I hope Pulisic leaves to a Premier league team and uses his motor to beat Chelsea game after game. Listening to Chelsea fans is like watching spoiled toddlers with toys. What ever toy their siblings have is the toy they want.
No one talks about improving their game, only about playing time. Divork Origi, Firminio, Jota, Walker, etc all have limited playing time. Instead of complaint and ranting about leaving the club, they make the best of the little time they get to prove their worth. The rule is simple, improve if you want more playing time. Left to me, whoever wants to go is free except Kanté. Chelsea cannot move up with highly paid players who refuse to improve and yet, want to play for 90 minutes.
Pulisic should be playing for West Ham or Everton at best. Not Chelsea.
What? Ziyech? Are you joking, I beliave Tuchel must adapt to play 4-2-3-1 to get the best of his mid and front player. Stubbornness at high level will cost you one day Thomas
pulisic is clearly not suited for prem…that miss fam… gave me last season Werner vibes
… Coach ..Tuchel << This Coach is Very BAD .and Very BAD >> …Keep Mr. Tuchel ===> will Never WIN ( Cup + …vv.. )
<<< Coach is NOT GOOD for Him ( Pulisic ) .. << The Goalkeeper is too BAD and the name < Mount > is too BAD ( ONLY )
pulisic was never a key player chelsea he was a gimmick player only because he was American
clint dempsey was a bigger impact in the prem than pulisic ever will be
Kay, Kay, Kay….
Pulisic is so overrated good lord, send him back to the mls
Dude gets better and everyone says he sucks. stupid
No one mentioned CHO
Yes he should leave and join Manchester United 🤣
I stand behind Captain. If u want to see spectacular misses almost every shot look no further than Werner
It’s been 3 years and Pulisic has done nothing spectacular for this team, can’t believe we paid over €60m for this guy, he wasn’t even starting at Dortmund when we bought him. Another bad choice, it’s best we move him on. Man can’t even stay on his feet, falls down off the slightest touch, misses chances for fun in crucial moments. How did we go from Hazard to this? It’s disappointing.
Like Werner he had the chance to join a bigger and better club in Liverpool but took the money instead.
If Pulisic goes to any other English club on Chelsea’s level he’s getting benched into oblivion. He should ba grateful Chelsea still use him in spite of how poor he’s been in the box.
As a Chelsea who watched him every time he plays, puli shows what he’s capable of but then he always fumbles the bag in the final third. He always complains about not starting but when he does, he always misses sitters
another segment for a bang average player
You guys just talk about public interest not facts, Christian is better than majority of Chelsea’s active squad
Cmon liverpool time for revenge
The pathetic cent objectively damage because expert conclusively bubble beside a efficient salary. utter, ill-informed wrinkle
Valverde over Rodrydo to start in THIS FINAL is a no brainer but, a more teasing and perhaps controvercial question is, given the intensity of Liverpool, should Camavinga start ahead of Kroos? Keep in mind there has been much thought on the cover Valverde will provide for Caravajal and yes it true that Mendy is great defensively but against Salah i don't think Mendy would object to the help also having another energetic mid to apply a press and/or track a man does not sound like a terrible game plan. Further, Camavinga can provide QUALITY ball carrying help for Vini, which Mendy, as evidenced in the Betis game, lacks in his game atm,
next year Rodrygo will maybe not even play too much
Real starts with the experienced players ,in a midfielders heavy squad, to absorb all the pressure from the other team. One the opponent gets tired, cama and rodrygo are unleashed
It will be the same line up as always except for the addition of fede.
What's happening with Militao
Don’t matter who they start or bring of the bench, they’ll lose 3-1.
While it makes a lot of sense to play Valverde over Rodrygo. How about Vasquez, he offers a decent mix of both players. Because picking between Val & Rodrygo only means the team is going to be restricted.
If I were Ancellotti, I would start coaching Vasquez on the demands of the final and if he responds well in training I'd take a gamble with him for the first 45 minutes.
I completely agree, he cannot start. Rodrygo only works brilliantly against tired legs, else he'd get bullied off the ball frequently.
i cant understand any one rubbishing the club or fans… i couldnt see a player holding a flag putting the club down on the world stage then not even apologize for it if it was Liverpool Man U or Arsenal the fans would of killed them & the club terminate the players contract..
It's obvious what real madrid team will be, only question is alaba probably
2nd half, slower Kroos and Casemiro replaced by faster Valverde and Camavinga.
That resembles the future Real Madrid midfield I envisioned.
With that energy, I was hoping for more pace and pressing, much like Kloop and Pep's teams, with more possession and faster transition.
But that didn't happen.
I hope it's only bcoz this match was not that relevant, and their priority was to avoid injury.
Hope to see more of this combination in more important matches, and hope it'll be more effective than today.
He must start. Rodrygo and Cama are great subs currently !! They help give some liveliness to the team ! They will eventually become full time starters but they are so young currently
rodrygo good as super sub
When valverde starts madrid are more defensively stable but they lose so much attacking threat. Robertson is going to bomb forward knowing that valverde isn't technically strong so he won't cause a lot danger. Sometimes the best form of attack is to be on the attack. Robertson is less likely to go forward if rodrygo is playing which would mean Liverpool are less effective in attack. Liverpool will win this game because madrid will not be that effective in attack with valverde playing.
Don’t know why I feel like if it goes to ET hazard come alive
It's like 2016/17/18, when we used to rehearse for UCL in a Laliga match.😍
Best game to fling Hazard in or???
