LFEE Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I’ve mentioned this before but I really can’t see Gallagher giving up a current starting place in the Chelsea team or even spot in the squad. He’s an absolutely massive Chelsea fan along with his dad. I know he had a loan spell at WBA but everything Ive heard about him via Chelsea fans screams he wouldn’t even move north of the M25 if he could avoid it and is extremely rooted in the south. As a player I’ve not been that impressed by him watching him against us and bits on TV last season and this. So admittedly limited amount. Heres his backstory for anyone interested. Very in-depth. https://lifebogger.com/conor-gallagher-childhood-biography-story-facts/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Gallagher would be fantastic under Howe. Not sure on Loftus-Cheek, doesn’t seem to have much fight in his game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many journalists know fuck all, but it’s the tone with him. ”Everything reported has been rubbish, this is how it is”. It’s obviously deliberate, it’s all he’s got. Yeah I know, I shouldn’t let him provoke me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronson333 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Signing that Chelsea trio would be similar to some of Howe’s signings from Liverpool when at Bournemouth. Only Gallagher I would be ok with, do not want the other two. Edited January 16, 2023 by Ronson333 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got everything but its just not working for him at Chelsea (like many others). Gallagher the Palace version will be a good signing. Not sure why Chelsea would let them go here Isn't he Carl Cort's brother? Would explain his injury problems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Haven't seen RLC for a while but I like the other two. Ziyech is a huge upgrade of Murphy and I think Gallagher would bring what Longstaff does but with more end product. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very in-depth. https://lifebogger.com/conor-gallagher-childhood-biography-story-facts/ Sounds a bit similar to Joe Willock before he moved up tbf. I think, ultimately, it's about his career and whether he can buy into the project and then weigh that up against what he's seeing at Chelsea. The way that ownership is acting, he'll be lucky to make their bench next season. The writing is on the wall imho. He's got to move but, as you say, I'm sure if he wanted to stay in London he'd get a move back to somewhere like Palace tomorrow. Incidentally, Palace and us showed an interest in signing RLC permanently during the Ashley era. Surprise, surprise we couldn't/wouldn't pay his wages...

STM Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Gallagher, I think would be a good fit and Howe would turn him into a consistent top player. He's got similar attributes to Longstaff but also some end product. He's also an England International and its important we try and have a few embedded in our squad, where possible. If we could get a loan with an option, I think that would be perfect. RLC I'm not so sure about. He often seems injured. He's a good player but whether he's got it in himself to make that leap further? He's versatile, which is something Eddie would want. Ziyech, on loan would be an incredible addition. He's a door opener. Long term, no thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieDazzler Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) That Edwards article states that they need to cut players ahead of their CL last 16 tie since the arrival of Felix, Mudryk and Ballishide. Are the first two not cup tied? Or is that not a thing in the CL anymore? Edited January 16, 2023 by GeordieDazzler Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
