Chelsea’s only signing heading into this season, Christian Pulisic seems to have had enough with the treatment he is getting under coach Frank Lampard and he is not hiding his feelings. Lampard-Pulisic “Yeah, of course, it is very frustrating, but I will continue to work my hardest because I want to play,” Pulisic told Pro Soccer Talk after missing out on Chelsea’s 2-0 home win over Brighton on Saturday.

The American joined Chelsea from Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund for £57.6m after catching the eyes of the London side, helping the German side to a second-place finish in the process. Chelsea’s next game is an away Champions League tie against Lille on Wednesday. VANGUARD
