was a joke mate.
No but he ran about a lot and waved his arms whilst being shite 90% of the time.Did Freund have double digit goals and assists for us?
I'd bet money he's at Chelsea when this window closes. In fact going to see what Paddy power will give it
I'm not overly excited by the player. But the absolute horror and fear it would send across the Chelsea fan base as they realise that we are and always have been the bigger club would make it money well spent in my opinion. Whatever the fee.
It's time they learned to accept their natural place in the food chain.
I haven't missed anything mate - you're debating whether or not the club would buy him, I'm discussing the merits of the player & the value placed upon him onntye assumption that we are interested in signing him going by the rumours. I'll not bother repeating myself beyond this post on this point so we'll agree to disagree i guess
He goes in to compete with Bentancur Bissouma Sarr for the CM positions, ahead of Skipp and replacing PEH. On paper he'd have to prove himself better than the other 3 but if we're after him than that's clearly where the people buying and oking the transfer see him. What you or i think is by the by
If we don't someone else will - we should worry about ourselves first and foremost
Gallagher would be a really good signing at the right price.
Even if you don't think he's good enough to dislodge any of our first choice CM 3 (which is debatable) having the option to bring him on at 60 minutes would go some way towards helping maintain the intensity of our play.

So you don't even know what position he would play, let alone what player he would replace.
Fair enough. Discussion over.
But we removed Lloris and Dier's wages. Plus he wouldn't come in without PEH leaving anyway.
Finances won't be the issue.
It could well be the case that he's told Levy that Skippy and PEH aren't the right profile and GLC is too unreliable so I need one more midfield option.
Gallagher would cook in this system.
Considering your recent predictions this means CG is definitely on.
CM mate it's stated in the post you quoted as is the player he'd replace initially.
Well done for maintaining a discussion this long given you clealy can't fucking read.
UEFA rule means we can have:
Maximum of 17 foreign players
Maximum of 21 foreign + association players
Unlimited club trained or U21 players (latter have to have been with us for 2 years)
Foreign:
18: Vicario Porro Emerson Dragusin Romero VdV Udogie Hojbjerg Bissouma Lo Celso Bentancur Kulusevski Son Werner Richarlison Solomon Gil Veliz
Association:
5: Davies Johnson Forster Sessegnon Maddison
Club trained or U21:
3: Sarr, Skipp, Austin
So as it stands, if we sign Werner permanently, we would have to pick 2 players out of Sessegnon, Gil, Veliz to not be in a squad. If we bought another foreign player or even an association player this summer, we would have to ship out all 3.

Am I missing something or is buying Gallagher not actually that helpful for our HG issue?

Well he's either a really good signing or he's not. Regardless of the price.
Skipp/PEH/Lo Celso
Sarr has the higher ceiling but right now there is very little between them.
It is obviously helpful, because signing Gallagher is entirely dependent on Hojbjerg leaving. It opens up one Foreign slot and takes up an Association slot in which we are severely deprived of decent players in. Gallagher is also a few years younger. It just makes sense quality wise, squad wise, and tactics wise. The only question mark is his Chelsea allegiance, but I believe he is a top professional and ultimately it won't matter if it happensUEFA rule means we can have:

This is true, to some degree anyway - we know the club isn't going to over extend itself with transfer fees so all that matters is how they do once here.
