As long as he doesnt start diving like barca player.
No, this is the exact kind of eye rolling material we should expect after a game like yesterday.blindey said:
He may not quite be a Messi, Zidane, Cruyff, Best, Ronaldo, whatever, but no one will roll their eyes mentioning him in the same sentence.
Did I not hedge the wording in my post enough to keep from drawing a condescending dewsh bag response like this? Sheesh.Kampfers said:No, this is the exact kind of eye rolling material we should expect after a game like yesterday.blindey said:

Pulisic may end up that good, but to even be in that sentence he needs to be the best player of his generation. He will assuredly be very good - but the best of a generation? There's only the slightest of possibilities for that.
For BVB, Dembele is a prospect of similar age I would put ahead of Pulisic. That's not to say CP is a bad player. He's excellent. But you're essentially saying he will be the best player of the next 5-10 years, and that's absolutely absurd
I think the players you picked were a little extreme. I would say there is probably next to zero chance that Pulisic could achieve that status, so there's gonna be eyerolling.blindey said:

I said the kid may be our first chance. Not he is assured to be among the footballing gods.

The "best of a generation" talk is a bit much.
But could I see him making a World XI at some point in his career? Sure.

I remember when Stu Holden made a mid season Best XI for the premier league. Then he got his knee thugged out

He got another one. I hope you're right.Dre_00 said:
Did you see what Messi did to his hair? Abominations of personal style are rather frequent in soccer. I'd even argue it's a necessity to be a truly elite player. Pulisic's tattoo ensures greatness...it doesn't deter it.
