Potter on Pulisic: "He’s a human being. He wants to play, wants to help. It’s about how you put the players on the pitch so it suits them. The role for Christian was a good one for him. It was high wide left, he could attack the back line, and it was nice for him to score." Last three sentences in the quote are the difference between a manager who understands attacking football and one who doesn't understand attacking football. Well done, Mr. Potter. Well done.

Pulisic averaging 1 goal every 6 shots on goal this season. Mount - 15 shots on goal this season, zero (0) goals. I will be more than happy to come out and say Mount has proven all the doubters wrong if he is able to bury the futebol in the Ole onion bag on his 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th or 20th shot attempts against Aston Villa next Sunday. Tune in!

Nahhhh...I will say the same thing about Mount when he actually puts one in the onion bag this season to get off his donut. We are on game 9 now, so hope it will be soon.

Again, we will see how the season plays out. Think the lad will be just fine if he is given an adequate amount of time in his left wing spot.

We will see how the season plays out. Hopefully, with a person with attacking acumen now in charge in Potter, we will see Pulisic starting more and playing in his correct position. You guys keep hating, even when he scores.

Great points

And I read fine. I quoted you - you said anyone who has ever posted about Pulisic thinks he has been downright sh*t. You can backtrack it all you want - those are your exact words. You might have been blinkered when you typed them, but at least own what you wrote, mate.

Well, Americans sure as heck don't say "blinkered."

CP HAS TO play at left wing, his best position. NOT at wingback of false 9, which our boy Tuchel loved to do with him. Mount at center of the 3 in kind of an attacking mid role. Good call. This is exactly how I see it too.

Uhhhhh...no. And again, another Brit calling Pulisic "sh*t". And you are trying to make me feel guilty about my viewpoint on Tuchel? Pot, meet kettle.

Yet, you remain quiet on the Brits who disparage Pulisic. Gutless, you are. And I never claimed to be a Chelsea fan.

Yep!! Replayed it 20 times. Thing of beauty. Loved it!

Since the start of the 19/20 Premier League season: Mason Mount has scored 24 goals in 8671 minutes Christian Pulisic has scored 20 goals in 4989 minutes .

No. Hazardous hates the American. Never seen a Chelsea fan actually root against one of its own as ardently as this tool does. Rather pathetic - because CP scored a great one today in a start at his natural position. Dude again has to tear him apart. If it wasn't so sad it would be laughable.

This offense is 100 times better under Potter - gets the ball upfield quicker and more direct. You see players taking guys one on one more. Love how he has played CP in his best position and has really forced him to stay high and wide. Said from day 1 Mount is more of an attacking mid - great passer and gives you the ability to defend - then a winger. CP better one on one. Needs to get the rust out - got in great position and should have had three today. Like the relationship he had with Mount this game. Mount had two assists - one from the right side, one from the left - give him the ability to roam. Suits him well.

Tuchel was putrid at attacking football. He constantly played guys out of position and had no set offensive scheme. Potter is going to be much, much better. Chelsea is going to be much more dangerous with this guy.

Give him playing time in his best position. Left wing, up top, out wide. This is what you will end up getting. Like what Potter is doing with the offense - actually playing the players where they are best. That asswipe Tuchel didn't do that. Love Mount in more of an attacking mid role. Dude is a good passer, and a good defender. I think Pulisic is much better than Mount at taking guys one on one. The higher you can push CP upfield, the better. And you could tell how rusty CP was today - but he was constantly getting into dangerous spots. Hopefully the beautiful goal will earn him more PT.

Mount has been really good today, on both sides of the ball. Offense and defense.

Facts don't give a f**k about your feelings, to be honest. And I just ran a fact through you. Never mentioned Pulisic.

Mason Mount is the only attacker in the entire Premier League to have 0 G/A this season while playing over 500 minutes in PL games.

Agree that Conner is the star. Without Pulisic penetrating and dishing, though, that goal never happens. Enjoy your night, mate.

Well, he wasn't poor today. And Mount was.

And, with that assist, the Yank has one more assist than Mason Mount this season despite playing 1/8 the amount of time. But keep waxing poetic.

Best player last season is now the worst player on Chelsea this season, but still gets the starts - riddle me that one, Batman.

Someone frame this. Please.
