I disagree with the common narrative that attacking players are more skilled. I’ve played world football my whole life, I’ve seen no indication that you need more skill to score than to stop the people who are trying to score. Also, what exactly is world-class? Like can someone actually define it genuinely? Not saying I want to put anybody in that category, it’s just that I’ve never heard it defined.
There is no definite meaning of "World Class" it's a term used interchangeably with words like "elite, generational, legend". It's subjective after a certain point that beckons massive and long debates and arguments.
I said this on other vids discussing this topic. As a European who goes to La Liga games and even Porto games, Pulisic is an above average winger. The type of player that can make most squads in Europe. One thing I noticed this season watching him in Italy opposed to his time at Chelsea, he is actually looking for his shot more instead of just looking to create for others
Disagree with you about the Tiger celly Tac 😂😂 also 50/50 on the whole goal scorer vs defense take. Agree with you that he is the best in CONCACAF right now. Checked my biases at the door
I still remember back in 2019 , a famous Mexican reporter from fox and Chaco Gimenez made fun of Pulisic , calling him a scam . Saying that at that time Antuna , Lainez were far better than Pulisic . I guess you guys were wrong. Specially you Chaco . At 23 your son can not even get a transfer . At 23 Pulisic was champion of Europe
My top 5 players in concacaf right now for me is: pulisic, Alphonso davies and Leon Bailey, Edison alverez and Robinson(jedi). Each are interchangeable to me.
@@pikamewistaken Bailey, Alvarez, and Robison over Jonathan David? This is tbe example of a clown take if you ever needed one. Top 3 cocncacaf players, no contest (NO ORDER): Christian Pulisic Alphonso Davies Jonathan David
Can we stop saying he's a big game player and using the Liverpool game as an example. He scored on a mistake, he made a phenomenal play don't get me wrong, but he was pretty poor the rest of the match tbh. Have a few mistakes that could have lead to goals.
Pulisic is American and because of that he will ALWAYS be second guessed along with his stats being ignored. Look at some of the idiots in this very comment section lol. Bro basically leads series A in goal contributions going back to last year and Canadians will say hes mid lmao
Hard for me to argue with this list. I don't think I'd make any changes to it, nor to your comments about the couple of players just outside the top-5. One observation that really stands out to me. CONCACAF is particularly lacking in quality CBs and creative midfielders (in the traditional sense of a #10, not wide players like Pulisic/Bailey). CONCACAF has also traditionally had a few high quality GKs that would likely make a top-5 list (many in the history of the USMNT, but also GKs like Navas and Ochoa). But, that seems to be a current soft spot on many CONCACAF rosters. Pretty interesting to see how things ebb and flow among the teams collectively.
how is david better? Please explain, pulisic has produced more unexpected results for a better team. How on earth do you justify david being better? Go ahead
Your take is crazy. 4 good games with Milan? There's only 6 games going back to last year that he didn't make a goal contribution. 6. And he didnt get one last match because Reijnders missed an easy assist. Please know what you are talking about before speaking, 🤡
So Alphonso Davies is considered world class, but 3rd on CONCACAF. Then you have Christian Pulisic who is the best player in CONCACAF, but isn't considered world class? I got a big headache thinking about it, lol.
I hope you eat your words and apologize to Jamaica when the Reggae Boyz will beat the USMT in the upcoming CONCACAF Nations League. This is not the old Jamaica team and organization. They had new elections for the JFF and the establishment returned to power. Second, they have a new coach in Steve McClaren , a former England National Coach who has not lost a game coaching Jamaica so far.
Def one of. He is on fire now. Is he the best when he plays in CONCACAF? One of for sure. With Mason Greenwood incoming, he'll prolly take a backseat to him as well though.
@ commenting on this post after David has scored a brace against atletico, scored against Juventus and real in the champions league just strengthens my point
According to you, Pulisic isn't a top 25 player in the world, (which I agree) how about a top 25 winger in the world? People say Lao is a top winger in the world and Pulisic is on par with him over the last 2 seasons. Curious what 25 wingers you thing are better that Pulisic right now. (Idea for a future video?) lol
I don’t want to hear any Douglas Luis fans say he’s better than Weston because that’s a Maury lie!! Weston is 5 steps ahead of Luiz. I do t want to hear that Luiz debate, straight nonsense
@@jukegonzalez4608 club performance? I know he plays the vast majority of matches but I've seen west ham bench edson because he's horrible with the ball- they signed guido rodriguez on a FREE transfer for a reason . Mckennie has produced more results for a much better team(juventus) and is a starter there.
LoL! The U.S. bias is truly laughable. At the end of last season, not even one of the biased U.S. podcasters would have said that Pulisic was the best player in CONCACAF. It's very funny, from a Canadian perspective, to watch the sudden turnaround of opinions, because Pulisic has gotten off to a good start this season. Come on, he was shakey at best for the past 2 seasons. This year, he was borderline terrible in the Copa & in the recent match vs Canada. The reason that Alphonso Davies' market value went down, was because of politics. It is probably the reason that he sat out for a game too. He refused to sign again with Bayern Munich & the team has been bitter & publicly knocking him to discourage teams like Real Madrid from constantly pursuing him, as they have been doing for 2 years now. I will admit, that he probably did have a slight drop off last season, due to all of that pressure. This season, the new Bayern coach has been complimenting Davies' excellent play. Tact, your bias against defenders is showing too. Davies was outstanding defensively in the Copa & in the recent matches versus the U.S. & Mexico. He shut down most of the offensive stars that tried to go down his side of the pitch, which was huge! He is still one of the fastest 3 players in the world. Canada had one of the best defensive records in the Copa & the young captain was one of the main reasons that they did & it is also one of the reasons that you are dead wrong when you said that Canada was lucky in the Copa. They deserved full marks for making it to the semifinals & their B team outplayed Uruguay in that match; but they unfortunately lost in penalties. Tact, it really sounds like sour grapes when you make glib comments like that. Canada once again proved their value, when they absolutely dominated the U.S. for most of that last match. Jonathan David has been much more consistent than Pulisic over the past 2 seasons as he scored 24 goals in 37 matches in 2021/2022 & 19 goals in 34 matches last season. He has 5 goals in 6 matches so far this season. Not only that but he has been clutch too. Plus he is an excellent defensive forward too! He has also played very well for Canada & has been involved in most of their most important goals. He is the co-leader for all time goals for the Canadian national team. Like Alphonso, there are many teams in pursuit of Jonathan David & he will become a free agent after this season & land with one of the top teams. So, if we want to get back to reality & stop the recency bias, Alphonso Davies @ 23 years of age, is still #1; Jonathan David, at 24, is a clear consistent #2 & Pulisic, who is 26 years old, is #3.
No one is reading all of this lmao. Just know, Pulisic has the most goal contributions out of ANY Serie A player since he joined that league. Better than scoring penalty goals in a league that is barely top 5 in Europe
@@Fredito8486yeah, the Canadian has no clue what he is talking about. Puli has been balling but he's American so he will NEVER get full praise, unfortunately
Personal pre-watch top 3 list: 1- Christian Pulisic, 2- Alphonso Davies 3- Jonathan David Just my ignorant perspective from someone who doesn’t watch much Bundesliga outside of Bayern and doesn’t watch much Ligue 1 at all.
1. Pulisic 2. Davies 3. Weston 4. Jedi 5. David That’s my opinion. David is only 5th because the league he plays in. Love Ligue 1, but Jedi and Weston above him. Weston and Jedi been cooking for years now. They been consistent

Absolutely
@@itstyypical3908 Leao did it too

Ofc tac there really isn’t anyone else
Yes at the moment
To be honest
From last season
Where do you rank Pulisic amongst wingers?
Hot take lockdown Puli is better than Milan Puli. Played in the prem, won a trophy and scored against big teams.
The only thing cringe about the tiger celebration is that he’s still dabbing in 2024 😬
So the question is who is the tallest dwarf?
Pulisic is the deff top 15- 20 winger in the world rn
What would we say the concacaf best XI would be as of nowV?
Raul Jimenez > Santi
As a USMNT player I agree and believe Edson is the best CDM in CONCACAF
