00:03 Yeah, I think he is fundamental.

00:12 He is an important beast.

00:13 His characteristics that he brings

00:15 that differentiates from several players--

00:17 we have a few others that have that quality,

00:19 but Pulisic has the explosive accelerations,

00:22 low center of gravity, good mobility.

00:24 And he has that knack and that sense

00:26 to be able to drive in the ax or the axis of the field.

00:30 And those are game-changing moments

00:32 that can open up a game.

00:34 [MUSIC PLAYING]

00:37 It's one of his key qualities to arrive exactly

00:48 like very, very in the box, and not even only in the box,

00:52 but also in the six-yard box.

00:54 He gives something, of course, in terms of sprints,

00:58 repetitive sprints, intensity on and off the ball.

01:02 But he is, in the end of the attacks, he's hungry to score.

01:05 He arrives in the box.

01:06 And this is where we need players.

01:08 [MUSIC PLAYING]

01:12 He's a very good player because--

01:23 you know, I always say to my players, the forward players,

01:26 I say, I like players that make fire, not smoke.

01:28 You can be top scorer and top player, assist player.

01:31 I like him very much.

01:32 When I analyze a player, when I want to buy a player,

01:35 I think, if I'm on the other side,

01:38 if I need to play against him, is it easy or not easy?

01:41 It's not easy to play against him.

01:58 just the unity and the team spirit that we display.

02:02 I hope that's what's, you know, helping us gain fans

02:05 or whatever, like you said.

02:07 I hope people watching, you know,

02:09 especially back home in the States, can see, wow,

02:11 these guys are really, you know, giving everything

02:14 for each other, for this country.

02:16 And that's what really makes us special.
