Gallagher at his best is basically a busy cunt runner type. I hesitate to even call him a Sarr/Bergvall profile, because they’re better on the ball than him. That’s all he is though, blood and thunder all action with no technical ability or passing whatsoever.
 
I dont believe we're in for anybody

I think ENIC may have made a mistake regarding Paratici's input for this window.

I will wait and see where we are at the end of the window but it is becoming clearer by the day that the fallout between ENIC and Daniel Levy is probably genuine and what we are (not) seeing in this window is tied up with Paratici's departure and the internal politics of the club.

Levy's overseen most of this mess so until all remnants of him are removed it will remain difficult to have an accurate opinion on how serious ENIC without Levy actually are.

Spurs need players and to win some games of football.

This season looks like a car crash though.
 
I'm not exactly excited about this move, but fuck me we do need some central midfielders.

At least he isn't a teenager. He'll walk into our midfield. He's a ready made replacement for Bentancur and much better on the ball.
 
It has always felt really wrong with his Chelsea links but lets try to rationalise it.

Right now we have
6: Palhinha
8: Gray, Sarr

Bentancur out for the season. Bergvall unknown.

Is Gallagher better than Gray and Sarr? Yes.

So basically we will run with a Palhina, Gallagher and Xavi midfield trio for the rest of the season.

I think a good manager could make something out of that but under Frank it will be uninspiring.

If we add another passing 6 or 8 then this Gallagher deal looks a lot better.
 
We keep talking like the managers position is precarious..

But this is signing for a team that prioritises running and athleticism over anything else. Might be a sign that they're more all in on the manager than we thought/hoped
 
Wow, so many people immediately shitting on this move. Who exactly do you imagine us getting? What superstar midfielder do you imagine is eager to join this absolute clown car of a club?

We have to start somewhere. This makes sense.
