Pulisic on Premier League season: I think I'm really proud of how I pushed through things

Chelsea midfielder Christian Pulisic is pleased with his first season in the Premier League, Goal reported.

“I think I'm really proud of how I pushed through things and then I got my opportunity, and I felt I was playing very well recently, and I'm proud. It's been great. I've been enjoying it so much. You know, the football culture here is amazing, and I'm really happy, and I'm so excited to finish off the season strong.

I didn't expect to come here right away and have everything be perfect and come straight in and, you know, score 10 goals in my first game. I came in, and I wanted to do that right away -- of course, everyone does. But I came in, and it was realistic, and I wanted to continue to earn my position.

The beginning, it wasn't always easy, and I wasn't always in the line-up, but I just kept working. I put my head down, and I just kept telling myself, 'My time will come.' When you do that, and you just keep working, it does. I was really happy with kind of how things went.”

This season, he scored five goals and made two assists in 16 appearances.
