I know some big misses have caused some people to be down about Pulisic, something that didn’t happen with those big misses by Mount in the FA Cup. He is young and can still improve, I get the big game disappointment, but the numbers do not support the shit he has been receiving. 
 

 

He's effectively the best of a bad bunch, so those stats don't mean much.

Hmm., but doesn't say how many chances those players are involved in. 

Guarantee that Mount and Havertz have been involved in more games and chances.

That first goal was special. The burst Puli showed was awesome.

Shit ever since Renard left.

Hope the parties can arrange a transfer. I think the bulk of Chelsea fans will be happier with that, and so will the bulk of Christian Pulisic fans.

He is going to be Boehly’s media machine in growing the Chelsea brand in the US. Even before Boehly the game plugs were not Chelsea vs Arsenal at 10am. It was Christian Pulisic and Chelsea take on Arsenal at 10am. I think they will take it further with Boehly. With the access Boehly’s group gives ESPN and Fox Sports to their other teams, they will probably get more attention for Pulisic and Chelsea. Growing a brand is going to be job #1 for his group in the US. It might even influence Dest coming.

We could do much worse than someone like Pulisic being a media machine. He is actually a useful squad player. If he accepts that he won't be playing every game, then having players like him is good for the team. It's not like he's completely wank, it is being overly exaggerated. He's simply inconsistent, but on his day he can be a handful for the opponent. You can't expect a squad player to be consistently world class, if he was he'd be a definite starter. But I'm good with having him as long as he accepts his role in the team and if Tuchel won't be forced to use him more.

But there inlies the problem, his Dad pretty much let slip he won't (with that tweet he deleted).

Who cares what someone's dad says, is he a child or smth? If he doesn't like it then he better earn his way into the starting eleven or he's free to leave.

Mark Pulisic is not helping his son. I’m sure that was made clear before he deleted the tweet.

Pulisic in LFC? I really want to see it. It will end up in two ways:
- he will be shit same as here
- he will improve a lot and we will see how offensive system(Klopp style) influ on players

If the second point happened why would you want to see that.

I think that's certainly the concern for any Chelsea fan, that in the last few years Liverpool have got very few transfers wrong (of all the big money signings they've made I'd probably argue Keita is the only real disappointment and poor buy they've made). They probably see the same thing that most Chelsea fans see in Pulisic - the potential underneath, it's just incredibly frustrating that he doesn't produce consistently.

I wouldn't be selling Liverpool anyone at present.

Pulisic has been asked to attend the World Cup Venue announcement. It is thought Philly might be a city now as he is from Pennsylvania. Atlanta looks nailed on as a city, so I look forward to whatever matches are held there.
