“I didn’t take it as serious I think I should Have. It was one of those you felt you could do a lot of things but you try to push it that one extra step and realise it’s not yet,” Pulisic told Chelsea’s website
“It was very tough and frustrating going through time like that. I underestimated it and tried to get back as soon as I could because I just wanted to play so bad.” Christian Pulisic added.
“If anything, I’ve given myself a little more time to rest now and make sure I’m 100 percent fit. I’d say I’m fully recovered and ready to go as soon as we get back.”
