Great lineup for CP to be effective, although it prolly means he is not starting this weekend. What I would like to see: - Leeds win, 4-3 (Jesse desperately needs a win) - Pulisic plays lights out, 2 goals 1 assist or 1 goal/2 assists - Pulisic plays a consistent sharp 90 minutes with his touches, taking on guys What I'll prolly get: 1-1 tie, or Chelsea 0-2 win. Grinding battle with Leeds playing tight, defending for life Pulisic pretty effective within limited opportunities, but leaves enough room for the haters to hate
Sets up Kai to start on the weekend. But you'd think one of CP-Lukaku-Mount will be starting both, from the looks of this.
Don’t think I can watch this one. I want Leeds to stay up but I also want Pulisic to be successful and score goals. Something that is very possible since Leeds hasnt adapted to playing out of the back yet and turns over a lot of balls. So I guess I will watch CCV and Celtic win the SPL championship.
They will definitely want to try to take some positive momentum into the final given their recent form.
Simple: Pulisic with a brace by the 65th minute. Tuchel rests him. Leeds then proceed to score 3 unanswered goals to win 3-2
They'd blame him for missing the half chance in the 62nd minute that would have eventually given them a point.
You have at least 2 defenders in this line-up leaving at season end. I'm sure you would get everything from them if playing for a trophy like FA cup but how tuned in will they be to play for securing a 4th place position? They don't get anything out of it. Leeds players will be playing for their Premium lives. Could be interesting match.
Christian Pulisic doubles Chelsea's lead! That's 6 goals this season in the league for him. 💻: @PeacockTV#LEECHE pic.twitter.com/feB0cxHchf— NBC Sports Soccer (@NBCSportsSoccer) May 11, 2022
8 goals in all comps for Pulisic. That is actually not too bad for a winger, who was out with injury very early in the season, and who is in a club with lots of competition in attacking spots. I still hope he can consistently get to that 10+ goal, 5/6+ assist range per season (of course, i would love for that to be even higher). I mean, Mount has 15/16 assists, and about 14 or so goals, right? Would be nice to get CP to that level of stat padding
Not quite that bad, but they have definitely struggled since they lost to Madrid. Easy to lose focus though given the ownership/contract drama plus almost having top 4 locked up. Will be very interesting to see if Tuchel sticks with this front three or brings in Havertz or Werner for a start.
My prediction is Havertz will start the Cup final. Not sure which one of Lukaku or Pulisic gives way to Havertz. (likely Supersub Pulisic gets the short straw.)

Considering he been in and out of the line up consistently and has started at least 4 match at wingback, Pulisic stats doesn't look bad at all. Would love to see him add a few more goals to get into double digits in goal scored.
Agreed. If Pulisic stays healthy and find consistent form, he should be starting 70-80% of the games. He's very talented, but not irreplaceable.
Christian Pulisic goal! 🇺🇸He has now scored a Premier League goal in 10 different months, tying Clint Dempsey and Brian McBride for most by a U.S. international. #ImportantJournalism— Paul Carr (@PaulCarr) May 11, 2022
