The Lebron james of football they said 😂
Does Pulisic bite his pillow?
Why can't you just f'ing say that CP11 is having the best season of his career, and the he's finally at a club that actually knows how to use him.
He has never behaved in a way that would lead any reasonable person tovthink he needed hand holding. All he's ever needed is the same thing every player should get – to be treated fairly.
Christian Pulisic is playing at an elite level. Just. Say. So.
These are really good numbers 7 goals and 6 assists, and there is still a lot of the season to go. Not even playing as a 9. Not to mention his work rate of the ball. He's really proved he is a better and tougher player than the critics game him credit for.
Did Craig take the desk?
Not sure why people overhyped by him.. he is good player and a sub player.. it's obvious but not TOO GREAT to the point he will be Bale.. no.
I think all players need their teammates and coaches to believe in them.
Star?! Are we joking?!
tell him to get a gf
Gab needs to eat a salad
The only thing leao has is athleticism. He does the same freaking move over and over again. Without his speed he wouldnt be "so much better" than pulisic. If pulisic still had his explosiveness and speed before his hamstring injury during covid, he would be dominating Seri A. If pulisic had leao speed, he would be equal to leao.
In a dead league Pulisic looks good couldn't handle the Prem.
Where’s the espn fc video where these guys said he wouldn’t have 10 goal contributions all year
Since Gab didn't answer Kay's question:
Paulo Dybala placed the ball on the spot and as all the players were sorting themselves out, Koopmeiners of Atalanta went to the spot and moved the ball backwards a few inches. Dybala and he shared words. When Dybala converted the PK, Dybala picked up the ball and as all the players were headed back for the Re-start, Dybala gently threw the ball, underhanded and with little force, at Koopmeiners.
DID YOU EVEN WATCH THE GAME?! It’s a reason Pulisic was still on the pitch for the whole 90 minutes he was running and defending and making passes the whole time. He is doing great you guys are ridiculously harsh
the hate followers/watchers are out the comment section
I’m not saying Ale is wrong, but who played well for Chelsea the last year or so that Pulisic was there, or since he’s left. At some point. It is the organization. They shipped Giroux out because he was too old. He looked pretty good in the World Cup, and is amongst the leaders in goals in Series A right now. Lakaku got benched after he was injured, he looks pretty good now. Havertz , Mount, and Stirling received the benefit of the doubt constantly no matter how bad they sucked. And, guess what they still suck.
Ale is just massaging the American Pulisic.
Pulisic is elite he just always had issues with injuries which hampered his ability to show his worth.
He shoaed it at Chelsea when he had a run of games he shows it with the USMNT and now hes showing it at Milan.
Everyone expects players to just "switch on" irregardless of the situation. Pulisic needs the time to adjust his body to the rigors of the game and at Chelsea they gave no attention to his physical needs. They would throw him in and yank him right back off just as fast and expect him to contribute 50 goals.
Milan is so much better than Chelsea. The fans want him the coach wants him and the players seem to want him. It never felt that way at Chelsea.
gio reyna crying meanwhile
Pulisic has always been a good player bordering great if he did not have injury issues. His injuries is what caused him to get out of favor at Chelsea and it even effected him at Dortmund. For AC Milan, we have not seen any real injury from him so far outside of fatigue thanks to the crowded schedule. I'm hoping we can finally see him complete a season without injury.
Chipped in lol. Get with the program gab pulisic has without question been Milan’s most influential player all year. And tomori being their most consistent. And Leo is completely flustered and frustrated that he has player of pulisics caliber playing next to or opposite him. Bc he doesn’t look
Like the ballon dor snub when he had salamkers and messias. Pulisic has modric level passing execution and selflessness and dribbling like hazard in tight spaces. It’s literally project restart pulisic bc a coach actually
Gave him regular starts.
Players come in for 100 million and don’t contribute as much as Pulisic. He is having a fantastic season. I’m proud of him
