[Albion] Conor Gallagher ?

[Uh_huh_him]

Decent player -I'm sure he would improve the squad depth - but too expensive.

The sort of money it would take to get him, would be much better spent on an RDZ approved target or two.

 

[Simster]

Just a premier league version of CMS for me. Lots of running but what does he really do with the ball?

Indeed. Lots of effort but his third touch is a tackle. Major skill/talent deficiency and no composure but runs around a lot and has lovely hair.

No wonder Spurs are interested

 

[Simster]

Good post. So many clueless people on here saying he is rubbish. Just look at the stats.

Yes he's so good that Chelsea want to sell him.

That's Chelsea, in *checks notes* 10th position, who have been behind us for the best part of 18 months.

He's clearly not "rubbish" by the way. He's just massively overrated by many.

Part of the HILARIOUS over spending means they have to sell HGP to balance the books

Slight point of order.
It's quite possible Chelsea don't want to sell CG it's just that The Todd's phenomenal business model means they have to sell their, been with the club since 6 years old, bleeds blue, captain and leader to make the books balance - Well done The Todd.

Point taken chaps

 

[Pevenseagull]

He does something very well.

Kulesevski, Gomes and Ayew low 30s

A few on 30.

Our highest is Baleba on 18.

Well, you are entitled to your opinion, but you clearly don’t watch either player very carefully

1 - Conor Gallagher is the only player in Europe's big five leagues this season with 20+ shots, 20+ chances created, 20+ dribbles completed, 20+ touches in the opposition box, 20+ duels won, 20+ tackles and 20+ interceptions. Unique.

I imagine his heat map is very impressive.

This is the equivalent of Mr Bloom having to sell Dunk in order to validate the purchase of Maguire.

The Todd and Losestanley are playing a different game to everyone else.

This is quite a selective stat. What is it trying to tell us? Or make us think? There must be plenty of others who have in excess of 20 for most of these but maybe not all. Harry Kane has 21 goals for example, so must have quite a healthy “shots” tally.

Of course you are going to cherry pick the stats…looks like he’s joining you (Spurs) and you are enthusiastic …for the moment

It will be interesting to see how he slots into your style though I accept, apart from the ridiculously, easily penetrated, high line you hold there are quite a few similarities to the way Albion play.

He’s a Spurs fan

I see. I guess if he’s happy with him then fine. I just don’t want him at the Albion.

Like stats are everything. The Dale Stephens failed argument. He doesn’t fit our style and is a poor player (technically) they want too much money for.

 

[b.w.2.]

Just another point I will make about this overpriced and at best average player. We were offered him to try and keep the Moises outlay down. We said No.

Impressive stats from Baleba given how many minutes he’s played compared to some

 

[AK74]

I'd rather have Frank Gallagher in midfield.

Frank Spencer ?

 

[Seagull58]

He's a walking/running yellow card. Runs around a lot and tackles late.
