    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Pulisic has been on fire in Serie A this season, totalling a G+A of 10 in the league, and leading the Rossoneri to yet another victory on Saturday. He has become of the instant penciled-in names on the teamsheet for manager Stefano Pioli this campaign, lighting up the San Siro, as well as stadiums across Italy and Europe. In the Champions League, he started five of six games in the group stage, scoring once to help them reach the Europa League from the dreaded Group of Death.
