Christian Pulisic says that games would be better for fans if VAR (video assistant referee) was no longer part of the game. The Pulisic VAR opinion came as a surprise to most fans who consider VAR a positive addition.
Pulisic shared this take on Tim Ream’s podcast “The American Dream.”
Christian Pulisic had one of his best performances yet in an AC Milan shirt on Saturday scoring in the Rossoneri’s 2-0 victory against Lazio. The Pulisic goal vs Lazio was a powerful strike on the half volley.
The first half was relatively quiet for Pulisic and Milan as Lazio sat deep and chances were few and far between. The second half saw the game come to life and culminated in Rafael Leão finding Pulisic for the opening goal in the 60th minute.
Christian Pulisic got an assist and helped set up another goal during AC Milan’s 3-1 victory vs. Cagliari in Serie A action on Wednesday. The Pulisic assist vs Cagliari is his first in a Milan shirt.
Wednesday’s game looked better for Pulisic after a string of so-so performances. Milan manager Stefano Pioli rotated his players and shifted Pulisic from the right wing to the left wing as Rafael Leão and Olivier Giroud were rested.
Here was the moment in the 60th minute when Pulisic set up Ruben Loftus-Cheek for a long-range goal to make it 3-1.
United States men’s national team fans might have felt discouraged on Tuesday to see the Christian Pulisic benched news. For the first time this season Pulisic wasn’t in AC Milan’s starting XI as the club hosted Newcastle to a 0-0 draw in their UEFA Champions League opener.
Nigerian forward Samuel Chukwueze started in Pulisic’s usual place on the right wing for his first start with the club. Chukwueze arrived from Villarreal in the summer.
Weston McKennie made his 100th appearance for Juventus on Saturday during the club’s 3-1 victory vs. Lazio. He was involved in all three of Juve’s goals and provided a beauty of an assist on the third.
The American midfielder was coming off fantastic performances for the United States men’s national team and kept that form going.
Tim Howard reignited the fiery disagreements between Chelsea fans and United States men’s national team supporters over Christian Pulisic’s skill when he spoke on Taylor Twellman’s podcast, “Offside”.
Howard argued that Pulisic was at a disadvantage being an American player in the Premier League and if he were European, he would likely still be playing for Chelsea.

United States men’s national team defender Tim Ream found the back of the net for Fulham on Saturday vs. Manchester City. The unlikely hero for the Cottagers did so on a corner kick in exquisite fashion to level the game at 1-1.
Let’s set the scene.
Just two minutes prior to Ream’s goal, Erling Haaland had teed up Julián Álvarez for the game’s opening goal. The Etihad Stadium was rocking as their side took the lead.
LONDON — Nottingham Forest substitute Anthony Elanga struck early in the second half to earn a 1-0 win at toothless Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday.
The 21-year-old Swede kept his cool to push the ball neatly past goalkeeper Robert Sanchez in the 48th minute after being put through by Taiwo Awoniyi following a Chelsea mix-up in midfield.
Anthony Elanga runs right by Chelsea's defense and scores for Forest!
A fantastic save denied Christian Pulisic his third goal of the season as AC Milan defeated Roma 2-1 in Serie A on Friday. The USMNT star played 75 minutes in the Italian capital in a relatively quiet night compared to his first two games.
Pulisic’s best chance of the game came in the 22nd minute. The American winger made a great run to get by his defender and get on the end of a beautiful cross from Theo Hernández.
