Yes.

I'm not saying Pulisic will be better, but how can you say he's not on a better path?

Youre bias is showing.

the age of 16, most kids are preparing to take their GCSEs and starting their A-levels. Even university seems a long way off. Then there are those who are making their Champions League debut.
Meet Youri Tielemans, the RSC Anderlecht player who in 2013 became the youngest Belgian to ever appear in Europe’s premier football competition aged 16 years and 148 days.
Having turned 18 just two weeks ago, he has already made an astonishing 83 first team appearances. For comparison, at that age Cristiano Ronaldo had made fewer than 30.

So playing regularly in Belgium is better than breaking into the starting XI for the second best team in Germany?



Wake me up when Tielemans challenges himself.

I'm just gonna bow out because it's clear im not getting any unbiased discussion about no 10 players being on a better path ,at 18, than CP.

CP is a great player and I'll enjoy watching him play and score for the next 12-15 years. He does things you cant teach so I have no doubt he will make us Americans proud.

For the best tbh. You're embarrassing yourself.

I said it stupid to say CP has a better trajectory at 18 than any player ever.

No one has said this. I don't know where you are pulling this from. You said he didn't have potential to be a top ten player, which set off this argument. If anything, people are arguing that he has the potential to be a top ten player one day and that his career trajectory is on par or better than most of the world class players you assumed were doing as well as Pulisic at this stage of their careers. However, you were proven wrong but for some unknown reason refuse to back down.

Yeah im embarrassing myself by saying there have been 10 players on a better path by 18 than CP. Only a dumbass or someone biased would say or cosign that. Congrats youre either soccer ignorant or biased.

You really are, though. As a blanket statement saying that there are 10 players who were on a better trajectory than Pulisic isn't wrong. I'm sure one could argue that. However in this thread you gave the names of several players who objectively were not as good at this age as Pulisic. Another poster provided facts, which you ignored I guess, which countered the points you were making about those specific players. Pick some better examples next time and you won't have such a bad time. Also learning to appear intelligent with basic proof reading of your posts will help others on this board to not assume you're an idiot.

Do you only look at league tables? Dortmund finished ahead of Real Madrid in their champions league group. They are one of two teams from Germany in the quarterfinals of the champions league.

Wait you take goals and assist as the only measuring stick of players being on a better path at 18? Sure I made some questionable choices but I atleast named 7 players that were easily on a better path at 18 than CP. Are you under the ignorant assumption that CP was a on a better path at 18 than Ronaldo bevause he had more goals? ignorant

Please explain how Harry Kane was on a better path at 18 than Pulisic.

No. One makes the champions League and the other doesnt. Bundesliga is garbage outside of Bayern.

I said i was wrong on some. Kane was one of them.

My only point was there have easily been 10 players on a better path at 18 than CP. Are you saying there hasn't been?
