Ex Borussia Dortmund player, Christian Pulisic has said Chelsea will keep trying to reach the very top of the EPL, after the English giant sealed a 6th successive win at home vs Crystal Palace.
Chelsea defeated their London rivals to go above Manchester City and into second place in the league.
Pulisic believes Chelsea can chase Liverpool all the way and overtake them.
His words on his goal vs Palace, “I just got in the box and luckily the ball just bounced right to me and that helped us a lot, but I think we deserved it in the end. We had a lot of chances and we should’ve scored [more] but it was a good result in the end.
“The first half, we were dominating but we just couldn’t get the goal. We just stuck with it and eventually Tammy got the other one and in the end, it was a good result.
“Not bad at all [being second in the Premier League]. We want to be right up there at the top so we’ll just keep going.”
Tammy Abraham who also scored, said, “It wasn’t our best game today, you can see that”,
“The most important thing was that we got the three points. At half-time the manager said we need to stay focused as the chances will come and we came out in the second half much better and got the two goals.
“Crystal Palace are a good side. They defend well as a team and in the first half, they frustrated our style of play. Second half we believed and we didn’t change our style of play, we just wanted to play attacking football and we got the two goals.
“The No.9’s who have been at Chelsea have been world-class strikers and it was a big task for me to take on but I was ready, I felt ready in myself and I’m wearing it and I’m proud to be the No.9.”
