After researching some stats on Transfermarkt I realized that managers are to blame for his performances. Pulisic for Chelsea played 133 games. 47 as LW and in those games he scored 15g and had 8a. 47 games but minutes equal to 35 games (3155mins). This is good contribution for a winger. His all best games came as a LW mostly with Frank. In other 86 games when he played RW, AM, SS, RM and CF he scored 11 goals. For example he never scored a goal for Chelsea as RW. This season he played just 2 games as LW and and ofc this is when his only goal came. Last season shocking stat - 38 games just 3 as LW! So it is very easy to see what happened to him. After putting great performances for FL as LW, Tuchel and now Potter decided to change position and he is not the same player since. Not a surprise he is shining again for USA on WC as LW. And when he moves to a rival and starts delivering as LW we will ask what happened? I will tell you, we have fucking amateurs for managers. This is what happened. I am so angry about this. We had tons of attacking players last couple of years and not single one is delivering. For sure it is not theirs fault. It is a system. It is impossible that all Werner, Pulisic, Havertz, Sterling, Ziyech an so on do not deliver after they did before... People now say oh sell Pulisic, sell Havertz... And what? We will get Nkunku, Leao for example, whoever and it would be the same story. Lukaku and Werner left and nothing change. We are even worse in fact... Because of the potential Puli and Kai have, they are the last one I would consider to sell. Ziyech, Auba, Mount, Sterling should go first. Ziyech is 30 soon and does not care, Auba is done, Sterling could maybe do something if we provide system but I did not rate him even in City... Mount has no business in attack but even moving him back in MF would not solve anything because players like him (with managers) are the reason why our attackers cannot do shit. Zero creativity. I hope things change here soon.

Argentina will reach semi final without top opponent. Now Australia and after Netherlands/USA. France will play England in QF. Germany, Portugal will be in other bracket as well. Spain:Brazil most likely will clash in QF. Final before final. And who ever wins should eliminate Argentina in semis.

4 entered.

Why? I'll be cheering for Argentina and Mexico. As a neutral I want all best teams to progress. Germany tomorrow as well.

Nice to see both KK and Pulisic scoring winners in important matches for their NT.

Getting Nkunku probably means we will not go for stars of this WC Gakpo and Kudus?

Brazil didn't face shot on target 2 games. Can't see who can stop them.

No Rice and Nkunku done. Great news.

This guy looks amazing, very excited about him. @OhForAGreavsie what is your opinion, you probably watched him live many times?

He is not performing at last season level. But not sure how much is his fault. There is a position issue and would definitely give him more time. But he is like for like replacement for Mount and another reason not to give 300k to Mason.

That would be the case if Japan got result today. Costa Rica win is good for Germany. Now they have a good chance even with a draw tonight.

Canada up. It would be so cool if Morocco and Canada progress from this group over European teams.

Is this a joke? He has 2 goals in last 2 and a half seasons against teams higher than 12th place on table. It should be actually higher than 15th place but AV improved after manager change and is now 12th. They were 17th when Mount scored brace against them. He costed us big time in both EFL and FA Cup finals last season with missing sitters and penalty. Most criticised England player by fans last EURO and now on WC. How is he big game player? Also he is not playing Kovacic role not to be judged with goals. In two months is going to be 2 years since Tuchel took Chelsea. Since then Mount is exclusively playing in front 3. I don't know why some Chelsea fans have so much trouble to put realistic look on him. Fans favourite and deserves 300k? While for example we have Pulisic who is shit and should be sold to mid table team according to many. But what is difference between them when you put numbers on paper? Mount 32g 37a for us 13217mins. Pulisic 26g 21a 7614mins. Add to that Pulisic doesn't take set pieces and penalties for us. If you take that away from Mount, Pulisic actually has more goals and assists in 5600 less minutes which is like 62 games. They are playing same position for us and should be compared. Don't get me wrong I'm not happy with Pulisic either but main point is that we would make tremendous mistake if we extend Mount for 300k. Even 200k is generous. And really curious to see what would happen if we don't give him what he wants. He thinks someone else is going to pay him that much? No chance.

I want Luis Enrique for years. Quality manager and plays offensive and attractive football which is very rare in Chelsea. One more month of contract with Spain. When TT was still here I said wait for him but no, we have long term plans with Potter!😭

Speaking in a press conference, the Chelsea man said: "The position issue is really getting on my nerves now. Everyone knows that I can play on the right, on the left, as a No. 9 and as a No. 10. Of course the positions are different, but I can play anything up front.

This is true but I'm afraid we'll give him what he wants - 300k. Which would be suicidal move. Just because we made mistake with Sterling doesn't mean we need to make another one. This. I said 3 years ago we are not winning title with him in starting 11. This is his 4th season in Chelsea and we are nowhere near. It will be the same in the future. He is so criticised by England fans. I checked last night twitter, Daily mail comment section, red cafe...

We miss Kostic so much. Also Vlahovic could maybe do something.

How is boycotting WC going?

Because goal difference can make an impact.

Ziyech passing is shocking. Scouting Gvardiol. Looks very good.

FDJ and Dembele were terrific targets unfortunately they didn't want to come. Regarding Ronaldo I don't think he wants us either. Records and trophies drives him and we cannot provide that.

He said to Pierce he rejected 350m for 2 years in Saudi.

Jude yes but what many see in Rice? 100m? Lol it's like paying 100m for Henderson many years ago.
