Was watching HSV, congrats to them btw, but I see Pulisic drew the PK that sends BVB straight into UCL group play and locks up 3rd. Not bad for all those claiming he wasn't valued anymore.
He played well. Had a few shots on goal, helped spring some counters and obviously drew the penal. Hopefully he plays a big role in the Pokal
I'm stuck due to work reasons travelling on a ferry for hours on Sat. mornings & Sun. evenings. Can only follow matches by text, shame had to miss today's.
It's so ridiculous because it happens so regularly. I'll say this: Durm had some good performances in that role. Mostly when CP was in the front 3/playing AM, probably because CP knows personally how often that spot gets ignored.
I know, a fallacy. But I doubt Dortmund will be able to hold onto him. He said himself he wanted to go to Madrid and supposedly Benzema is set to leave there. If Dortmund were to receive 40 million, they should take it.
If he wants to go, which I suspect he may, they won't be able to hold him. The figures I saw were about 70million but who knows.

Great season by CP. I had no idea he was going to be as instrumental as he was. i was expecting him to actually bounce between the senior team and U21's. He kept his head above water, hung in there and earned a spot in the first team.
They are back in the Champions League , right? That should be great for CP. perhaps they should go after Bobby Wood if Auba leaves. /jk (maybe)
They showed multiple angles during the broadcast. He was definitely hit. The question was whether the defender got the ball first. Conclusion of the commentators (and me ) was that he missed the ball and got CP. Legit PK call.
Wood's been linked to BVB. His buyout clause now that HSV is staying up is 13M instead of 5M. If someone does want him they'll be paying some good money.
No kidding. I think a lot of people here make the mistake of assuming the sun must go around the earth because it rises in the east and sets in the west. There is something in the universe going on besides planet Pulisic. Imagine the politics going on as they head down the homestretch.
