Dokko Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Scalvini, can also cover in protecting the bsck 4 (think that's where he'll end up, too much technical ability for a CB) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play well together for Italy U21. What kind of price has he? Would reckon £50m+ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t see either leaving Barca As a young forward - Jonathan Rowe from Norwich - 20 years old - plays all 3 positions - very two footed - technically really good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Feel there's quite a lot of really decent left sided centre backs in the league for the non-elite - Branthwaite, Murillo, Kilman, Guehi, Torres and Botman of course Getting a right sided ball playing centre back seems a bit more difficult for clubs like us to identify. I guess Guehi and Kilman can both play on the right side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

janpawel Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 What's peoples thoughts of Gallagher? Was never a big fan until recently, but have been fairly impressed by him of late. Think he'd be a pretty decent improvement on that specific 'Longstaff' right sides no 8 role Though similar to all of our midfielders other than Bruno, his best traits seem to be around workrate and stamina... Think we have enough of those and not enough technical qualitily! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 He looks a complete try-hard to me with little technical ability. Not what we need I don't think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 He seems to be sought after so it's a bit like Gordon 12 months ago - I don't see it but there must be something about him I'm missing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we have enough of those and not enough technical qualitily! They were talking about him on the radio the other day - apparently he leads all the presses at Chelsea and consistently tops the stats for miles covered, players closed down etc. So in that respect, he's right up Eddie's street. I don't really see what he offers that we don't already have though. We arguably need a proper #10 and/or a proper DM and Gallagher is neither of those Edited December 29, 2023 by Holmesy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
