Pretty sure he was a sub in the final.



Damn, didn't know Champions League was one game.

Thanks for teaching me that.

Yep, you’re right. Christian Jesus-Christ Pulisic single handily won a champions league for Chelsea. As a matter of fact, he was the only player on the pitch. It was a rousing 1v11 match.


Nobody said anything like that. You’re making up an argument you think you can win.

I do wish he would put in more time at the gym and gain some muscle mass.

At 5’10” he is 150 lbs ‘ish, I think if he could add 10 - 15 lbs, it would help him a lot. Not sure why he hasn’t focused more on this. Maybe one of you has some background?

It's incredibly hard to put on upper body weight with a soccer player's training regimen, from what I've seen.

You can be strong on the ball and not have a bunch of muscle. Adams Traore is the exception to soccer builds…most players are built like Pulisic.

CP plays great in any tournament and ACM is auto qualified for CL whereas Chelsea is not.

Glad he was a key cog in Chelsea winning CL, something the Chelsea fans can’t take away from him.

Good move for Puli. He has a lot left to offer and if his injuries are behind he’ll do great. And having the right coach matters too. And ownership.

Plus, upper body injuries haven't been the issue for him.

The hamstrings have been the biggest culprit.

And you wonder why people call our fan base plastic.

I’m not talking about injuries. I’m talking about being able to be stronger on the ball and not get bullied by big defenders. He’s quick so he can get around that sometimes, but would like to seen him get a little stronger.

Why is it hard for a soccer player to do this, as some have implied?

Exactly. I don’t think Broski understands the upper body strength needed in this sport.

Reece James has the build you want. Same exact height as CP and you don’t see him getting pushed around.

Because then he probably has to give up some speed. Idk. He’s made it pretty far in his career at his current size, why change? It’s also probably more his play style. Some players are fast and agile, some are like bulls in a China shop.

I think he could benefit from a new and different fitness regimen without sacrificing speed and agility.

He’s not going to play on the left and take Leao’s position at LW, Brahim Diaz is leaving to go back to Real Madrid and he was their main CAM,RW I could see him grabbing that spot if he can play on the right.

The truth is, he’s a small, fragile player who shows flashes of brilliance and lots of “meh.” He shouldn’t be treated differently than any other player that doesn’t live up to his price tag just because he is American.

Chelsea confirm Christian Pulisic has left the club. The 24yo joins AC Milan after four seasons at Stamford Bridge. 145 games, 26 goals and three major honours.

I didn’t see any gushing posts by you when our Captain parted ways.

Oh yeah, you’re not a Chelsea supporter.
