Part of me 'never wanted him'...cocked and loaded cheap shots at the American would irritate. Most of me would love him here. Would be great so see his progress week in week out. When I see BVB's 2nd goal and I consider the plodding MF we are likely to have I take a rather more Panglossian perspective on missing out on him.

New word of the day toilet paper.

I don’t.

You must be his agent talking him up like that .

If Dortmund sells him right, fields offers from a variety of clubs, etc., I think competition will be such that he gets £100. Unless Pulisic says he only wants Chelsea, it something like that.

£65m sounds cheap to me in this market.

Fair enough.

Unfortunately I doubt £65m sounds cheap to Mr Levy . Now if it was half that or a quarter he would certainly be interested in low balling at £10m less than required to conclude a deal swiftly and decisively.

Yep. It’s too expensive for us, the poorest team in the league by the looks of things.

Pulisic would pay for himself with his us market value. Will be a shame to lose out to Chelsea. Potential to reach Eriksen level, decent Hazard replacement for them.
Zaha will give us his peak years, but hardly improve and unlikely to give any resale value. Pulisic is the one that make financial sense

Zaha can still improve alot, maybe not as much or to the same level as Pulisic.

Very one sided opinion where one player will improve drastically and make money on resale where as the other won't get better and not make money.... Where as both could improve (and both should be able to improve with us) and both will have values that go up with that. The only decision really is who will have the higher celling for ability.

Of all the attacking options we've been linked with, this one excites me the most.

Come on Danny get it done if he really is available and bring Sancho with him too. :)

A hopeful toss of my hate into the "deja vu" ring. The best American player being added on deadline day, a la Dempsey?

I know I know. Sorry for bumping the thread :D

In transfer news on sky this morning it said he was staying at Dortmund. Think the source was the express though!

I wouldn't listen to a word they say on that. Most of them can't pronounce the players names let alone string a sentence together.

Though actually on looking, their report is just rehashing something on ESPN:

"But according to ESPN FC, Dortmund have received no formal bids for Pulisic and expect him to remain with the club for the coming season."

So it's nothing really. Regardless, this one seems to be dying off, all the talk is now around Zaha/Martial.
