Pamplemousse Posted 24 January, 2018 Share Posted 24 January, 2018 For £19.1 million, he better be good. I’m surprised Chelsea didn’t come in for him, they’re after a target man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doddisalegend Posted 24 January, 2018 Share Posted 24 January, 2018 Deal closer....19m agreed. Would suggest the manager is going no where then? Can't see us getting in a player so obviously tied to the current manager if we plan to sack him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajjuk Posted 24 January, 2018 Share Posted 24 January, 2018 Kind of weird we have not given Gallagher a go, I mean granted he's not exactly banging in the goals, but then neither is this fella. Plus Gallagher is bigger (if we are after this big lump up front) and younger, so more likely to improve, plus free, not £20 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Gallagher is bigger (if we are after this big lump up front) and younger, so more likely to improve, plus free, not £20 million. I expected Gallagher to be in around the team this season as a replacement for Jrod but his loan was for the season wasn't it? So we can't use him even if we wanted. Given our circumstances we need to get another striker through the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le God Posted 24 January, 2018 Share Posted 24 January, 2018 Kind of weird we have not given Gallagher a go, I mean granted he's not exactly banging in the goals, but then neither is this fella. 1) Gallagher cannot be recalled 2) Gallagher has 5 goals in his last 7 games.

Odd logic. If it were simply that we couldn't work on more than one deal at a time, then why prioritise tyke Argentinean Shane Long over someone like Promes who is good and who would improve our first team. Also, I wouldn't hold your breath on the CB situation, we've needed at least one for two seasons more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-A300FU using Tapatalk Reported on Sunday on the Monaco forum: "Pour ceux qui voyaient son absence comme un signe de départ, pour ce que ça vaut Jardim à annoncé après le match qu’il était blessé aux ischios". Basically translates as: For those who see his absence as a sign he's leaving, worth noting that Jardim (the manager) stated after the game he was injured with a hammie.

Maybe (just maybe) the type of striker he is will actually enhance the other attacking players at the club? Perhaps his hold up play will allow for more bodies to support attacks?
