Since is scintillating display against Barcelona in Chelsea club friendly games roughly a week ago, Pulisic has been making the headline across Chelsea media channels. The America player who sign a contract with the North London club back in January worth £50m from Borussia Dortmund but went back on loan deal to the former club till the end of last season has really impressed the large fan Chelsea base and is being tipped to fill the void Chelsea legend Eden Hazard left at Chelsea.
The majority of the fans wants to see the player put on the number 10 jersey Hazard wore but the contention is that another Chelsea star player Willians is eying the same shirt number which is causing a conflict. Though Frank Lampard before the start of new league season will decide on that.
However the man who left the shirt to Real Madrid in a £150m transfer deal has beaded his mind about the young kid. When asked if Christian Pulisic can replicate his form at Chelsea, Hazard has this to say.
..
"He can be (a star). Now he's at one of the best clubs in the world. He's a proper player. He can play football. "He can be one of the best in the future for sure”
..
I quite agree with Hazard on this, we saw he performance at Dortmund, at just 20 year of age, he can develop his game and become one of the best wingers in football.
..
Pulisic has however pleaded with the Chelsea faithful not to compare him with the former legend and described him as wizard.
"I’m not here to compare or anything he said in an interview in Japan.
...
"He was an incredible player [for Chelsea]. "For me, it’s coming in as my own player, proven myself and doing the best I can to help this team."
...
Pulisic will have a lot of work to do if he must replicate the form Hazard left by next season and future but the most important thing is for him to place his game.
