To be fair the OP kind of set it up to turn into that



certainly wasn't my intention. both clubs just happen to be the ones most discussed at the moment for pulisic. i will admit i should have known that this is how it would play out however.

i genuinely just wanted to hear from other posters about what clubs they thought would be a good fit for pulisic outside of dortmund. it was supposed to be a fun hypothetical discussion.

Honestly I think Liverpool would be a decent fit, as would Bayern. Those would be my top choices.

His work rate makes him fit in almost every system

Just some clubs are better with young players than others

If any of the big clubs get him it would be some what a marketing ploy for the US market

As are some managers. Klopp is synonymous with developing young players. There are regularly 4 players in Liverpool’s starting 11 that are 24 and under. His youth movement at Dortmund is legendary. The implication that united under Mourinho is a superior atmosphere for a young player than Liverpool under Klopp is patently false.

JM pretty much has no choice but to embrace the culture of playing youth at United

He played the youngest side ever in club history last year instead of playing a bunch of squad players who are in and out the team.

And if CP wants to win trophies we already know the obvious choice

So where do you figure he fits in at United?

He could play on either wing or in the 10

Jose for the most part has been phasing old players out the squad

But honestly I don’t see him pushing out any of the attacking players at either United or Liverpool.

He needs to stay at Dortmund

Give me Schalke for some Pulisic/McKennie midfield magic. Plus, he could play the heel by leaving BVB for Schalke.

Are you counting Paul Pogba as a united youth academy success story


How would he not be, he was good the first time he was at United. But wanted more playing time and left.

I 100% agree that our academy sucks but you used to never give us credit for Sterling because he came in at 16 but you want credit for Pogba when he got there at 16?

Him staying at Dortmund where he can learn to develop a final pass and release the ball earlier, as well as develop scoring range. If he can be the man at Dortmund and have the offensive phase run through him, he can have his choice of where he wants to go. He's such a good dribbler that he could go to La Liga as well. The PL doesn't reward dribblers as much as La Liga does, and the pattern of play in the PL, outside of Man City, has been poor this season.

Now that I see Cwil's sig pic, it does seem that Pulisic would fit in with the Dab army of Manchester.

LFC.. to see a lot of people cry...

Seriously, to suggest Klopp (forget every other LFC manager, because its irrelevant) doesn't develop young talent is absurd.. He wouldn't pay the fee, he would command, to put him in the reserves or sit him on the bench... would he play every match, probably not... but he wouldn't at any other of the top EPL sides either...

I'm sure he'd also develop well at any of the top clubs in England, as well..
