Mudryk and Madueke would be in the running for Balon D'or if in Serie A.

 

7 goals for Pulisic in 1781 minutes vs 4 for Mudryk in 975. 

Maduake has 3 in 430 mins. 

 

its not only goals

pulsiic is far better than mudryk as a complete footballer

Pulisic just could never stay fit in a vein of form.

yup. Absolutely right it's not only goals esp when circumstances are removed from the equation (against who, when, home/away etc). Not to mention assists, key passes, just regular linkup play... first touch, quick passing, etc.
"If you torture data enough, it will confess to anything you like," so it works for any agenda you like.

I don't think Pulisic is WC myself; think he had moments with us esp first season, but only moments. His routine was struggle to get to top form, play well for a bit, then pick up a knock rinse and repeat.

Mudryk and Madueke are shit players.... way below what an elite club requires in their positions.
The only saving grace for these players is their age, so they can improve even if marginally. Unfortunately for us, the present version of these players play for us, not their future selves.

I couldn't tell if you were serious or joking 

pulisic is a decent player. not world class, but far superior to mudryk and madueke.

it makes no sense to sell him so cheaply and spend almost 100M on madueke and mudryk.

It's because of things like this that we are where we are.

yes.

(I agree with you)

BTW, skill wise, Mudryk is quite a bit better than Madueke at this time. Normally these players would be elsewhere and then come back when, and if, good enough. 😞 An elite club isn't normally a place for the average to develop.

our problem is lack of a center forward that plays with jackson (could be lukaku but he will be sold), lack of a better winger (we need to sell sterling and loan or madueke or mudryk), a creative midfielder with a better assist/pass skill like fabregas and possible next season we need a defender and maybe a left back, if chilwell continues with the injuries problem

yup and sounds like we are missing quite a bit 🙂
Wingers, for example, are typically the better and more expensive players at the top teams--same for CAM.

PL was too physically demanding for him. He's been able to stay a bit healthier playing in the slower Serie A. I'm glad things are working out for him now though never hated Pulisic just didn't work out.

I think we can all agree here. With the caveat that he was pretty important in that CL win (important goals too).

The part that is disappointing is that we managed to downgrade from a player who "just didn't work out".

We downgraded while also paying 10x more, useless owners.

He is on a tear to start the season. After the first month he is on pace to score 30…. I don’t think he can maintain that pace, but he is playing great.

De Gea saved 2 pens in that game.

All three PK's in that match were missed.

I'm surprised Leao or Pulisic didn't take one.

0 hate feelings here. Puli always had the talent and the character to succeed in a top league just not the body to do so in PL. he had plenty of chances but never developed consistency here due to his injuries, Serie A suits him much better, I am happy for him, he deserves his success. 
Comparing him to Mudryk is obv almost an insult but to Madueke is more interesting. Pulisic is clearly more technical and overall the smarter player. But Madueke is almost never injured, quite robust and powerful for a winger so I have no doubt he will have a decent PL career despite having no where near the talent of Pulisic. 
sure we could have had better wingers than Mudryk/madueke to replace Pulisic. but with this squad, it’s dozen talented attackers and glaring lack of ability at CB and GK I will not be complaining about our selection of wingers.
