Not yet. It's still Donovan for his performances with the USMNT and impact. Pulisic has a far greater potential, but he's gotta do more with the USMNT
Yes , he’s the greatest USMNT Player
Donovan and Dempsey did more at the international level, but Pulisic is still only 26. We'll see…
The LeBron James* of soccer!
*Edit: this year's LeBron
Christian Pulisic view
European fans 👀: 3.8-4.1 out 5
American fans 👀: 3.9-4.3 out 5
Fans who call the sport soccer 👀: 4.5-5 😂
He isn't yet but he should be in the future.
No doubt. Pulisic is a world-class footballer. He is the most complete player the United States has ever produced and currently one of the top 5 players in the world.
@00:50 selective memory… He was the best player on Chelsea for half the season post return from COVID and took them to the Champions league places
pulisic has been crucial in winning a pokal,champions league,italian cup vs inter milan (arguably the best team in the world),and juventus in that same run,in a conversation of greatness these things matter to an insane degree. u can toss it up to situation but doesnt make the fact his club career obliterates the other 2.
He is by far imo.
Sure hope we don't waist the next 10 years of talent in the U.S. trying to turn everyone into a Christian Pulisic.
We’ve got to stop having these same discussions week after week 😂
cream cheese conrad
I am a fan of Pulisic but I would question if he is the GOAT USMNT Player. He is having a good run at AC Milan but he isnt the best player on the Milan Team nor is he the best player at his position in the Serie A. Globally, he not even close to be in the top 25 of his position. As for the USMNT, it was just 2 years ago he was being criticized by American Soccer pundits and was being brutally scorched by European pundits. Lets give Pulisic credit for his nice run of play but hold off on all the GOAT talk for a few more years.
KickTV reference 🤔
Yes hands down he is the GOAT American player!
From an american and milan fan. Couldnt be happier
Pulisic più forte giocatore americano di calcio di tutti i tempi.♥️🖤
Pulisic is an average player at best… please give it a rest. You sound like you are describing Messi or Ronaldo. Pundit thinks Milan fans are surprised… LOL
Não vir por lá um Rafael Leão ?
our best players have always been in Goal. KC, Freidel, Timmy Howard… most consistent best players at the biggest clubs in the world and at USMNT
"stop yelling at me" lol
Respect to Pulisic but these guys are over exaggerating his stats
Clint Dempsey and Donovan are USA goats
Pulisic great player, surely the best after Leao
in both supercup games Pulisic ran more than any other player, midfielders included
Pulisic is the GOAT no doubt of that
Best club career of an American. That was secured when he won the Champions league with Chelsea. Best USMNT player?? He is on track for it. But he is not there yet.
Club yes, still not for usmnt
Xhaka is Swiss 🫶
8:16 "On The Men's side"? Do we really need that phrase ?
