Christian Pulisic has missed the Sheffield United game due to ‘family issues’, Thomas Tuchel told a post-match press conference.
The American was on the bench for the first three games under Tuchel but appeared as a sub every time.
Pulisic enjoyed working under Tuchel at Borussia Dortmund so it was a bit surprising to see him not featuring in the starting XI as he often did under Frank Lampard.
In his absence, the Blues have laboured a 2-1 win over the Blades which allows them to go to the fifth place, just one point away from the Champions League zone.
