Former Chelsea player and assistant manager Jody Morris has defended winger Christian Pulisic, though he claims that the forward “worries” too much about his game. The USA international has struggled to gain consistency this season, which has often left him on the fringes of the first-team.
The 23-year-old joined from Borussia Dortmund for over £50million in 2019, boasting huge potential at a young age. While he has shown sparks of that, the forward has only managed to start just over one-third of the Premier League season, scoring six and assisting two in 22 appearances in all competitions.
This has led to some speculation surrounding his future with the Blues, with the Qatar 2022 World Cup just on the horizon for the national team captain. Manager Thomas Tuchel discussed the future of the American, calling for calm.
