Christian Pulisic may not get a better option to stake his claim for a spot in Graham Potter's Chelsea team. As the Blues travel to Austria to face RB Salzburg in the Champions League, Pulisic could be set for a second start under the new manager.
Having been effectively outcasted by Thomas Tuchel in the final weeks of his reign, a sign of the failing relationship between the pair that had been getting worse almost since the German first walked through the door. Pulisic hasn't been afforded the chance to shine yet under Potter.
The American started against Wolves in a rotated side that won 3-0 before a trip to San Siro. He scored in that game but also showed the inconsistency that has plagued his Chelsea career. Pulisic had largely been seen as a player waiting to get out of the club all summer, and that continued into this campaign too.
