aimaad22 4240 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I don't think they're trying to rescue this season now. This is all mean to give Potter something to build for next season. Aresenal just seem to have a good relationship with other top clubs. Probably because they haven't been a real threat for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2311 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Seems like Hope is strongly implying that if Fernandez signs for Chelsea then the possibility of Gallagher signing for us is decent. That was the common logic before Hope tweeted this, but it's reassuring to see him chime in as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22198 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Gallagher is a good option. Adds depth. Does he start though? Would be harsh on willock and Longstaff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6801 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 He is more of a goal threat than either. And he seems to have the tenacity and stamina for the role. hang though, is he 6 foot ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17742 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 If you’re any sort of fringe player at Chelsea you’ve got to be thinking that tomorrow is the last chance to get the fuck out of Dodge City Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be harsh on willock and Longstaff For me he definitely starts over either Willock or Longstaff. He's got the engine, graft, ability to defend, ability to carrying the ball, and he can hit a barn door unlike Willock and Longstaff at the minute. Hopefully we aren't getting ahead or ourselves given it seems like a transfer that could fall apart quite easily. Having said that I'm sure Howe would introduce him carefully so as to not rock the boat, again should we manage to push it through.

Dr Gloom 22198 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I don’t think he carries the ball more or works harder than willock either. i do think he’s a good squad addition and an upgrade on Shelvey, though he plays in a different position, but I’m not sure he walks into the side in the way that Jorginho would as he would free Bruno up to play further forwards. Gallagher is a ball carrier like Joelinton and Willock. I’m not sure he’s better than either of them tbh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His versatility alone makes him a better option than Willock, who apart from one very hot streak when he first joined has been a lot less impressive since then. Gallagher got eight goals and six assists that season for Palace and as mentioned Vieira chopped and changed his position quite frequently. If we sign him he'll be more than merely a good squad option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2311 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) Bournemouth are going for it. If they manage to sign this attacking mid Traore, it will take their spending to close to 60m for January. On the plus side for everyone else if these lads are decent there could be a fire sale come the end of the season.

The wanker having a go at Gordon for not getting out of his car is an absolute melt, I’m sure you’d have got right out your car as a 21 year old kid at night to a crowd of blokes with their faces covered hurling abuse at you. It’s pathetic man, it’s a fucking game of football you scummy twat. No wonder Gordon couldn’t get out quick enough, it’ll make it hard to attract players going forward as well as anyone that’s seen that would think twice about going. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
