after grinding out a win.

With Liverpool in fifth still having a game in hand, Chelsea couldn’t afford to slip up.

However for the Foxes, they are now in danger of missing out on the top four for a second successive season after winning just once out of their last four league games.

Should the Reds beat Burnley at Turf Moor on Wednesday evening, they will climb above Leicester into fourth spot with a game to play.

Leicester face Tottenham at the King Power Stadium on Sunday knowing they must win if they wish to avoid playing in the Europa League yet again.
