Last year, Christian Pulisic took America by storm, now, he is coming for the world.
Pulisic started his 2017-18 campaign off with a bang, scoring one goal and assisting another in Borussia Dortmund’s win versus Wolfsburg.
However, that game was just the beginning of what is to come. In a bigger role this season, Pulisic is destined to thrive and become a worldwide sensation and here’s why. Firstly, with Ousmane Dembele on the brink of a move to FC Barcelona, this is only good news for Pulisic. It means the winger position is all his with no one to worry about. With his spot solidified in the team, Dortmund has already reaped the benefits. We saw a very confident Pulisic dictate the game with his play on the wing. He was energetic, creative, and influential. When the game needed a big play, Dortmund looked to him and he made it.
This is just the beginning for Christian Pulisic. Being the main creator for Dortmund, Pulisic is going to see a lot of production. Much like Dembele (22 goals and 6 assists in one season) and Henrikh Mkhitaryan (11 goals and 15 assists in one season), Pulisic will look to not only create for the team, but score like these two have done for Dortmund in the similar role. You can say Pulisic is going to be the architect for Dortmund this season, a role very well suited for him. He will be very productive in this role and lead Dortmund this year.
Pulisic will thrive in this position and show the world he has what it takes to become a world class player. After this season, Pulisic will finally be recognized with the likes of Dembele, Kylian Mbappe, and Marco Asensio as the future of soccer.
As for the United States, this is exactly how you want to see the face of your team play. You want your young star playing confident and punishing the competition. Pulisic is the perfect player to lean on as he has everything it takes to lead a team and this country for that matter.
We are on the verge of seeing an American become one of the best talents in the world. Age aside, Pulisic is going to be one of the best players in the Bundesliga this season. He is legit and ready to conquer the world.
