In the night between Saturday and Sunday Mauricio Pochettino he will make his debut as coach of the USA national team against Panama. In the usual press conference the day before, the Argentine coach found a way to talk about one of his players, a protagonist in Serie A: Christian Pulisic. Raising a controversy.
“He’s a great player,” he reports Mediaset a fantastic footballer, one of the best attacking talents in the world, who I believe will contribute now and in the future to take the team to the place we want. In Milan he is playing every single match, every single minute and this is an aspect that worries us. Sometimes we have to protect him, for tomorrow we’ll see why he arrived a little tired.
We need to build a great relationship with the club, and try to help Christian when we really need him. Must be fit, happy, strong. The quality is there because he has enormous talent, he is a fantastic player. We want to field eleven players who feel fresh and have the ability to compete at their best and not take risks, because this is another thing I wanted to tell you: we have no intention of taking risks with our players. We must also be responsible with the clubs. We must send them back in the same condition they arrived in.”
