Conor Gallagher | Atlético Player

[VorZakone]

This guy is a nothing player. What is he supposed to be good at?

 

[Von Mistelroum]

He's as one dimensional and average as can be. Southgate's ideal midfielder really.

 

[Kazi]

I think he’s okay

 

[Oranges038]

Not even good enough to be in a shampoo ad.

 

[Redlambs]

Etsy Mount.

 

[RyRy11]

Mainoo and Wharton are right there which makes selecting him worse

 

[Drainy]

Utter utter dogshit. Brainless, talentless. Waste of human skin

 

[Castia]

Absolutely crap. Bit part player his entire career loaned out among half the lower league clubs

McTominay looks like Zidane in comparison.

 

[Canucantona20]

Jordan Henderson 2.0

 

[brozonis]

Looked really good as an attacking midfielder at Palace. He's much worse playing deeper.

 

[Carl]

Jordan Henderson 2.0

Insult to Henderson. He's not in Henderson's league.

 

[Carl]

He's basically McTominay minus the height.

 

[TheReligion]

He’s a good ball winner but that’s about it.

 

[VorZakone]

He’s a good ball winner but that’s about it.

Is he even good at that?

 

[90 + 5min]

Jordan Henderson 2.0

Henderson is few levels above and should have been picked and put in first eleven.

 

[Rockets Redglare]

He looked terrified that he was going to get sent off after he got booked. Pulled out of a few challenges later on.

 

[Hammondo]

Mainoo and Wharton are right there which makes selecting him worse

I think we should play both, people will disagree but those 2 + rice (simply because there are no other real options), and that can work. Relying heavily on youth though.

 

[Boneli]

It brings back memories of the bad days of watching England over the last few decades that he is getting minutes because he “has energy” and runs around a bit. Dire.

 

[Yagami]

I think that is a good option. I'd even go as far to say we could go a diamond route of

Rice
Mainoo Wharton
Bellingham
Kane ???
​

but, one, we would need Shaw back, and two, we'd need this tournaments version of Sterling and Rashford. Gordon, I suppose?

I believe Bellingham has played in this formation a lot for Madrid.

Opponents will run through that team. That team will work for next world cup minus Kane.

Gordon is a good pick, but I don't think we have someone on the left to do this and walker isn't such an individual attacking threat.

 

[duffer]

Mad to me that after that performance from England and Southgate, a new Conor Gallagher thread is created.

 

[El Jefe]

Guys please be real. If it was Mainoo out there he too would look shite just as every other England player did.

Gallagher is no world beater but he’s far away from shite. He has qualities that every team could use.

 

[Hammondo]

Gallagher is no world beater but he’s far away from shite. He has qualities that every team could use.

Gallagher is very average, he just has really good stamina.

What are those qualities?

Such as?

You could well be right, and it's definitely not my first choice either. I guess it came to mind because I think Bellingham excelled in that formation this season, but he also had Rodrigo and Vinicius Jr stretching the play next to him.

Gordon is a good pick, but I don't think we have someone on the left to do this and walker isn't such an individual attacking threat.

I just mentioned him in another thread but Saka could be an option. He looked very good at LB before he was moved to the RW position.

 

[Rajiztar]

Gallagher is very average, he just has really good stamina.

Gallagher is a squad player who came as a substitute. He did what he was asked to do.

Well you are talking about something at very least is completely unknown to me, and I would guess unknown to you really. When did you last see Saka play lb?

 

[Hammondo]

Oh I'm not angry at him at all, I just don't think he's someone that's going to help us in the first 11, he's not that good.

He’s a pretty good all round player with incredible work rate. A more sensible Fred if you will with better goal scoring.

These aren’t the stats of a crap player.

Can throw stats at me all day but in the eye test he has shown nothing of note. Just bang bang average.

Those kids are too young to play in central midfield with Bellingham Kane before them in the team. They dont able to support the kids in midfield.

 

[kaku06]

He has no vision, sub par technique, no passing range, can’t control, can’t shoot, can’t dribble. Absolute waste of a midfielder. A nothing player. Mctominay is 10 times better than him and I think mctominay is bang average.

 

[Yagami]

Well you are talking about something at very least is completely unknown to me, and I would guess unknown to you really. When did you last see Saka play lb?

It has been a long time, granted, but I just feel like Saka's one of those players who will perform wherever you ask him to play. The type of player Fergie loved. I recall being very impressed when Saka was first breaking through at Arsenal in that position.

Obviously I'd rather Shaw, but I don't think he'd be a bad stand-in. It's pointless to even discuss, though, because I think the chances of playing him there are close to zero.

 

[flameinthesun]

The Mctominay of the England squad.

 

[Gringo]

Oh I'm not angry at him at all, I just don't think he's someone that's going to help us in the first 11, he's not that good.

Isn't this part of the problem ? ''He's not that good''. What matters is how an XI compliment each other.

https://fbref.com/en/players/c2731c10/scout/365_m1/Conor-Gallagher-Scouting-Report

These aren’t the stats of a crap player.

He scored less goals than mctominay, despite playing half the season as a 10, starting basically every game, and captaining the side.

5 goals is an awful return.

 

[Hammondo]

Isn't this part of the problem ? ''He's not that good''. What matters is how an XI compliment each other.

Yes but aside from stamina he offers nothing better than anyone else, and considering the football is pretty slow, he's not needed.

 

[GledTheRed]

Continually gave it away and ran around kicking folk, shite.

Mainoo is miles better.
