Graham Potter is taking his press conference ahead of tomorrow night’s game against Fulham, and there was plenty to talk about.
On the signings front there is good news – on the injury front, bad news. Christian Pulisic limped off against Man City last week and will now be out for “a couple of months,” another body blow to Potter’s squad and Pulisic’s career at the club.
Potter says Aubameyang is fit to return vs Fulham but Pulisic will be out for “a couple of months, hopefully less”. Still waiting for timeframe on Sterling #CFC

It didn’t look that bad in the moment, yet once again the USA star will have to work his way back to fitness, then back to form, then force his way into the team.
Reinforcements in the form of Joao Felix have now arrived – but you can see why that move was rushed through with the club likely already knowing the extent of this issue some days ago.
Raheem Sterling is still waiting for more news on his problem – which can only be a bad sign.
