With his brace yesterday against Torino, the American has climbed to the top of the Serie A scoring charts with seven goals, tied with Lautaro Martinez. While the Inter captain has a league average of one goal every 151 minutes, the former Chelsea player scores one every 64 minutes. Considering those who have scored at least two goals in the first 14 matchdays, no one has such a low minutes-per-goal average (including the Coppa Italia, his average drops to one goal every 61 minutes).
There were some doubts in the build-up to the game about whether Christian Pulisic would recover in time for the trip to the capital.

It's unlikely to be anything serious for the American, but the situation will be monitored with the utmost caution given his importance.
