    At our NT games, Pulisic plays as a RW. Weah/Saeif play the LW

    Do you think I haven't watched every minute of Pulisic on the national team?

    He has played well on both sides for Dortmund repeatedly. In a vacuum where every other spot was set and you got to choose between CP, Saeif, Weah and Amon on the left, who would you choose? He's achieved more at the club level at the position than anyone in the current pool.

    I'm just telling you where most of our players play for the national team. Even at Dortmund, Pulisic has played mostly on the right side.
    Because he is good on both sides, for our national team it boils down to whom else plays 2nd best at either wing. Right now, it looks to be Weah and Saeif. If Pulisic, in your view is a better LW, then who else is best at RW? Weah plays better on the left so is Sheif. The other RW that we have is Arriola which is a significant downgrade from the other two.

    Weah is not a LW, and Saief shouldn't be one. We frankly need Amon to pan out.

    Emotionally or physically? I haven't seen a replay, but sometimes these goal celebrations can be a little too physical.

    I don't think they would tweet about his proficiency with the language if he was seriously hurt.

    Is goalgetter a real word? It's a great one, either way.

    Only thing that would have made that better, IMHO, is if he would have dropped the ball to the guy wide open on the other side, but goal scorers gon' be goal scorers. He blew past that whole team. Kid is a baller.

    Beautiful run & finish. Made it look easy. But let's be real......that was shambolic defending. Criminal in fact. College soccer-ish. Those two CB's had cement in their boots. Amon won't get defending like that in the SuperLiga however I love that confidence to take players on. I want more of that.

    his acceleration and darting through holes to just blow by defenders makes him look like a budget hazard

    Written Danish is said to be the 2nd easiest language to learn if you are English/American, due to the Danish grammar and around 600 common Danish words introduced into English when the Danish Vikings invaded and setteled the Northern half of England (the Danelaw) during the Viking age, while spoken Danish on the other hand is spoken and sound quite different from how it's written, because Danish is quite old fashioned or close to "ancient". This video is really about Amon proving that he has an excellent ear for spoken languages, now understanding spoken Danish perfectly, and also speaking Danish at the end... and no .. he did not get seriously hurt.

    One thing that makes spoken Danish difficult to understand is how words often seem to melt together, like North Sjælland = Nordsjælland ... Mid Jutland = Midtjylland ... North America = Nordamerika and so forth ..
