DBasia.news – Chelsea captain, Cesar Azpilicueta, said he was sure Christian Pulisic would rise and be an important part of the Blues squad this season.
“As the manager said, we are a group, we are all important in this long road, and we are only in October. Sometimes managers have to make decisions, but I see Pulisic working hard in training,” Azpilicueta said.
Pulisic has difficulty adapting to the style of English football. As a result, Chelsea manager Frank Lampard began to override the player from his squad.
Even though the minutes of playing became minimal, Pulisic turned out to still get support from Azpilicueta.
“What I can say is to encourage Pulisic to continue working, because we know this is a new country, a new team, and less time is needed for adaptation. I saw his character, worked hard in training, and I am sure he will be very important for us for this season,” said Azpilicueta.
