Yeah, but Pulisic's now, I think, 27 years old.
This isn't a story of promise.
Christian Pulisic has won the Champions League with Chelsea for long stretches of time.
He was the best player on AC Milan.
However, this season was really disappointing.
Struggled with injury, which is always the case with him.
However, he's gotten going here very recently, finally scored again for that national team.
And it seems Pochettino, our manager, is going to do what favors his skill set, which is get Christian Pulisic in space.
We have some really good players on the wing.
Tim Weah has been a good player.
Weston McKinney on form has probably been the best club player.
He was the best player for Juventus.
Now, if McKinney is your best player, you have a ceiling, as Juventus found out.
For the U.S.
to get where we all hope that they go, which is a deep run in the knockout stages, it's going to have to be Pulisic.
Because when he's on, when he's in form, he can prove,
against global elites that he is fully, fully capable of being the best player on the pitch.
So those are the three guys that I'm looking for.
Pulisic, I'm looking at Weah, and I'm looking at McKinney.
Yeah, McKinney's going to be good.
