Pulisic has struggled since joining the London giants in 2019 and is being linked with a move to Leeds United in January. However, recently, Wynalda said that a move to St. James' Park would work better for his compatriot. "I think if he ends up making a move in January, after the World Cup, I am starting to lean more and more towards the direction of Newcastle" said Wynalda. He added: “Things that I am hearing about the money they are going to splash is interesting. I don’t think Leeds, for example, would be a good spot for him. That’s not a team that is going to score a ton of goals. He’s going to be on the end of a lot of quality if he stays at Chelsea; he’s just not going to get the minutes that would equate to big numbers.” Pulisic has appeared ten times for the Blues this season, scoring once. He has scored 26 times in 125 games across competitions.

Former player warns Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang he could lose place at Stamford Bridge

The Gabon international arrived at Stamford Bridge this summer from Barcelona. to talkSPORT, Townsend said that Aubameyang risks being labelled a waste of time unless he changes his attitude on the pitch. "Let’s be honest he was playing walking football by the end of his time there (at Arsenal). Every time I watched him, I used to think ‘you don’t run around’. He’s a great goalscorer with a fantastic record. I understand all of that. But if you don’t charge around, you’re a waste of time in modern day Premier League football,” said Townsend. Townsend predicts that Aubameyang could eventually get left out of Potter's team. “Now, what will define Aubameyang for him at Chelsea as an older player if he gets left out. I’d be very interested to see the reaction. And he will get left out. There might be a point where things aren’t going great. Graham Potter might want to shake things up, and he might think he needs a little bit more energy up top,” said Townsend. He added:“I think he’s important for them because he’s a goalscorer, but I wonder how it’ll be if it goes in the other direction." Aubameyang, 33, has three goals from six games for the Blues since arriving in the summer. Paul Merson predicts the result of Newcastle vs Chelsea and other EPL GW 16 fixtures!
