Christian Pulisic has claimed in an interview with The Guardian that there’s good things to come from Graham Potter at Chelsea.
The former Brighton man has had a mixed start to his life as manager at Stamford Bridge.
An impressive unbeaten run after joining the club has since been marred by a run of four defeats in five games.
While all of the losses have been to either the top three in the Premier League or the in-form Brighton, the manor of these losses have come as a concern to some Chelsea supporters.
Pulisic is a player who has been rarely handed a start by the new man in charge, leaving some speculation as to whether his future was still in West London.
Pulisic praises Potter
However, he has claimed that he remains confident that Potter will be successful with the Blues after the World Cup break.
He said: “He’s been good. He’s come in and the way he’s worked with the players and communicated with the players has impressed me the most. We had a great start with him.
“We’ve had some difficulties in recent weeks but I think he’s working through it and I think the guys have received him quite well. We’re excited. There’s going to be good things going forward.”
The winger will currently be solely focusing on representing the United States national team at the World Cup which is just a few days away from getting going.
He may have a chip on his shoulder for how things are currently going in the Premier League, although he will have the opportunity to prove all the doubters in this country wrong in his second group game.
USA will take on England in the second round of fixtures, and a good display in that game in particular could go a long way with Chelsea’s English manager.
