Ash Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 9 hours ago, Unbelievable said: Agree with most of that, but Huijsen is exactly the type of player we should be looking at for that position, i.e. a very promising albeit a bit raw central defender, who can already do a job and has the potential to be a starter long term. Every transfer carries a risk, but I think Huijsen at 12m will be seen as a bargain over time. He has the Spanish national team and the Dutch national team fighting over which he will represent in the future already (Spain winning). Haven’t seen enough of Huijsen specifically to be able to comment but he may not be the positional profile we’re looking for. I also think we’ll go bigger on the CB, someone a bit more first team ready who can come in immediately and make an impact whereas I think Huijsen, simply because of his lack of experience, would be viewed as more of a project over the next few years. We still have more pressing concerns in the first team squad that we have to fill before looking at this type of signing. Bournemouth have recruited very smartly over recent years so I’m sure he’ll be a good signing for them and he may turn into an excellent player in time but I’ll back our recruitment team to get our CB signing right. We probably only have the budget for one CB and we need someone who can hit the ground running (in Howe terms). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He clearly cared and I'm not sure you can say that about a lot of their squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magpie Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Rejected two 3 new three year contracts that would have made him one of the highest earners at the club. Surprised at that to be honest. Maybe he wanted longer? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised at that to be honest. Maybe he wanted longer? Think that’s more club releasing hit pieces to make it seem like they tried all they can and Gallagher is forcing move. When in reality, they’ve not made much effort, happy to sell to bring in PSR funds for further spending and already have his replacement in KDH. Some downgrade this Chelsea squad going to be end of August after spending £150m+ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieDazzler Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 The literally sacked the manager who brought him back in as a starter. Gallagher is a good to excellent player for certain tactical systems, Pep-style death by possession isn’t one of them. A little surprised that he hasn’t went to Spurs/Liverpool tbh but always cool to see English players test themselves abroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea want mount money for him from an English club, Liverpool and Spurs are two of the least likely clubs to pay it imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He even had that strop after being subbed when our player. Didn’t turn out too bad for us in the end. I’m sure if we get him he’ll come good for us, and him Wor Anthony and Isak will be terrorising defences for some time to come! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
