I hope Cho is Eden’s succesor and no Willian anymore with this guy

Until CHO is healthy it will be Pulisic on the RW, and Willian on the left, withe Pedro as the sub at either (or Pedro LW and Pulisic RW with Willian as the sub).

Could be rough waters ahead. Dog help us if Puli doesn't hit the ground running.

All our hopes are in him right now to get us Top 4. Hope for a Salah type of progression.

He is 21

Poor Pulisic, hasn't even played for us and people already putting tons of pressure on him. Ideally, we would want him to hit the ground running but if he doesn't, then I also think that should be understandable given he's only 21, in a new league etc. Give him some time, let him become his own man for us and not compare him with Hazard (because he's not Hazard) or whoever else. And considering we have been complaining for years about the team relying on one player (particularly when that one player has left) to do so something, maybe it's time for EVERYONE in the team to buck up their ideas and put proper shifts in because this whole thing about relying on one player has got to stop!

I hope he delivers for us, but given his career so far, people are not writing him off, its just the reality that he isnt up there with best talents/players. If anything people overrate him for now. How can he be viewed as Eden replacement/future star when he has done so little to prove it?

He is an okay player thats why people are sceptical. And he cost alot.

60m is plenty of money. If the club values him that much, then he must deliver something. For that money you get top player, not someone who will have a good game once per month.

But obviously he was brought because he is american to sell the shirts. 

Even if he becomes a world beater, it was not expected, because right now he just isnt that kind of talent. I would be happy though. 

Chelsea had a choice to bring Eden replacement or someone to sell shirts in Usa and just maybe explode here. They picked the later. Tells you all about where we are as a club.

I have a feeling the club are not that worried about Hazard leaving because they probably think Pulisic is his direct replacement. This lad needs to hit the ground sprinting. He almost doesn't stand a chance lol.

Regardless of his potential and talent

Question 1: can he cope with physical demands of PL?

Question 2: can he stay injury free?

Those two are most important for him to even have a chance to succeed here.

1. Bundesliga is barely a lightweight league, same questions probably werent asked of the likes of Gundogan, Aubamayang, Sane, Son and whoever else. 

2. He had one bad year with injuries and fitness yes but think at his age, a full pre season here and a few months to adapt he will be fine.

To me it seems like a great season for him to start. 

A season where it basically considered a write of, so no pressure at all. 

If he does comes good, no doubt he will be face of the club next season. 

Lets see how he does in the new season.

I agree but you could of also put this in the new manager thread just changing the name to Lampard

only concern I have is he is so slight of frame, with no Eden super-arse to bull his way through traffic, so I hope he can take the punishment as it is surely coming, the EPL is brutally physical, more so each and every year
