"In his first eleven league games this season, the American found the back of the net eight times, but he now hasn't scored in his last eight. Hopefully, his improved physical condition means he can break the drought once and for all today against Cremonese."
"In the last month, Pulisic was always at Milanello even when his teammates had 24-48 hours off, working with the physios and medical staff to maximise the recovery. While some have suggested it, the No.11 certainly isn't thinking about being fit for the World Cup in this moment, solely focused on doing his best for Milan."
"Two uncharacteristic misses from close range against Fiorentina, a goal disallowed against Genoa for handball, and a 1v1 with the keeper (or rather, an open net) missed against Parma. In short, he knows himself that he can do even better."
Christian Pulisic has not scored since December 28 and is desperate to end his goal drought against Cremonese. After scoring eight goals in his first eleven league games this season, he has failed to find the net in his last eight matches. Pulisic has battled fever and iliopsoas bursitis during this two-month period without goals. Despite these challenges, he has maintained dedication by working with physios and medical staff at Milanello during rest days when teammates had time off. He has missed several clear chances recently, including close-range opportunities against Fiorentina and a one-on-one against Parma. Playing alongside Rafael Leao today, Pulisic aims for redemption and to fulfill his role as a key attacking player for Milan.
