Captain America can be your hero

  • Chelsea v West Ham - Saturday 3pm kick-off

Getting ahead of the curve by spotting improving teams or underrated players is crucial for any winning punter. This is the first of my players to follow. He should be in your Fantasy team but also included in any weekend scorer bets.

And that man is Christian Pulisic. He should be in all of your weekend bets at around 7/2 for first scorer and 21/20 anytime.

Frank Lampard, Mason Mount and “Tap-in “ Tammy Abraham have gained all the plaudits as Chelsea have started the season in great form. They’ve played with style and endeavour and even in defeat at Man City last week they went down in a blaze of glory. One of the recent heroes, but mainly ignored by fans and the media is 21-year-old American international Pulisic.
