Delphinho123 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Like I say, he’s a really good player. In the last 3 months, he’s pretty much carried that Chelsea central midfield. He’s been playing a little deeper as well. Rarely injured, Chelsea captain in a position we need. For me, it would be a great signing. High energy, good player who can play a variety of positions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But worth the wages?? We competing with other clubs for that signature, might take the highest offer to get it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pongo Waring Posted May 18 Author Share Posted May 18 I agree. Just because Connor Gallagher doesn't have a fancy Foreign name you're all turning your noises against him. Most of the best players in the PL don't have fancy names and are British. Palmer, Gordon Bowen, Saka, Solanke, Watkins, Toney, Gallagher, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 1 hour ago, Delphouneso said: Not sure where he fits in. Understudy to McGinn? Can’t see him being happy with that or us spending the money it would take to get him on a rotation option. Or replacement … Selling McGinn generates pure profit which I get would be untenable for the vast majority of fans and not calling for him to be sold btw just pointing out.

There is some mad deal to be done there around FFP. It would have to be a mad one, wouldn't it? I think Chelsea would sell, but his wage expectations would be very high, they would want a lot of money for him and rightly so, he's a very good player. I would worry about who we would need to sell to make this happen, but Chelsea can't offer him CL football can they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some mad deal to be done there around FFP. Scenes when both us and Chelsea get charged for attempting to circumvent PSR. FA decide because we aren't Man City action needs to be taken now and retroactively deduct us 9 points from this season restoring the preferred order.

villarule123 Posted May 18 VT Supporter Share Posted May 18 If Duran is playing up then there are plenty worse players that we can swap him for than Gallagher. For those saying we don't need a CM, look at how we've struggled in that position over the season with injuries and fatigue. Where he would rank amongst our current CMs I'm not sure, I'd definitely put him on a level equal to most of them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillon66 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Gallagher is a cracking player and if it takes a swap deal with our resident Balotelli tribute act to get him, fine by me..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Would love him here. He's got the type of intensity that we need in our midfield. No idea why Chelsea wiuid sell him though being a regular in the first team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, he wasn’t the only one, but his energy will be welcome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
