Ok call it a month then

Tell me what you think, once you watched it. It starts slow and very British-y, but it gets better as it progresses. There's also a Lithuanian actor in it, who plays a cool role: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4538500/

I think @Cicero has said before (and I've seen this said by lots of Chelsea fans elsewhere on the internet tbh) that Pulisic is most likely more of a long term replacement for Willian/Pedro. I think given his stats last season and comparing them to Hazard's, expecting him to pick up that same sort of contribution is unlikely. But I think that he'll have a better season than his last year at Dortmund - and because Hazard is gone and because he was so important to how they played... those goals will have to be replaced and my guess is they'll probably be spread around the team more. So no one player will really be replacing Hazard, it'll take a team effort to come close to replacing him. If Chelsea play well, I suspect Pulisic will get his share of replacing Hazard's contribution - but I suspect that it'll be spread out amongst the other Chelsea attackers as well.

I sadly only managed to catch a few glimpses this year as I had a busy weekend so missed most of it except the official presentation of the new Porsche 911 RSR for the next season... And of course the Beast of Turin never fails to disappoint!

Where is he? Can't see him.

He's a moderately talented young striker who gets a free pass because he's got a Mancunian accent and isn't a twat like Lingard and Pogba. This is a bloke who is frequently outscored by the likes of Josh King. Sorry, I'm not having him yet, and I don't think giving him money like that is going to help him either. The wage structure at Man Utd is so fucked that I agree they were only ever going to have to be able to pay Rashford well over what he should be on. I've really never gotten the fuss with him. I think so many have fallen for the facade on this one.
