Not sure Gallagher is even for sale or wants to move. 

 

Also, I think Gallagher is only better in fitness record, otherwise he's at least on a level. Ramsey probably offers more overall, especially in attack. 

 

(I'm not a big fan of Gallagher anyway TBH, all he can do is run.)

The injuries are a big deal like. 
 

It’s been years since Ramsey was that player that looked on the verge of being in The England squad. 
 

Said before Ramseys ceiling is higher imo. But you kind of know what you would get from a Gallagher and that’s someone close ish to ability to Joelinton. Ramsey could go either way.

Aye you know who else was less? Alan Shearer.

 

We signed Bruno 3 and a half years ago, fees have only gone more mental in that time.

Fees for English Premier League players certainly have, aye.

People complaining about his injury record, ye of little faith...

 

[NUFC_Chris]

What is it this summer with x player only wants x club. Clearly that’s a load of shit. How gormless do these people think we are.

Aye fair, hopefully his injuries were mainly to do with living in Birmingham.

I assume that's why we looked at El Khannouss.

I'd imagine if it wasn't for his injury record, it'd be overwhelming positive.

 

It's definitely a concern, but you've got to trust the club has done its due diligence.

What’s he like as a player? I’ve not seen much of him. I liked the idea in June but the mixed reaction here and villa fans not being too bothered has me wondering.

I’m a believer in there being better value to be found in other leagues.

Injury record doesn't concern me tbh. Yes he's had issues but, once again, I'll choose to believe Howe, Nickson et al aren't braindead and have considered that risk. If they're happy I'm happy. 

 

More good stuff. Wissa next and finally I can be smooth.

In a perfect world we sign El Khannouss as well and somehow move Willock on. 

Do people think anyone will come in for Willock when he is out injured another 5 weeks at least? I know players move when injured but it seems a stretch, and we dont want Willock stretching or he will pull his hammy or worse.

 

If we shift Isak then maybe we bring in Bilam (EK) or someone else more attacking. Not sure we are in a position to do that until we know what's happening with Isak. 

 

 

[Ashley17]

Have to say like I respect how much Downie sticks to his sources and doesn't follow Romano and the likes. 

[Playmaker]

I know edited highlights vids on YouTube can make anyone look like prime Andrea Pirlo so it’s hard to judge him , but I am liking some of stuff in this vid.

When did Connor Gallagher become the most popular and sought after midfielder in world football on this forum? 
 

Every thread some fucker is mentioning him

No but I want them to.

[HaydnNUFC]

If he’s the Longstaff replacement then happy days so long as we can get Wissa and probably another striker on top (Samu for me, preferably). And maybe, just maybe, I’ll be hyped as fuck about going to watch us again.

I can see a situation where he goes to Fulham on loan with an obligation to buy him for £20m next summer 

[Disco]

Worrying this one. Probably doesn’t even love the club like Sir Jack Raymond did.

If it was off then on, I reckon it's because we are bringing Asensio back. 

You recon this fee pays for what they want for Asensio?

Stylistically he's very similar to Willock, but he's better in most departments other than that explosive turn of pace.

He's definitely got a high ceiling IMO, at one point he was talked about as Villa's most exciting player.  Rogers has overshadowed him a bit. 

[ElDiablo]

I was really hoping we might try to evolve the side this summer with a view to recruiting better technical ability and creativity. May be a tad harsh but this seems a decent chunk of change for more of the same profile of player to what's here already.

How not? Been plagued with injuries over the last two seasons.  He has not been a regularly when he is fit either Would have preferred El Khannouss.

[Displayname]

Getting really exited watching highlights videos of him. 

Could be something special if he isn't hindered by injuries.

[r0cafella]

3 injury prone cms on the books is asking for it.

Ramsey has excellent technical ability, he’s just had a couple of bad years with injury. 
 

He’s had a great pre season from what I’m reading.
