Man Utd have made a huge decision regarding Antony and Cody Gakpo which will affect the future of the disgruntled Christian Pulisic amid Chelsea frustration.
The USMNT international, who has been linked to the Red Devils recently, was introduced to the fray at Elland Road in the 64th minute to try and inject some much-needed emphasis into the faltering Blues attack. "Showed some drive to try and create something from the centre of the pitch but was unable to do so. 6," his football.london player rating read.
Post-match, all the talk with Pulisic centred around what his Dad did on social media. Amid certain section of the supporters being frustrated at his non-inclusion from the start, Mark Pulisic went on a liking spree of agreeing with these comments and therefore hinting at his frustration with his son's current Blues status. Can he really afford to be a big-part player ahead of the World Cup?

No is the simple answer and USMNT manager Greg Berhalter was the main behind convincing the boyhood United fan that a move to Old Trafford could really be beneficial for his development despite their own current predicament with the Glazers and fan unrest.
The Glazer family have reacted by signing Casemiro and more is expected to arrive through the doors before the September 1 deadline. Dutch outlet De Telegraaf have reported that United's focus in the attacking positions is on securing Antony, who is currently on strike at Ajax and Eredivisie compatriot Gakpo.
This would mean that Pulisic, if no other move can be sought out, will be staying in West London which could hamper his own World Cup ambitions if Thomas Tuchel weren't to start giving the 23-year-old a more fair crack of the whip.
Florian Plettenburg of Sky Germany confirmed this with his tweet: 'News Pulisic: Been told that its likely that he will stay at CFC. No swap deals planned at this stage. No offer from MUFC on the table. They go for Antony.'
