Pulisic is the most important player at Milan and, perhaps, in Serie A: this fact leaves no room for interpretation
Clamoroso record di Pulisic in Serie A (ANSA) – MilanLive.it
If Christian Pulisic is on the field, the bar is raised. Always and in any case. Even yesterday, in Empoli, his entrance in the second half was decisive: he didn’t score but the American provided two assists, first to Leao and then to Gimenez, and this allowed him to reach an incredible record in Serie A. His numbers with the Milan jersey are truly sensational: it seemed difficult if not impossible, but he is managing to do even better than last season.
His first year in Italy with the Rossoneri had ended him with 15 goals and 11 assists: all that in 50 games between the league, Champions League, Coppa Italia and Europa League. Today, when we are at the beginning of February of the following season, he is already very close to those numbers with the prospect of surpassing them and even by a lot. In all, he has been out for a month due to injury. Whenever he plays he always leaves his mark: this is without any doubt one of the very few positive things about the post-Maldini and Massara management.
Nessuno come Pulisic da quando è arrivato in Italia
Pulisic arrived at AC Milan for about 20 million from Chelsea: it is not an intuition because we are talking about a player already known to everyone (also winner of a Champions League with the Blues) but there is merit in having believed in his talent when perhaps not everyone was yet convinced.

The American, with Croatian origins, as we have seen, did very well in his first year but this season he is going far beyond that and establishing himself as one of the best players in the world. Without any doubt, he is the best player in the Milan squad, the most important, even more than Leao and Theo Hernandez. Extremely high technical qualities in the service of an uncommon football intelligence: these are the elements that have allowed him, since his arrival in Italy, to reach an important record.
According to Sky Sport reports, with yesterday’s double assist Pulisic has reached 14 assists in Serie A since his arrival: no one has made more than him in the last year and a half. However, the former Chelsea man’s talent goes far beyond the numbers: his ability to always move into the right spaces, to read the movements and plays of his teammates, and to put himself at the service of the team with dirty work and sacrifice (this year in the non-possession phase we have also seen him play as a halfback) make him an absolute gem.
