Christian Pulisic Names The Best Player In The Premier League, It's Hard To Disagree

"But it’s hard to argue you with..."

​Christian Pulisic has named the best player in the Premier League this year and it's hard to disagree with his esteemed selection. 

​England's top flight is littered with some elite footballers; from Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne to Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes

Not to mention Mohamed Salah, who has been named the best player in the league this year by Pulisic. 

The Chelsea ace also gave props to his teammates Jorginho and N'Golo Kante before showering the Liverpool superstar with glowing praise. 


He told Amazon Prime: "I think if you’re looking at our team there’s been some incredible performances, you look at Jorginho and N’Golo [Kante].

"But it’s hard to argue you with [Mohamed] Salah and what he’s accomplished. He’s a top guy too."

Salah has been immense for Liverpool since returning to England in 2017.

He bagged an impressive 22 league goals last season and already has 15 league goals to his name this time around, as he enjoys yet another ultra-prolific campaign.

Pulisic also named Cristiano Ronaldo as his toughest opponent faced in the league. 

"It’s hard to argue against Cristiano Ronaldo but there’s a lot of top players," he added. "He’s one of the best to do it but there’s so many.​"

The USA international is in his third term at Stamford Bridge and has played 13 games in all competitions under Thomas Tuchel this season.

Speaking about his relationship with the German coach, he said: "It’s been great.

"I've obviously played with him [Tuchel] quite a lot, first at Dortmund and now here. He’s built a really strong team here so it’s great."
