    That's Pulisic's day over.

    Not a good game for him under even the most generous interpretation.

    Pedro almost gave up the goal there.

    Leicester is gonna win this.

    CP ended the game a lot stronger. Had a poor 20 minute stretch in the first half but he grew into the game in the second half.

    Pedro and Mount have looked far worse this half. But maybe it’s for the best.

    Pulisic was pretty non-existent. Though after the first 20 minutes, both Mount and Pedro were awful and Pulisic was better. I think Barkley for Mount or Willian for Pedro would’ve been better than taking Pulisic off.

    I'm ok with him going out so I can openly root for the Foxes.

    Looked like he was overthinking and hesitating instead of quick and decisive.

    Yeah Pulisic’s passing was much improved the second half, none of his signature runs though.

    He was fine. Not great not bad. Never really had much opportunity to run at the defense, not really much opportunity to drop in a final ball. When he got it, he played it somewhat safely and tried to bring in others

    I think L'ster is one of the only teams that will give CP trouble when he does that. They are built for speed at every position. They have to keep up with Vardy. Their skill level is not all that. They fight, have size and try to hit you on the counter. All that was on display today. Maddison is their most skillful and size and speed combination. CP will get bullied around this season and he has to learn from it. It took him a moment after he almost had his foot taken off.
