CHRISTIAN PULISIC OUTLINES WHAT HE WANTS TO BRING TO CHELSEA AND DISTANCES HIMSELF FROM EDEN HAZARD COMPARISONS

[ZAPHOD2319 4,478]

He is well spoken and very much a team player. There was a lot made about Sancho at Dortmond. What was missed by some that didn't follow Dortmund while Pulisic played there, was how much Christian was a class act to Sancho and all of his teammates. He is a very nice kid. An interview with Sancho about Pulisic.

His piece for The Players' Tribune after US failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup was impressive. Articulated his points about himself, problems facing the USMNT etc very well especially when he was still in his teens!

Hope the commentators doing our games and the pundits don't start the whole "he's a direct replacement for Hazard" bullshit. They will hopefully be smart enough to realize that that's not what he is and that's not was the club intended him to be when we bought him.

He's still a young player with loads of potential. He isn't expected to come in and immedietly destroy the league and carry the side like Eden was. I don't really feel like hearing the comparison all season long.

Our fans as well need to just let him be his own player. We need to keep our expectations in check.

Eden Hazard believes Christian Pulisic is at the perfect club to help him fulfil his abundant potential

I'm with Hazard. Pulisic has some growth left, but he has the right coaches and players around him to do so. He still needs to produce in games and practice, but he can grow here.

It is only pre-season, that is true but at the same time, the "it's only pre-season" statement is kinda a double-edge thing because if we do poorly during it, people would be predicting all sorts of disaster.

It helps getting your confidence up. Like DCosta when he was ripping teams apart in pre season and then started the season with 9 goals in 7 games or so.

While preseason does not tell you what works, it does tell you what doesn’t.

Eg if bakayoko can’t control the football in a preseason match...

Christian and Callum can become players on Hazard, Mbappe level. I'm sure of that.

Weve not even seen Mbappes proper level yet, hes only 20 years old. Fair enough he is probably the best 20 year old I have ever seen play. Real Madrid really should have signed him this summer though, he will only get better and cost much more. He is ready to be the lead player for a club of that stature, still has his inconsistencies but in terms of geniune talent and what he has already accomplished, I would say he is going to be the best player in the world in the next however many seasons. 

Our 2 lads are very good prospects and totally different players in comparsion but I don't think its fair to even put them in comparison to these 2. Its not fair to put many youngsters up against Hazard or Mbappe.
