  1. There’s more competition for places in Chelsea’s team rather than it being limited to a smaller player pool for national team. Chelsea can buy whoever they want, the us can’t buy lol 😂

  2. It is amazing how faith invigorates the soul. The management at Chelsea doesn't have it for him but his country does. It is no wonder he plays better with them. It has seemed from the start with Chelsea that he was brought in to be a decoration rather than a building block. Play him enough to sell jerseys and tv time to Americans, but do not commit too much more. I would love to see him moved to a mid-table team (not that Chelsea isn't at the moment) that will play him as much as he deserves. I'm still not sold that he is built for the EPL, but I believe that you would see the best of him if a club brought him and embraced him.

  3. It's clear that Pulisic needs to be have love and responsibility to thrive. He hates being a side kick at Chelsea. It would be interesting to see the transfer decisions Chelsea makes, with Pulisic and Ziyech performing at the WC and their starters Mount and Sterling disappointing. Chelsea have made a lot of stupid decisions over the last 10 years, Boehly and co. need to get things right.

  4. Chelsea needs to start playing people in their strong positions. Tired of seeing midfielders play as wingers and our wingers as wingbacks. Mount and Gallagher should play as midfielders Pulisic and Ziyech as wingers and so on. How can you expect results when you play these guys out of position. Chelsea is aiming at signing new attackers but continues to leave a gaping hole in the midfield. I tell you now no matter how many key attackers Chelsea gets. If we leave our midfield, with no Defensive midfielder, the team will be in the same cycle.

  5. EPL is a whole different game,it's about competition,in USA pulisic doest have that competition and again he can't be on the bench coz of his experience,also Ronaldo has been on the bench on Manchester but he's in the start 11 at Portugal,point is if he proves himself in the EPL things will be different

  6. If he enjoys playing with the National team so much then why not try to get loaned out to Leeds? Aaronson and Adams are there along with Marsch as their coach. I think that would be badass if he were there.

  7. Everyone looks bad at Chelsea. Pulisic, Sterling, Havertz, Ziyech, Werner, Lukaku, Aubameyang…. It’s not the players it’s the team.

  8. You mean to say Christian prefers to play with friends that he grew up playing with, for a country that he loves, where he actually gets to play, and where people view him as a star? GASP

  9. Idk why this is a shocker to them
    This shows how football has moved to a business mindset and it’s taking over

    It should be normal to want to represent your country period not to mention he’s competing in the biggest competition in sports history

    Why do people expect players to have more pride in a freakin club they just got signed to than the nation they were born and raised in😭

  10. NO COINCIDENCE Chelsea didn't play him, FA definitely influence them to mess with his game because they are playing England in the first round that is no joke

  11. Naturally hate Chelsea as a United fan, and makes me hate them even more that they don’t cherish our boy. It’s so true and so evident. He deserves to play somewhere where the love is mutual. He’ll thrive wherever that may be.

  12. As a US Chelsea fan, I hope that Pulisic can get more time on the pitch. However, Chelsea has a ton of options up front and I think it’s good that he has to fight for the spot. He’s got Sterling, Havertz, Mount, Chillwell, Aubamayang, and Borja looking for spots up front. Hopefully Potter is watching the performance of all of his players in the World Cup and thinking of new ways to use them.

  13. You showed Pulisic's stats at Chelsea compared to USMNT to talk about club vs nation performance. You should have also shown his stats at Dortmund. Maybe it's just Chelsea are using him poorly.

  14. It doesnt matter if he's starting for the biggest team in the world and has been there his entire career. Obviously the USA is going to mean more to him, he's a real American

  15. Christian is not an isolated case in Chelsea. Hakim Ziyech’s situation is similar. But when they are given the chance they shine! Morocco is also in the round of 16.

  16. Watching Pulisic for the past two years he has appeared to have all the balance of a drunk toddler! Hopefully we receive bids in January !

  17. Really good observation by Gomez, and by that man on the subway. Never thought about that. I, for one, am thankful we have a talent and player like Christian Pulisic representing us all! USA! USA!
