boratsbrother Report post Posted April 11 I don't think Pulisic has actually played poorly in his last couple of games. More a case of just not seening that much of the ball in dangerous areas, which can happen sometimes. Same with Ziyech. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit - and by "on the horizon", you mean 7 months away. I don't agree with your supposition, but if the World Cup was a month or two away, it might at least make some sense as a theory I'll tell you what it's based on . Me totally forgetting the World Cups being played on the surface of the sun this year so we have to play it later . 😉 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xCELERYx Report post Posted April 12 8 hours ago, paulw66 said: In the home leg, he didn't play well Game before that was Lille away and he scored. Despite the goal I wouldn't say he played particularly well vs Lille personally. His last real good performance was probably the Burnley fixture, where he was actually involved more regularly and picked up a goal and assist in the process. Still, he's been disappointing for much of the season which is virtually on par with the majority of his time here outside of a couple isolated performances and the restart period.

This is known as "Doing an Oscar" The way he played running into that Brazil World Cup made their 7-1 stuffing all the funnier tbh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
