"Very strong team" - Christian Pulisic sends AC Milan warning as Chelsea eye double Champions League win

Christian Pulisic has issued AC Milan of "very strong" Chelsea side ahead of Chelsea's crucial Champions League clash.

The American is looking to impress under new head coach Graham Potter and did a good job against Wolves in the Premier League.

He fell out of favour under the management of Thomas Tuchel, but after a bright cameo against Crystal Palace he was handed a start against the midlands side.

In the first half he struggled to make the most of some big opportunities, but it was still a positive half from the 24-year-old.

He scored a well deserved goal in the second 45, guiding his strike past the on-rushing Jose Sa to give the Blues a 2-0 lead.

The performance was one that pleased Pulisic and following the game he shared his post-match thoughts.

He said: "It was very nice! I wasn't sure Mason would get that pass through but he slipped it through. It was a tough so it was a nice finish and I'm really happy to get that goal.

"We started really strong and controlled a lot of the game, they put up a fight at the start of the second half and I though it was difficult, we defended really well which we are happy with"

Christian continued: "It's another clean sheet and a great result. We look really strong in attack but also a couple of clean sheets are really important for us.

"I like the way the team is working at the moment, and it's just about finding some consistency and keeping going."

The west London side are certainly on a better run of form than they started the season with.

Since the arrival of Potter, the Blues are unbeaten in four games, picking up three wins in that time.

Their toughest fixture came against AC Milan, but they cruised to a 3-0 victory against the Rossoneri.

With the reverse game in the Champions League on Tuesday night, another good result would put Chelsea in a good spot in Group E.

Speaking to the official Chelsea website, Pulisic has sent the Italian giants a warning: "We have a very strong team and amazing depth, guys that can come in and do a great job.

"We have players that work hard and push each other in training every day. That can only help the team and I think you saw that against Wolves."

Plenty of players were rested for the clash against Wolves but Pulisic put in a classy performance.

It remains to be seen as to whether he will feature against AC Milan, but his display will not have done his chances any harm.
