I prefer good players to English or any other nationality. Why has Gallagher failed at Atleti and fallen behind even Henderson for England?

Because he’s shite ?

From what I understand Gallagher was doing well for Atletico in a 3 man then they shifted to a 2 man which he isn’t suited to. He’s a solid spare man with a great engine. Him being behind Henderson is some weird Tuchel thing.

I don’t want him though, we have too many OK midfielders.

Thomas Frank on the squad, and how close is it to being what he wants...

"I think that's difficult. I think that there's no doubt that I want, how can I say this, a big enough, small enough squad! You know what I mean?

It needs to be big enough and robust enough to compete in all four tournaments because that's extremely important, but I can't have too many players.

It's just so difficult to keep everyone happy, it is almost impossible, and then we also want to see if we can add in enough quality, but again, we don't want to sign players we don't think can really improve the squad.

Then I would rather wait to have the right talented players. I'm not here for the short term fix.

I want to build something that can last, so we need to think longer term, but of course we need to compete now. That's my thought process."
Nope....didn't understand a feckin word of it sorry.

How many times have we heard managers say they are building for the long term and that fabled long term never materialises because the manager isn't backed and gets sacked
