Dunnfc Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Ryan Tafazolli best CB in the league one bar Mulgrew, 400k he's ours from Peterborough. A star in the championship, smasher in the tackle and quite ball playing. Happily take him over Lenihan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggested him like Dack last year as he was on a free from Mansfield. Since become an international and POTY I think at Peterborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Chapman might be a perm deal if we can agree a deal for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season he outran defenders with the ball. With his attributes he might even be better suited to the Premiership than championship, could see him grab 10+ goals for one of the promoted teams like Brighton. I agree that his composure needs to improve, and probably lacks the innate cleverness infront of goal like Glen Murray and Rhodes. However those two lack the physical attributes to compete in the Premiership unlike Gallagher. Ya, no doubt about it. Gallagher definitely had pace. In a team that plays the ball into him repeatedly, he will score goals. If he focuses on his football, he could play anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was one footed, he wasn't deceptive in the Berbatov mould. Hes mid table playoff pusher. Not a slant as he seems a lovely lad, really hope he does well in the game but let's face facts there is hardly a que after him and a 1/4 record last year is pretty meh.

He will score between 15 and 20 goals in a team set up properly. Has pace but is not raw pace..dont know how much you seen him live. But his goal against Wolves is one I wont forget for a long time. Wolves are after him and want him to be their main striker ive read. He is a good lad and has a good support network around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said anything about Berbatov? Gallagher is a completely different player. As per my original point he has bags of pace and will get goals if the ball is delivered into him. I think it would be great if he came back here, but his talents will wanted elsewhere. He will score 10-15 again in the championship next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue&WhiteArmy Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Recently followed Harry Chapman on Instagram, according to his story he's staying in an hotel somewhere.. not sure whether to read anything into it but maybe an hotel close to here and possibly waiting to sign for us later today? Unless he's with the Boro squad.. Can't imagine he is though. He'd be a very good signing from what I've seen, hopefully signed and sealed in time for Southend.

You must have the wrong player. Not surprising as you don't watch them much. He's also just signed a new long term contract with Southampton. You wouldn't know if there was a 'que' after him or not. You're confusing an uneducated guess with fact again. 1 in 4 is a decent return in a poor team managed by Coyle for most of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
