“Roman can relate” “He’s Overrated”, “Hope he’s leaving” – Fans wants ‘wasted’ Chelsea star out of club after his poor display in 1-1 draw against Newcastle
Chelsea fans slammed attacker Christian Pulisic for his poor performance after coming on as a substitute against Newcastle United on Sunday, May 28. The Blues were held to a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge in their final game of the season in the Premier League.
Anthony Gordon gave the Magpies the lead in the ninth minute before an own goal from Kieran Trippier restored parity in the 27th minute. While both teams created multiple chances, neither managed to score the winning goal.
The Blues end a dismal campaign in 12th place with their worst-ever points tally (44). Newcastle, meanwhile, remarkably finished fourth and will play in the UEFA Champions League next season.
Pulisic came on as an 88th-minute substitute for Noni Madueke. The American, though, failed to convince fans and was met with jeers when he came on. While he didn’t have much time to impress, his cameo was also not good as he missed one big chance.
Some Chelsea fans online are now suggesting they want to see the former Borussia Dortmund player leave in the summer.
One fan wrote on Twitter:
“A microcosm of Pulisic’s entire career there. Overrated, unreliable, not good enough.”
Another claimed:
“Pulisic its time to say goodbye!”
Pulisic has made only 29 appearances across competitions this season, scoring one goal and providing two assists.
His time at the club, however, could be up. Chelsea fans weren’t happy with his display against Newcastle and here are some of their Twitter reactions:
@TheChelseaWay: A microcosm of Pulisic’s entire career there. Overrated, unreliable, not good enough.
@CFCMick11: Pulisic is so ass
@DhruvrCFC: Unpopular Opinion.
Christian Pulisic was never that guy.
His time is up at this club, sell him and give that iconic No 10 jersey to someone else.
@lenardvanastrea: It gets really hard to defend pulisic. He’s actually so mid
@richyropo: Pulisic its time to say goodby
@Tunnykvng: Hope Pulisic is leaving this summer?
@UberChelseaFC_: Madueke given a standing ovation when coming off.
Pulisic booed onto the pitch.
Sums it all up.
@Blueslove: Roman can relate
