Christian Pulisic offered a positive verdict on AC Milan head coach Ruben Amorim despite admitting to experiencing a "strange start" under the manager. Amorim, who joined Milan on a two-year deal in June following his departure from Manchester United, has won three of his first six matches. Pulisic missed early fixtures due to injury and initial benchings, but he affirmed that he shares a strong relationship with the manager and remains optimistic about the team's system.

Amorim previously welcomed Pulisic's frustration over lack of playing time as he recovered from fitness issues. Pulisic recently earned man-of-the-match honors in a 3-0 victory against Lecce, positioning Milan just two points off the top of Serie A ahead of their upcoming fixture against Sassuolo.
