Mustoe: Leeds winger Aaronson can outshine Chelsea's Pulisic

Former Premier League midfielder Robbie Mustoe can see Leeds winger Brenden Aaronson outshining Chelsea's Christian Pulisic.

Aaronson continued his impressive start to his Leeds career by scoring his first goal for the Whites in the 3-0 win against Chelsea on Sunday. The 21-year-old's USA team-mate Pulisic came off the bench for Chelsea but failed to make an impact.

"I'm not going to go all the way there, but we know Christian Pulisic is the golden child for American soccer because of what he's done and going to a club like Chelsea," said Mustoe on The 2 Robbies Podcast.

"Aaronson might end up - and this is crazy early - having a better Premier League career than him given his attributes. He's got an unbelievable engine.

"He can run all day long and doesn't look like he's sweating. The quickness, the sharpness, the cleverness that he's got - he's 21! He's going to come on."
