Pulisic called up for the USMNT, who will be playing TWO matches next week...

If they are friendlies with no qualifying consequences, he will just train with the team.

If he's not going to play for his NT side, why even bother going? Better off just staying back at Cobham and not risk contracting COVID-19 from all the silly travelling.

Much bigger than playing these friendlies is getting the team together so they can play together for games that do count toward qualifying for World Cup. The team does need to train together.

If he's going there, you can bet that Pulisic will play at some capacity, fitness permitting. Otherwise, it's silly to just train and not play when only through playing that the team can improve and work on things.

The US team has not played players that have small injuries in meaningless friendlies. It might be to our determent. Some players in the recent past have just said no thanks to the call ups.

If anyone is interested, there will be a special Q&A with Pulisic and chat with Bruce Buck...

We gotta sign a top class winger next summer if this keep up, were already a winger short and the judges are still out on Odoi, if Pulisic is so injury prone, we can almost never count on him for the majority of the season and reaching our objectives.

Lampard confirmed that Pulisic won't be back this weekend. Trained lightly in midweek but had to stop because he didn't feel comfortable.

Might have to skip the USMNT now...

Praise the Lord if that is the case.

I also read clubs are free to deny their players to join up with the nts anyway. we should definitely make use of this

Bremen have played the COVID-19 quarantine rule card with Josh Sargent.

We should definitely find some ways to do the same...
