What led to Christian Pulisic's perfect hat-trick against Burnley?

Christian Pulisic 0:05
Low turn, oh he got himself into real difficulties there, he's let Pulisic in, and he's got it in! Pulisic on the charge again, Christian Pulisic looking to go all the way, and they have! Whip back in, and he's got the hat-trick!
Kelly Cates 0:28
Christian Pulisic, what a night for him! What a night for Christian Pulisic. His first goals for Chelsea and it's only a perfect hat trick. Left foot, right foot and the header for him. It's been a long time coming for him. He's had to be patient in many ways, but he's shown today But he's very much in the reckoning, hasn't he? It's been difficult for him because he's had to see the likes of Mason Mount and Tammy Abrams. And Frank's found a balance in that midfield that he likes. And obviously Hudson-Odoi has come back in the equation. But what you want is players, when they come into the team, to have an impact. And I can see him now.

How did Chelsea's performance impact their standing in the Premier League?

Kelly Cates 1:04
He's walking over. He hasn't got the match ball of him, though, Kelly. I was expecting to see the match ball. But what a night for the young man. It was a fantastic night for Christian Pulisic and a good night for Chelsea. A 4-2 win for them here at Turf Moor. Christian, hi, thanks so much for coming out to talk to us. Make sure you stay nice and warm after that. But look, your first goal's for Chelsea and it's a perfect hat-trick. If you're going to do it, you might as well do it in style.
Frank Lampard 1:24
Yeah, it's unreal. What a day for me, obviously. I'm even happier with the result. I wish we could have gotten a clean sheet, but in the end, definitely a special day for me.
Kelly Cates 1:32
You don't really mind that you didn't get a clean sheet.

What challenges has Christian Pulisic faced in his Chelsea career?

Kelly Cates 1:35
If you score a perfect hat-trick and it's your first goal, you don't mind too much, do you?
Frank Lampard 1:38
Of course, I'm not going to think about it too much while I sleep tonight. Obviously, as a team, that's our goal. But in the end, obviously, I'm very happy with the three goals.
Kelly Cates 1:46
You started to walk off the pitch without the match ball. Is that because it's your first hat-trick and you didn't realise you were supposed to go and get it off the ref?
Frank Lampard 1:53
That is exactly why, yeah. I honestly didn't even think about it. Thankfully, my teammates reminded me.
Kelly Cates 1:58
So, yeah, I got it in the end.

What insights did Frank Lampard share about team dynamics?

Kelly Cates 2:00
Christian, let's talk through your first goal because obviously you're playing on a slightly like a wide left position. You drifted into midfield. You first of all lost the ball, but then you had the desire to win it back. We're going to show you it now. Just talk us through it.
Frank Lampard 2:14
Yeah, obviously I just took a poor touch there and I was just right away. I just wanted to get it back. So here I was trying to, I was going to go straight to goal with my left, but I had to slow down a little bit, put a little move on.
Kelly Cates 2:26
And yeah, I guess it went through his legs, bottom corner. You talk about that little move on, so it's a step over, but normally when you do a step over, you take it with your left foot, but you took it with your right foot there.
Frank Lampard 2:35
Yeah, I don't know. It's just kind of how it felt to me. It was the same with the assist actually last game that I had. I don't know. They don't expect you, I guess, to do that.
Kelly Cates 2:44
A terrific finish in the end, Christian. I mean, at one point there, I thought you'd lost the opportunity to get your shot off, because Burnley get back to you really quickly, and obviously you square up the defender, and then you get your opportunity to get your shot off. Were you at any stage looking for anybody else to help you out there, or was it always one track, I'm going for goal?
Frank Lampard 3:02
I mean, yeah, they actually recovered pretty well, but I know once I kind of had my sights on goal, I was always thinking to myself.
Kelly Cates 3:09
And the second goal, is that a consequence of the confidence now coming through you?

How did Burnley's defensive errors contribute to their loss?

Kelly Cates 3:12
Because you picked the ball up in the midfield and you drive a bit. You get obviously a good piece of play by William, but there you think, right, let's get my shot away if I can.
Frank Lampard 3:20
Defending there from William. And then, yeah, I just took it. I saw the space to my right foot and obviously I got a nice deflection there. But yeah, it was also a great goal.
