A 20 yr old showing potential with a ton of Bundesliga minutes and UCL minutes will always be on a club of Chelsea’s levels’ radar.
I don’t disagree with this but the fact is that CP has 10 goals in over 80 games with BVB and he’s also missed a lot of time to injury. He has potential, no doubt, but he’s a project at Chelsea until he can show otherwise. I think the original point was that there’s a ton of USA bias when judging his overall body of work in Europe.
This whole conversation is ridiculous. He can’t even legally drink in our country yet and some are already starting to get the blankets wet.
Being on their radar and actually buying him are a little different. Pulisic isn't that good, at least for a club with ambitions like Chelsea in my opinion
If you’re a complete player/difference maker at 20 you go to Barca/Real/PSG etc. How many of those players have been sold in the past few years? Mbappe? It’s weird that a lot of American fans seem to overrate most American prospects but then downplay Pulisic to seem impartial.
Maybe you’re confusing us overrating American players to us having to combat the people who assume that whenever an American signs for a team in Europe that marketing must be the sole motive. The mood amongst Bayern fans towards Davies would trend towards him being Julian Green 2.0 rather than someone good enough to play for Bayern if he played for the USMNT. And we’ve been dealing with the first “American Superstar” shit since Freddie Adu so naturally we are cautious about forecasting greatness.
If you go inside their thread a lot of them still think hes a top 5 prospect. They still overrate him
Inside the USMNT thread? I’d love for you to point to a single post that says he’s a top 5 prospect anywhere in the thread. Especially lately
He’s also just being full of shit with that statement. Search the thread for “top 5” there have been 3 posts since the start of 2018 and all were about playing a top 5 team in France
I searched Pulisic next and not seeing anything except talk about him transferring, that Sancho is playing better and when he makes appearances so far
Zeb asked back in early October if people were worried about Pulisic losing his spot to Sancho and I said no. That aged poorly
Are you suggesting a comparison between the two leagues? Specifically as they hold up in European competition? Also, domestically they suck balls.
Interesting. Except since someone other than Bayern won the Bundesliga Spain has had 3 different Liga winners, 3 different clubs play in Champions League finals, 3 different clubs play in the Europa final, appeared in 13 European Finals and won 10 European competitions.
Right and there’s been 5 champions each this century. Any way you cut it both leagues have very little parity. Just a weird hill for you to plant your flag on. And lmao, who the hell cares about the Europa League?
