I agree, good save. But a low PK halfway to the post wasn't great. Not high enough or not right enough or not center enough depending on what his intent was. I doubt that was the intended spot.

Regardless though, calm cool collected rebound finish though, which is something he's been great at since his days at Dortmund.

He's got size, speed and effort, but lacks polish (skill, precision, etc.). Dunno if it's too late for that at 19, but I suppose if he's willing to really put in the work, sky's the limit.

In other words, would LOVE to see CC move to Europe.

Better than relegated Leeds. 

That's my best attempt at optimism.

Time to give Pulisic the arm band full time, because you really need your captain to be playing with his club. 

Also, this could be the excuse to go to a Musah/McKennie double pivot behind Reyna playing the #10, leaving Tyler Adams to come in for Musah or McKennie to close out games.

Adams will play for Chelsea whether he starts or not, he will still start for the NT and he will still wear the arm band. He was playing too much last season for Leeds, anyway. 

Pulisic was struggling for time last season then he came in and kicked Mexico and Canada's asses in Nation's League.

The ceiling for TA at Chelsea is through the fucking roof. The floor is obviously concerning but let's only worry about crossing that bridge if we get to it.

I wonder why. Assume they do physicals as part of a transfer? Maybe something turned up no bueno.

Theory that I've seen that makes the most sense is that Brighton wants him and isn't going to sell Caicedo to Chelsea if they sign TA.

Adams to Brighton would be awesome!

TIL release causes expire.

Adams' expired yesterday so he's at Leeds for now.

Probably not a bad thing for both Tyler and Leeds - if he comes back from the hammy and plays well Leeds might get even more for him in the next window and Adams is guaranteed a lot of minutes. Just MHO.

Adams at Brighton would likely be better than at Leeds, unless the Leeds manager/coaching staff can find a way to improve his passing to advanced teammates looking to attack.

The Javier Mascherano career arc of skill improvement would be wonderful.

Lol that's as lateral as it gets. 

Leeds might be slightly better poised for promotion but I'm not seeing it this season.

Why would Arsenal sell him to Chelsea?

Better question is why the fuck would Balogun agree to terms with Chelsea. They already have a young phenom in Jackson.

Guess we'll see if the medical was the reason for Chelsea backing out. I'm guessing it had more to do with Caicedo. 

Narrarator: he was right
