Over the last 5 season, Gallaghers mail strike partners at Blackburn have scored over a hundred Championship goals in total. Do we play with 2 strikers?.. 433 suggests we play with 3 not that I think it’s a true reflection. |

Do we play with 2 strikers?.. Blackburn haven't. Armstrong scored 28 goals with Gallagher and Brereton either side of him. Brereton score 20+ with Gallagher and someone else playing in a 3. Last season Szmodics scored 25+ playing as a 10 with Dolan, behind Gally. This. He must be doing something very positive in his play. I’m really hoping that he can do for Bae what he has done for Szmodics, i.e., bully defenders and provide space for an able runner to exploit. |

If we can go in to the season with Gallagher, Mmaee and a Cannon/Archer type on loan as our 3 strikers, we will be in a good position and have 3 different style players to mix it up as required.

He strikes me as one of those players whose value to the team often goes unnoticed, Blackburn's record over the last couple of seasons: 2023/24Gallagher starting - 21 games 27 points (1.28 pts per game) Not starting - 25 games 26 points (1.04 pts per game) 2022/23Gallagher starting - 32 games 56 points (1.75 pts per game) Not starting - 14 games 13 points (1.08 pts per game) |

Combine that with a unit that scores freely and you’re getting into very expensive territory. It’s always been the case that we might have to find these attributes in more than 1 player. |

Strikers arnt judged on just goals anymore seems more off a nuisance forward.
I think he is OK and it stops him scoring against us and with players willing to run of him it's a good move.

Interesting comment re Ennis Could be based on him realising himself that he's not going to get the amount of minutes he wants or needs here. He really is a player you'd only stick on in the last 10 minutes to either run around and chase things or as a last chance saloon. |

For me the only way I can cast judgement is by watching the overall team performance,
How many shots we have have compared to last year, the amount of goals per game, and the overall Enjoyment I get from the stands,

It doesn't matter what they think. Just because it didn't work for him there doesn't mean it won't here. I don't know if it will, but we will find out. There is thousands of examples in football even at the very highest level of players not being brilliant at one club before moving and them finding huge success. That on it's own is enough to just give someone a chance Of course it matters, they’ve watched him the most. Perhaps we've scouted him and want him for a particular role? |

So? We all watched N'Zonzi and there was still a large number who thought he was useless. Even just for us in terms of players suddenly performing...Thorne, Stein and Sheron. Never prolific for anyone else. Signed for us and it changed. Fuller wasn't rated really then he signed for us..Bremen fans didn't really like Arnautovic. That is only an extremely small group of examples Gallagher fits the bill of why we have failed these last 6 years. A continuation of failed policy. It's almost like you've made your mind up on him before you've seen him play. I'm sure that's not the case and I'm sure you'll give him a fair crack of the whip. |

They can only be used to back up BO's arguments. Otherwise, like goals, they are irrelevant. |

Would be another very positive addition exactly what wevev missed for years valuable in both boxes and most importantly helps us get up the pitch when under the cosh , because of his hold up play and proven to be able to co-e in this league .

We need to build a team that can score goals not just sign a striker and hope he bags 20 a season. Gallagher seems to fit the bill.

Makes more sense if we are bringing in a pacey forward but also interesting comments on Mmaee as a second striker. Possible hints towards shifting to a 4231. We'd need a left winger for Bae to move inside with Mmaee as an alternative and different option deeper. |

Those statistics say he’s injury prone . They also don’t recognise WHARTON who is the real driving force behind Blackburn scoring record not Gallager |

Soon to be 29 and doesn’t score goals? Sounds about right. He works ‘ard though so it’s got Walters all over this one.
58 goals in over 300 matches, but for some reason Blackburn tended to play him as a winger.
We should be looking for someone in the £15 - £20 million bracket for a top goalscorer.
