Yeah. I'm not arguing at all that CP and his folks would be/are happy. I'm just wondering why Chelsea would care if he's contributing and they're winning. I doubt he has some sort of inverse playing time pay premium. He cost what he costs. As do CHO, Zi, Mount. How they get mixed up in the 90 makes little difference if Chelski is winning. The issue comes if CP is supposed to carry the team for his big price tag and they are out of the top 5 with him starting. Meanwhile: 1380881010053685249 is not a valid tweet id
didn't expect this start - nice to see. still not sure where the team goals are going to come from, however
My takeaway is that all the mindreaders (particularly in the NBCSN studio) who stated that Tuchel was furious at Pulisic for coming off at halftime last weekend may have been a bit off the mark.
Higginbottom (sp?) was full of righteous fury at CP for failure to exhibit the Manly English Virtues which form the moral center of English football. We are mostly spared that by the Robbies, so Danny adds that Sky Sports vibe to the NBC broadcasts.
Hopefully he lasts more than 1/2 a game without being aware of his hamstrings. Also, I hope he asks to be subbed if he notices them. Awareness is the first step to recovery.
great day so far .... Dike plays great and Barnsley win 2 - 0 and he scores again .... and now CP starting ....
Tough day for Brooks though with 4 goals against Wolfsburg, only real blemish so far outside of the Adams back issue which seems a minor one.

After game TT quotes: "We knew bringing Pulisic along as a super-sub would lead to him scoring early and often. He is a fast player who runs quickly and his speed is at a high velocity. We are very happy with this team effort and I will now play this team until something makes me change again."
