Like they said before, it's Chelsea FC not England national team. Diversity is the key at Chelsea fc and Pulisic need to play every game good or not. It's about money and entertainment.
Chelsea sucks. I love Borussia Dormund much better. Too bad Pulisic is in a bad club. Chelsea wants to be a good club like Barcelona, but honesty, they need to get rid of the English men. Barca is good because its diverse good players.
Pulisic is living another Sancho situation at Chelsea. Pulisic will have to keep working hard, get stronger and eventually "explode on to the scene" when he gets opportunities. If he keeps at it, he has a chance.
Lalas stating true facts
Random question….. can someone PLEASE give me an update on Tyler Adams’ injury! It’s impossible to find an update anywhere
I’ve watched every Chelsea game. There is no reason he’s not on the field. I also join the pregame chat on the Chelsea app – pretty much everyone else is saying the same thing
I'm sorry I predicted this. He gets a lot of hype, but the stats always have the truth. He was playing for the 2nd biggest team in the second rate bundesliga and had very mediocre stats and lost his place in the first team to Sancho. The EPL is a much higher level with far more quality teams and players, so his stats her hardly going to improve in a tougher league.Also I think Chelsea have more quality players in his position too. He lost his place Sancho in Germany and many people think Hudson-Doi has more talent than Sancho.
not too worried about him as there will be plenty of chances to play, especially when mount overworks himself out of the starting 11 with more injuries. in the meantime, he needs to strengthen his game and study defenses. second half of the season will be his chance to prove doubters wrong.
Did he just compare him to donovan. He’s already surpassed donovan
Christian pulisic been a professional soccer players since 2016 there's no more excuses. I don't want to hear that he's still too young….
Pulisic sucks
He’s this generation’s version of Landon Donovan. Except he chokes under pressure and Mexico doesn’t fear him.
Of course I hope he breaks through, but he’s an “average” upper tier player. The USMNT needs 7 players of his caliber, plus 3-4 rock stars to really play the game with the big dogs at the international level.
US has so many great young players but for some dumb reason the scouts always choose the wrong players and finding a good agent is also hard so thats ways the US never has good young talented players.
Special lmao
He got displaced by Jadon Sancho… can't be that great if you're getting displaced in the Bundesliga for a former Man City Graduate or warming the Bench for Mason Mount.
Sure, a "Star" in the US Nation Team… but he's average at the highest Competition. If he went to Man City in instead, he'd be in the Reserves
Seems about average
Y'all go subscribe to ESPN FC unsubscribe fox sports like how I'm about to do..
He made a mistake leaving Dortmund. . It will be good for him to play for Lyon, Everton or Leipzig. In Chelsea he will only play in carabao cup or fa cup.
I’m Mexican and I don’t understand all the hate towards Pulisic. He’s not cocky, he doesn’t speak much, so there’s no reason to hate. I hope he breaks through.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a overhyped joke
His an average player, I haven’t heard about him at all
😂😂😂😂
Alexi is spot on… for once. Pulisic has all sorts of potential. Everyone wants to see him fail just because he’s American. As a Chelsea fan, I don’t agree with all the choices Lampard makes and one of them is starting Willian over Pulisic.. at least subbing Pulisic on for 30 minutes every game would be sufficient for the start until he proves that he deserves that starting spot. You cannot say you want to rebuild with young talent and play old man Willian who is on a 1 year contract when you have a 21 year old Pulisic with a Fresh contract who has proved himself on the international level, the champions league level with bvb, and bundlesliga. Just hasn’t proved himself in the Prem yet because he hasn’t even been given the chance. Lets not forget his game against Liverpool in the super cup when he had an assist and a goal that was called off by VAR.
Y’all American fans delusional 😂
Here before the comment section gets infested with hating Mexicans
Im going to talk to the ceo of soccer in order to fix this.
He's the average standard player in my opinion
More like a young Jar Jar Binks
