MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Chelsea manager Graham Potter says forward Christian Pulisic will be sidelined for at least two weeks with a knee injury. The United States winger hurt his right knee while attempting a shot on goal in a 1-0 loss to Manchester City on Thursday in the Premier League. Potter provided an injury update after his team’s 4-0 loss to City — this time in the FA Cup — on Sunday. He says, “Christian just opened up his knee in the game the other day so we’re still analyzing it. It’s going to be weeks, I would say.”
