Pulisic under fire for slamming Tuchel
Former Liverpool midfielder, Don Hutchison, has fired at Chelsea winger and America international Christian Pulisic over some statement he made about former Blues manager Thomas Tuchel.
Pulisic had in a statement criticised Tuchel, who was replaced by Graham Potter, for the way he treated him at Stamford Bridge.
Writing in his new book ‘Pulisic: My Journey So Far’, the Blues winger said that the German manager had guaranteed him a sport in the club’s starting squad for the second leg against Real Madrid.
Pulisic added that he was surprised when Tuchel said Kai Havertz was starting over him.
Reacting, Hutchison slammed Pulisic over his claims as he described the American winger as being naive and babyish.
Hutchison said on ESPN FC’s YouTube channel: “Oh, my days! I mean, it is ridiculously naive of Christian Pulisic. Alright, it is his book, so he feels as though he’s got his little say against Thomas Tuchel, but is he not naive enough to think that Thomas Tuchel won’t be happy and he’ll be having words with other managers?
“Managers change their minds. What happens to you? You are a little bit gutted, you are a little bit upset. But it all just sounds a little bit babyish to me. Christian Pulisic having a whinge. What is the point? What does he gain from it?”
