Who cares Eden Hazard retired…..
Pulisic is benefiting immensely from having someone like Leao playing along side him. Pulisic just needs to make the runs, and Leao is gonna find him in the box to get a ton of goals. And they're still building chemistry. The best is yet to come.

Well this video is for pulusic American fans & of course AC Milan but I think he wouldn't last the whole season in terms of consistency & because he is injury prone.
some players like pulisic need love to flourish, other players like malik tillman needs naps 😅
As of right now Christian Pulisic is playing the best football of his career at AC Milan. With less pressure and playing in a league that’s not as demanding as the premier league he’s thriving and doing very well. It’s not even just the league he has been playing a lot and it’s not a surprise that his performances have been relatively good as of right now and he just has to maintain it.
It’s crazy that when he was at Chelsea he was a fringe player constantly getting injured and not playing a lot of football and now at AC Milan Christian Pulisic has been in top form for them chipping in with goals and assists and he’s sharp and confident whenever he plays. Over the years we’ve noticed that not a lot of attackers have really improved since going to Chelsea and when they leave that club they find their form elsewhere and that’s a common theme for ex Chelsea attackers and we’re seeing that with Christian Pulisic at AC Milan Joao Felix at Barcelona and Romelu Lukaku at Roma I’m happy that he’s thriving at Milan and he has to remain consistent and not get injured.
No… after the restart Pulisic carried Chelsea to top 4… he is on good form now but not quite restart form.
Pulisic isn’t a Center forward or winger. He’s more of a second striker playing in the hole.
To make use of him he needs a big man to tag alongside to get the best out of his penetrative runs as long as they link up
He's definitely a confidence player… need him to realize he's a baller and make it happen
He has looked great but no this is not the best he's looked. His run in 2019 he made the PL look easy and he had English Chelsea fans apologizing to him on social media after games for the team not being at this level. It's how he earned that 10 jersey and unfortunately for him Chelsea has been a disaster ever since they stopped playing him.
It's also funny how people blame him for not getting minutes and say "do you think it was 3 different managers fault?"…. uhhh have you seen their records since they stopped playing him? Tuchel was doing AWFUL when he got fired and wasn't using him, Potter did awful the entire time and never used him, and Lampard was also terrible in his 2nd run and didn't use him. So yes, I think the managers were the real problem there and I love that he is proving that with Milan.
Pulisic is not at ‘Project Restart’ level just yet, but he’s showing signs of returning back to that form. Hopefully minus the injuries. His explosive pace is back, however, his skilled dribbling is not fully there just yet. What I like about his run in AC Milan thus far versus Chelsea and even Dortmund is how the team is the least selfish on the ball. There have been a lot of times where players refuse to pass the ball to Pulisic in a dangerous area at both Dortmund and Chelsea while I am seeing less of that happening at Milan. So even with him not being at ‘Project Restart’ form, I see him scoring more goals this season if he remains healthy.
He is playing in a league with less athletic players so he is more potent their, where his speed makes a bigger different. Pulisic was too small and weak for the Premier League to a star player because the defenders in England have power, speed and height dominated him physically. Serie A is a lower quality so he will look better there.
Pulisic didn't play his best football at Chelsea but he's doing well at Milan. Still a long way to get to his Dortmund form.
