Look at the pace & explosiveness of PSG's attack. Too quick to handle.
This is exactly what Chelsea are looking for. We've already seen how lethal Pulisic's pace & explosiveness is against top 2 PL teams.
Pulisic, Werner, Havertz & Ziyech are gonna run riot next season.. ๐๐ฅ
๐๏ธJose Mourinho: American players came to Europe and began to adapt to the competition. You will find different specifications there, but it is difficult to find a playmaker of the quality and skill of the Chelsea boy (Christian Pulisic).
Minutes per Goal/Assist last season:
Timo Werner - 81'
Hakim Ziyech - 88'
Christian Pulisic - 129'
Tammy Abraham - 129'
Kai Havertz - 138'
Callum Hudson-Odoi - 146'
Chelsea now have one of the most LETHAL attacks in the world! ๐๐ฅ
Thread on Mateo Kovacic's impact this season and why he's Chelsea's POTY & one of the best midfielders in the world atm.
RTs appreciated. ๐
[Stats from fbref via Statsbomb]
Pulisic busted his leg while trying to get Chelsea qualify for the CL last season with 8 G/A in 8 crucial games.
Helped Chelsea get to the CL final by contributing 3 G/A in knockouts.
Today the 22yo became the first American to play & WIN the Champions League.
Incredible! ๐๐
Mount had a Mount game. It's not hard to see why Chelsea spent 90mil on a AM. If this stubborn manager keeps playing Mount ahead of Havertz & losing games, then he's getting sacked very soon.
It's not hard to see why Marina sent scouts to watch Nagelsmann in person.
Jorginho had a Jorginho game and Kovacic looked assured - until Spurs ramped up the intensity after HT. Then the control they had given Chelsea disappeared.
Itโs not hard to see why Lampard wants Rice

Chelsea sold this absolute baller Christian Pulisic who dunked on Liverpool for fun for the squats per 90' merchant Ukraine Bolt
Satanic institution. ๐๐๐
Mighty Chels qualified for the Champions League next season despite selling their best player, having a transfer ban & playing the youth.
Gargantuan institution. ๐๐
@ConnCFC
Pulisic didn't struggle at all & neither is Kai. Lampard played both Pulisic & Havertz out of position, both on RW, for Mount, so no surprise we didn't get to see the performance we expected from them. Hopefully Ziyech comes back & Kai plays more centrally.
