Pulisic would work very well with Isak, in my view. Darlow will go too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Not seen too much of Pulisic tbh so not best placed to make any type of judgement on him but I don't recall seeing take a single game by the scruff of the neck and drag his team through it. Maybe he's not that type of player or I've missed the times he has done it but I'm far from convinced and if he's going to cost a few bob then I think I'd prefer to look elsewhere. That said if Howe wants him and we end up getting him then he'll get my full support obviously. I trust the manager and trust the scouts and recruitment team to choose their targets carefully.

Cronky Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Pulisic would be a good signing - we don't have anyone quite like him. I imagine he'd be well motivated, in that he apparently feels a bit ill-used by Chelsea and has something to prove. I thought he put a lot into his performances at the World Cup too. Having said that, why would Chelsea want to sell him to a club which - incredibly - is now a rival for a CL place. Besides, they don't seem to be short of money.

That said if Howe wants him and we end up getting him then he'll get my full support obviously. I trust the manager and trust the scouts and recruitment team to choose their targets carefully. He's done it a few times for Chelsea, particularly in the period with no fans in the stadiums. I don't think he is exactly that player, though. He's much better being involved in quick, short build up play or crashing the box and becoming a second forward. I've seen him enough to know he would be a good signing for us. Hasn't really lived up to his talent at Chelsea, but if he stays healthy and gets to work with Howe I think he'll finally get there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Pulisic is a good footballer - his injury record is nightmarish though so unless there’s some hope of improving it you’d think we’d avoid. As a player he’s clearly a step up from the likes of Murphy and Fraser. That’s why the rebuild is fun - most of our signings are almost guaranteed to succeed given who they’re replacing.

LFEE Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) Well if it’s a credible link for Pulisic it might be on the back burner again as it looks like Broja has just done his ACL so might need him for cover even if slightly different players.

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Pulisic would fit very well for a high press. I imagine tapping in to the US market would be quite beneficial too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
