BonesJones Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 5 minutes ago, Emotic said: Yeah, imagine that one Anthony Gordon cost 120 percent of a Bruno Guimaraes. The English tax is insane, like. I wouldn't even say it's a tax. Its just part of their value because they tick a box a Brazilian/French/etc player can't.

That's true and I'm surprised we forked out that much on Gordon as well tbf. But I honestly don't see what Gallagher is good at, or what he adds to us beside replacing a body on the way out.

Yeah I wouldn’t touch him at that price, I’d have him on loan to give us cover but would hope we can get in better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 This is all forum chit-chat but if you could sign Gallagher for 40-45m or Maddison for 55-65m, I'd be doing the Maddison deal 10/10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he's definitely away in the summer if he doesn't renew his contract and if we're in the CL next season there's a very good chance he's coming here.

I can see Gallagher’s qualities as a midfielder, but my issue is that if he signed it would very much a case of a much of a muchness in that midfield. Willock, Longstaff to some extent have the same profile. Ideally, would want someone with a bit more guile on the ball. Neves perhaps, but he’s completely unobtainable.

Thank you for wording my thoughts far better than I possibly could here. Fully agree and it's why I'm not arsed about getting him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memphis Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I'd be pleased with Gallagher on a loan with an option to buy - but less pleased with an obligation to buy. In the summer, we'll have a better idea of our financial position and whether or not we'll be in Europe next season, and can plan accordingly. He may well prove to be worth something close to 40m compared with other options. Or perhaps not. We'd be able to decide. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 If it were a straight choice between Gallagher and Berge on loan, I think I'd want Gallagher. I've not seen loads of Berge though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
