Chelsea’s Actions Are Forcing Christian Pulisic’s Hand

For the majority of Christian Pulisic’s time at Chelsea, the U.S. national team star has effectively operated under some version of the same mantra that goes something like:

At a big club like Chelsea, you constantly have to prove yourself and perform. That’s what you sign up for at a place like this, and that’s what I’m going to do.

The narrative has remained a constant despite the vast amount of change that has occurred at Chelsea since Pulisic arrived in 2019. The club has cycled through three managers in that time: first Maurizio Sarri, then Frank Lampard and now Thomas Tuchel.
