Christian Pulisic has adapted to Graham Potter's new wingback role much better than Raheem Sterling, says former USA star Eric Wynalda.
The American was used in a makeshift role again by Potter during the 4-1 loss to Brighton but it wasn't the orthodox wingback role that Thomas Tuchel often set him out in. Instead of acting as the standard up-and-down the flanks player, Pulisic and Sterling weren't relied on defensively in a move that saw the Seagulls tear Chelsea apart.
Unfortunately for Pulisic, who started just his third game under Potter, his relative improvement to the performances seen late under Tuchel have been largely overshadowed by poor league results in past week for the Blues.
