Christian Pulisic arrived at AC Milan this summer with the prospect of being an important signing for the Rossoneri team's attack. However, despite the footballer's great start, where he scored two goals, the American player has had a very negative week in terms of performance. This makes some fans call for Nigerian Samuel Chukwueze to start, while the AC Milan coach believes it is a bad streak.

 

After this, the legend of French soccer, and connoisseur of the MLS, as well as European soccer, Thierry Henry, spoke about the soccer player in his Kicking It program, and confessed that he has a lot of room for improvement, despite the great talent of he. “As a creative player if you don't try to make mistakes, you cannot succeed. I can see on the national team, [Pulisic] feels like, 'I can make mistakes.' When you play on the big club [team], you play the ball one time and it's a mistake and the next time you touch it is 15 minutes later.

In turn, the UEFA Champions League-winning player with FC Barcelona believes that Pulisic should have more confidence in himself. This is because it is a necessary characteristic for players in his position. People remember every time you touch the ball that you lost it. The international team, he plays with that confidence. We were all creative players, so you have to score. So if you feel like in your head you can't lose that ball, then you might as well step out of the field and don't play.”

 

Will Pulisic play against Hellas Verona?

According to the Italian journalist, Daniele Longo, Christian Pulisic would start at the front of AC Milan's attack. The American soccer player will have the vote of confidence from Stefano Pioli and would accompany Rafael Leao and the novelty Noah Okafor in the attack of the Italian team. Milan had a bad week, after losing 5-1 to their bitter rival Inter Milan in the league and then drawing with Newcastle in the first round of the UEFA Champions League.
