EPL: Christian Pulisic sends message to Graham Potter ahead Crystal Palace clash

US winger, Christian Pulisic has insisted he is ready to ‘prove himself’ under new Chelsea manager, Graham Potter.

Pulisic struggled under Thomas Tuchel and slammed the German for not giving him the needed opportunity during his reign.

The US International, who was happy with the appointment of Potter, says he is now ‘excited’ to challenge for a place in Chelsea XI.

“I’m feeling good going back, honestly,” Pulisic told ESPN.

“I have a fresh start now, and I’m excited to play for the new manager. So I’m really just looking forward to it.

“I just have to prove myself, as everyone does, and as I’ve done before.”

Graham Potter will be in charge of his second game as Chelsea boss and first Premier League game when the Blues tackle Crystal Palace on Saturday.
