Can we trade Iwobi for Pulisic?

Post by bushboy »

Every single time I watch Pulisic play, I see in him all the traits I wish Iwobi has. Direct. Skillful. Clinical.
Bushboy's bushmen : 1.Isaac Success 2. Terem Moffi 3. Victor Boniface 4. Samuel Omorodion. 5. Samson Tijani. 6. Rafiu Durosinmi.

wrong position

you should be comparing Pulisic to Chukwueze.

and tbh Pulisic is far better than Chukwueze, produces far more goals and assists and isn't even a gauranteed starter. He has done all this in his first season at Chelsea, while Chukwueze has regressed despite being with the team for 2 years.

If I am honest Chuks needs to up his game and be the player that we all know he can be. I expect much more from him.

Iwobi plays on the wing for Everton. Its the same position.

Pulisic can play either on the wings or as an AM like Iwobi. I would gladly take Pulisic over Iwobi. Pulisic's career is on the rise. He was one of the best players in the EPL after the restart. While Iwobi went missing in several games for Everton last season. Iwobi has potential, but he just doesn't stamp his authority on games when playing for Everton. He seems much more confident playing for club than country.

In my view, Pulisic suffers from American syndrome. There are those who believe that if he was an European citizen he would have seen far more minutes than he currently sees. He is a whale of talent but the American pedigree weighs him down in a game littered with geographical beliefs. I wrote it :lol:

Iwobi has been solid for the eagles and has scored vital goals for us. Have you forgotten? It just at Everton that something is wrong! Even at Arsenal he was good.

I mentioned the same and one Mr Ogi kept throwing abuses my way. Iwobi is way more expressive in a GWG jersey

I will say it again, the closest player we have you can compare to Pulisic is Chukwueze, not Iwobi. This comparison is stupid.

As soon as we get Pulisic we'll be looking to trade him for someone else.

But...Wasn't exactly the point of the post....Bros just trying to say he wished Iwobi was as skillful, direct and clinical as Pulisic.


If America would rather take Kalu Uche for Pulisic, we go give them...We won't argue with them that Chukwueze is a more direct replacement.
