To me a good move even if only on loan. A year with a transition this big we need all the help we can get especially in midfield. I agree also that I think he suffered being at a meh West Brom last year so hoping for the best.

Yes but nowhere near enough IMO. Good synopsis of our CM. Welcome CG to CPFC! Could have had him last season but opted for michy at the last minute... Glad that's not soured his desire to come play for us and learn from the maestro box to box midfielder that is Monsieur Vieira !

Yes but nowhere near enough IMO. That's what I saw last year. In Gallagher I see someone who lacks the best qualities of each of these players, but whose weaknesses are significantly less costly than the corresponding weaknesses in the others. Basically, as an all-round player, I think he may be more useful than any of them. Good deal, I predict.

If we play a higher line having a proper box to box midfielder will be vital as last year our midfield was painfully slow. I think he'll turn out to be a very good signing based on what I saw of him last season.

Same thought as mine Willo, I too, fear he'll battle with Luka for the amount of cautions he'll collect, think it was 12 last season for WBA. Tho, tbf, a lot of those were chasing lost causes & 'youthful exuberance'. Hopefully, he's matured a bit more & wont be as reckless.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |
