Is American Jesus hitting up the WAG circuit yet? Surely he should be slaying top shelf by now.

For as much game as he has on the pitch, I have a feeling he has absolutely no game off of it, even if he is a superstar.

I was really hoping his move to London was going to result in him being outed as a ruthless slut by the tabloids, but it’s probably more likely that he just stays in playing Fortnite all the time like a tween.

Can't wait to watch him play in some WC qualifiers, he has hit his stride and will possibly be the best US player of all time. Change my mind.

I could see this happening. Just hope that someone at either striker or center mid will step up their game to provide that 1-2 punch. Right now I don't see anyone on the USMNT whose form could be seen as complimentary to that of Pulisic's.

McKennie, Adams, Reyna are all high-quality midfielders.

Without a doubt each of those guy are talented. But in terms of the USMNT taking that next step, I'm not convinced that any of those guy are playing at/near Christian's current level. I'm speaking in terms of someone that would be viewed as playing at a world-class level as opposed to just being more of a role player.

That’s such a bad take, because just by Pulisic being the first true world-class player we’ve ever had, we take that “next step”.

This idea that everyone is supposed to be World-Class is just not realistic at all, but having a bunch of solid top-flight euro based players is.

ETA: How the hell can you already say Reyna can’t be World Class? He’s 17 and playing for BVB... just like Pulisic was at that age.

I feel like there's a few levels between the two that you mentioned.

Re-read my friend. Said nothing about "Everyone" being top shelf, but merely someone else on his level to be a true "compliment". You hardly have a top-level side that doesn't have such a 1-2 combination among their attacking players.

Ok and how can Reyna not be that guy?

Again, it was a shite take by you.

Mount is not only the best player on the team, he’s arguably the best young player in the league.

I have no dog in the fight, so I’m objectively right.
