Tomo 21,751 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 The only way he should be anywhere near this team right now is either a) an impact sub or b) trying him as a wingback in Ben's absence. Callum is infinity times better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have actually not been that protective of him here. In fact I was the one who said he needed to go on Loan embarrassingly 😅  We arent like Belgians or Egyptians on here. I remember when even implying that Hazard did something wrong would get you paragraphs on paragraphs from Stingray using some obscure European philosopher to tell you why you are wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAPHOD2319 4,818 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 I hope he gets past the injuries because the kid really does have his head screwed on straight. He also absolutely loves the sport and club. Interesting interview. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 I know Pulisic has been playing in different positions of late but think @Tomo hit the nail on the head not too long ago. Barring the purple patch after the lockdown back in 2019/20, Pulisic has not been good/consistent at all when he starts (unless it's against Crystal Palace). He has been better when coming off the bench against tired legs etc. Tuchel was onto something with his comments and usage of him last season. Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 He is useless as a false 9. Even better as rwb. Would rather use him as a sub. But is a sub worth the fee? Can easily see us selling him for those 40m in summer probably time we buy some proven wc winger  like chiesa. Tho there are very few of those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issue is, what is he actually demonstrating right now that gives any hope he will 're explode? I've said it as a joke a few times but he's really starting to look like an American version of Alex Iwobi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,320 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Pulisic and Ziyech are only of our 7 attackers I ever saw delivering from the bench. Pulisic in Chelsea had 10 games with goals or assist from the bench Ziyech 2 times this season. And this may trick you Pulisic won his place sometimes and deserves to start but once he does nothing happens. Use his as super sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still not enough for someone who cost us €50m. We bought Werner to score goals, contributing assists alone isn't enough when almost all of our forwards are also underperforms.

Something need to change either they start performs or we will bring a replacement. Edited December 18, 2021 by Blues Forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
