Pulisic: Not always playing in the position you want to play ready for the national team

Chelsea player Pulisic was interviewed by NBC Sports today about his situation at Chelsea.

Pulisic said: "It's tough, I don't always play in the position I want, but I think it's a good thing to be a generalist, to be able to play in different positions, to have a different ability on the pitch. I've learned a lot and I'm ready to hopefully be able to be in a position that makes me feel comfortable in the next few games. ”

Asked about his recent form at Chelsea, Pulisic said: "It doesn't have much impact on me coming to team USA for training. When I came here, I was ready and did everything I could to help this team, so I didn't think about it and it's clear that things have been up and down this year, that's for sure. I didn't quite get to where I wanted to be, and that's not what I want right now. I just want to move on and when I get here, it won't affect me. So I'm glad to be here. "

Speaking about being constantly asked about Chelsea on the U.S. national team, Pulisic said: "I would say I have two sides, especially when people ask you how you are. There is a football side and a human side. The human side is more important to me, and I do a great job on this level. Sometimes I do get asked a lot of times. When I came to the national team, the questions were: 'What's going on at Chelsea', 'What is this', 'What is that'. It's hard. Psychologically, sometimes it affects me, but I'm excited to be on the national team, I enjoy playing with them, just enjoying football. ”

Tomorrow at 8:30 Beijing time, the United States will face El Salvador in the World Cup qualifiers.
