US national team coach Pochettino said that Pulisic is currently the most important player in the national team.

The US national team will play two warm-up matches with Ecuador (October 11) and Australia (October 15). Pochettino has announced the new national team roster, and Milan player Pulisic was selected. Pulisic made 7 appearances in Milan this season, scoring 6 goals and assisting 2 times.

Pochettino said: "Pilisic is a very outstanding player and has always maintained a stable performance. I think we can say that he is currently the most important player in the national team. He still plays well under great pressure. He plays well in a club like Milan and must perform well every week and every game, and he does a good job."

Before this summer's Golden Cup, Pulisic publicly stated that he was tired and hoped not to participate in the Golden Cup, which made Pochettino very dissatisfied. However, the two have now reconciled and work together for next year's local World Cup.
