Tielemans was in CL at age 16.
Pulisic has already provided more CL goals and assists than Tielemans has.

As an 18 year old, Tielmans played for Anderlecht in CL and they got knocked out in the group stage. They got knocked out of EL in the round of 32 and finished 3rd in Belgium. He went goalless in 8 European matches that year. Still waiting for you to make a valid case for him
Yeah because their is no difference between a box to box cm and a winger im terms of goals.
I guess you cant use any 18 year old defender or gk because they dont score either.

I can name multiple off the top of my head.
Messi,ronaldo,rooney,dybala,kane,
Martial,alli,tielemans,depay,sterlings all had more potential and on a higher trajectory at 18 than Christian Pulisic. CP can be a great player but to say no 18 year old had a for sure better path is utterly ridiculous. Good god.
I'm sure this has been hit on, but it's another completely ignorant Rickdaddy post about soccer.

so it's your stance that CP is better than Youri? OK bruh. Again, where are all these articles claiming CP is on this unheard of path at age 18. If you anonymous posters on a message board can easily see this then surely all the people paid to evaluate soccer players can see it.

My stance is that at 18, Pulisic is on a better path than Your I. Again let me know when Tielemans decides to take his career seriously and he leaves Belgium.

Wait, you think CP at 18 was on a better path than Rooney at 18?
Holy shite. Ok bruh.
Its become clear to me that all these anonymous posters on here are actually writers for a soccer publication. Where are all these articles saying CP is on an unheard of path? Where are all these articles claiming CP can be one of the 10 best players in the world?

Pulisic plays all over for Dortmund and has 3 assists in 8 CL appearances this year in addition to the goal against Benfica that put Dortmund ahead. How about Tielemans?
Who was he keeping on the bench at Anderlecht? World Cup final goal scorer Mario Gotze or World Cup final assist man Andre Schulle? No? You're being dense as hell. That's a 24 and 26 year old that start for the German national team and have played at the highest levels in club football and Pulisic at 18 is favored over both

Im being dense because I said its utter bullshite to say there aren't 10 players ever on a better path at age 18 than CP?
I've repeatedly said he is a great player and has unbelievable touch. But it's ignorant as frick to say no 10 players have ever been on a better path at age 18 than CP.
Of course some i listed are wrong or questionable. I freely admit that. My point still stands. There are dozens of players on a betterpath at age 18 than CP. Are you really saying in the history of soccer there haven't been 10 players on a better path at age 18 than CP?

Literally no one in this thread has said that, you've built that straw man and convinced yourself it was said. Go back and read the thread.

Another straw man

God damn son. 3?
It was asked if he could be a top 10 player in the world. List your top 10 players in the world and show that they were all better at 18 than Pulisic. Or better yet, don't waste your time because you can't do that. The current top 10 attackers in the world did not all show the same potential at 18 as Pulisic, nor were they all further along, hence it is definitely possible that he can reach that level one day.

No one in this thread has claimed that there have never been ten players with a better trajectory at 18 than Pulisic. No one. We are talking about current world class players. Who the frick are you even arguing at this point?

How was the Brazilian Ronaldo on a better path at 18? He had just signed for PSV. At this point, your list is down to Messi and Cristiano. I'm ok with that.
