Christian Pulisic told how he can revive Chelsea career with key World Cup role against England

Former USMNT international Eddie Lewis has claimed that Christian Pulisic could play his way back into the Chelsea team with his performances at the World Cup. The 24-year-old has struggled to cement his place in the first-team since making the switch to West London.

It's that difficulty which has led towards a potential exit, with plenty of links circulating a switch back in the summer window as well as in the future. Though under new boss Graham Potter he could be handed a new lease of life as the manager revealed his plans for Pulisic on the left of the attack.

“It’s understandable [he was nervous]," The head coach said after victory over Wolves last month. "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.”
