Mashed Potatoes

I was very unhappy with what happened that season which I think was principally down to Owen Coyle failing to organise the team in a way to give us sufficient defensive solidity .- I don't put that at Gallagher's door - as I recall he seemed to be putting in 100% in the way the manager was playing him

Gallagher scored 11 goals from 43 appearances in an inferior side when he was last with us so he is capable of a reasonable return - and the manager is clearly happy with much of his present contribution. Ultimately any successful side wins and loses as a team and if he is part of a team that has begun to deliver the results I think we should be happy

Completely agree

You could say the same about Guardiola

This is the division where everyone can beat everyone else. I will take a 1-0 win courtesy of a last minute deflected shot

No -we'll be in the FA Cup semi final that day

Sam Gallagher is now 24 so is hardly still a "young player" - Raheem Sterling is the same age and now the best English footballer so it is reasonable to expect Gallagher to be the finished article

Had a quick look and there was a hold up so the deal went through in early July

Didn't Hoyle sell the club in May to Phil Hodgkinson ?

5-1 now. Brilliant stuff but credit to Kosovo who at least are not parking the bus

Based on his transfers at Stoke waste it on Berahino
