Reyna and injuries are frustrating - wanting to get into the squad, not being available for Pokal (league cup) matches against lower division teams or walk through European competing line their match against Celtic hurts.

That has been the path McKennie has rode the past 2 seasons - he doesn't care about what Juventus plans, he shows up in training, takes his opportunities as depth and puts himself into the lineup

Weah is in danger of falling out of the rotation as he deals with injuries.

Circling back to Pulisic, this has been the most refreshing thing with him - he's been able to play a full schedule of big minutes and the production rides with that.

There is a lot of negative talk about his performance with Chelsea, a lot of which is unfair - but it comes with injuries/availability. If you can't show up and consistently work with the top 11, you won't be in it.

From there you risk falling out of the sub pattern as well.

Hopefully he stays healthy and the many US players that seem to constantly struggle for health can find their footing

Chelsea were basically hoarding players. If your name wasn't mason mount, you were going to be in and out of the lineup even if you were healthy.

Tyler Adams and Reyna are both frustrating because they always seem to be injured. Another player that I love is Darryl Dike and his career has been derailed by serious injuries. it's part of the game I guess, and you hope not to have serious injuries.
