    And the change coincided with Chelsea no longer being holders of that trophy.

    Diaz was also neutralized by this Madrid side. So will Chelsea fans be more appreciative that Pulisic even had chances for the goal when they were matched up?

    Liverpool could have use CP on the left forward spot today.

    Hint hint Klop ;)

    He could have been of use to Madrid as he’s better than Fede.

    Even he’s in a platoon with Diaz and Jota, with an aging Salah he’d absolutely get minutes and shots to excel with Liverpool, and get enough matches to stay fit.

    Would love for ‘Pool to take him as a part of their platoon.

    Same with Man Utd to go with Sancho and Rashford

    Unless one of Mane or Salah leaves this summer which is very probable, Liverpool wouldnt be a good landing spot for Pulisic.

    But their football style would fit Pulisic very well.

    Wouldnt be surprised if Liverpool makes an enquiry just to annoy Chelsea who wouldnt sell under what they paid for CP to a rival....and Liverpool wouldnt buy CP for nowhere close to 50M pound...Maybe half that..25M pound

    Seriously?

    they bought Diogo Jota for 50M after he scored 7 goals for Wolves in about 2400 minutes.

    You’re saying he’s not better than that?

    Re-edited my post...I.thought u said Jota had scored 7 goal for Liverpool this term
    ...instead of 7 goals for Wolves before Liverpool still paid 50M to buy him

    That's great business for Wolves and Liverpool got 15 goals out of Jota which justified the cost....but I somehow doubt they'd still pay Chelsea 50M for Pulisic..

    But I'd like to see it, if Salah or Mane were to leave

    Mostly, I think you’re underrating Pulisic (that’s criticism from but please don’t take it too harshly). He’s an elite talent, and I thing given the right set up would put up really good numbers

    From Liverpool perspective, I honestly dont think they should pay 50M for Pulisic unless they're confident his bust of pace will return.

    Thirty-five years ago when there was no web or social media and the Internet was mainly shared between research centers, universities and the military, you could use a simple command ($ finger) to find out all the personal information of someone whose username and domain you had (through e-mail, through chat, through Usenet).

    So you found real name, phone, office, building, and a project or plan file telling you what they were doing --after all, the overwhelming majority were academics.

    Even back then it wasn't uncommon for someone to call you to your office and tell you you were a piece of shit and that they were coming to kick your ass. So it's not just the current social media.

    Y'all sounding like Pulisic should go play for Everton.

    Let's hope Chelsea doesnt still value him at the same price tag they bough him 2 years ago and make him available for a cut price of maybe 25M.

    Pulisic high price tag was based on potential by being young...Over the past 3 years, it is fair to say he didn't meet expectation, granted, some of that were based on injuries and Tuchel refusal to give him consistent playing time.

    So his true price value should be maybe around 25M-35M since he's 3 years older now and may have lost his best asset which was his pace

    Good grief! He is NOT going to be bought by Manchester City, he is NOT going to be bought by Liverpool, Juventus, Bayern Munich or Real Madrid! But more than that what makes you think Chelsea are going to sell him in the first place!?

    Well


    The reason I’d like Liverpool for Pulisic is that Klopp was the one who signed him as a youth player at Dortmund and has always been a believer in his talent. And Klopp as a coach would get the best out of Pulisic.

    I think it’s more Pulisic might want out and if Chelsea is going to unload some of their attackers this summer, whether Pulisic or someone else. I think they’d listen to offers for Pulisic, Werner, Ziyech, and Lukaku.

    There’s going to be a lot of turnover at Chelsea this summer. Rüdiger and Christensen are gone and Alonso and Azpilicueta aren’t far behind. And with both having one year left on their contract, Kante and Jorginho are potential departures too.

    the consensus seemed to be that Vinicius was better than Alexander-Arnold and that plus Courtois was the difference in the match.

    Minuted 22 Diaz got sandwich and hammered in a tackle and he was not the same the rest of the match. I thought he was going to be the difference maker up till that point.

    just being practical .... I have to agree with you. Just not logical that they would offload him .... they paid ~ 50M pounds for him ... he is worth less than that now ... he is healthy again and he is productive (with the exception of some finishing) .... I still think they get more money if they offload Lukaku, Werner, and Ziyech while having CP as a super sub. As an investment he is like a tech stock beaten down that you hold on to when inflation recedes .... why sell it at a loss with the potential for a big gain over the next few years? Just trying to separate the emotion from the business situation of bringing on and offloading talent (resources) that has a certain current financial value to the business. Unless CP is just not motivated to stay and fight and improve .... and has been blunt in that way with Boehly and Tuchel.

    Yikes the super sub business makes my skin crawl. Pulisic can be a starter on a top 4 club in in a top 5 somewhere if he stays healthy.

    Well, we now fully know CP and his people aren't happy with his current playing time at Chelsea..

    Every publication I've seen over the past week seems to suggest he's strongly considering a move away...His father hinted at it on his twitter.

    Now, that still doesnt mean Chelsea will sell but we know the player may prefer a move away if he's not promised more consistent minute for next term.

    There's rumors that Salah may leave too...If so, it would make sense for Klopp to make a request for CP but I still doubt Chelsea would want to sell him there unless they get the full 50M.

    Of clubs that have been mentioned in the relatively recent past, I would prefer PSG. Beating the hell out of everyone week after week in the league is good for the soul. PSG's biggest hurdle is the CL and Pulisic brings it in that competition. I think he would make them a deeper, more dangerous club.

    Except that PSG normally plays Neymar or Mbappe at Pulisic’s position.

    That and they are a bit of a mess in terms of having no real structure or tactical plan. Along with a having a team where not everyone is required to play defense.
