WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Asked for a little thing that helps him feel confident on the pitch, Pulisic  replied: "I think a good haircut is underrated.  Sometime when you look good, you play good."</p><p>After failing to lob the car, the winger was challenged on the spot to come up with the Italian for 'little thing'.

WHAT CHRISTIAN PULISIC SAID

<p>Pulisic cut a relaxed figure in the video and has been enjoying life in Milan since joining the Rossoneri<em> </em>in a £17m ($22m) summer transfer from Chelsea. His form has seen him score five times in 12 Serie A appearances, already starting more league games than in his unhappy final season at Stamford Bridge.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Pulisic and Milan continue their pursuit of Serie A pace-setters Juventus and Inter this Saturday when they face a tricky trip to Bergamo to face Atalanta. Stefano Pioli's side will then turn their attention to their crucial final Champions League group stage game against Newcastle on December 13.</p>
