Christian Pulisic is running out of time and opportunities to make a mark at Chelsea before an expected departure at the end of the season.
Pulisic was named on the substitute's bench for the Blues' game at Manchester City on Sunday. It was the fourth time in five games Pulisic began a game on the bench with his most recent outing for Frank Lampard's side coming in the 2-1 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion on April 15.
It is remarkable Pulisic has not played a single minute in over a month for the Blues but he has struggled with injury and form this season, the reasons behind his lack of playing time recently. Mauricio Pochettino, widely expected to be the next Chelsea manager, will be watching the Man City game with a keen eye and see the Pulisic snub as a clear warning that the player could be on his way out.
