    Was delighted to see the back of Burke he’s utterly useless. I’ve just never understood the hype

    The problem with Burke is that he had such an exquisite footballing mind that his body just couldn’t cash the cheques that’s his genius was writing. A mastermind at work.

    I liked him when he was here last time, a lot better than anything else we had at the time and that’s true still today. Hopefully a perm or loan to buy.

    Not sure he stood out to me in a positive or negative way. Might not be the worst thing for a centre half

    Would prefer buy, rather than loan, unless it's a Paddy Roberts type long term loan.

    Only thing is his injury record that is a worry.

    If it's a half season, then what's the point, just play youngsters.

    I think this one will happen but I’d like us to get Gallagher in as well his wages won’t be as high either

    A loan with a option to buy would be a good deal. He’d certainly be a upgrade on Duffy, Bitton and probably Julien.

    Think we could sign Messi this window though and I wouldn’t get excited...hurry up August.

    Gallagher would be cheap and at worst a solid squad player. We have relied to heavily on Bitton as a back up cb.

    I though the big guy was solid enough when he was here and his tackle on Miller will forever be fondly remembered. As other posters have already said, a loan deal would be the better option and I too would also like to see us sign Gallagher

    It was Simunovic who made that tackle on Miller.

    Don’t get why anyone would want Gallagher. He’s pish. Was going to say he’s a younger Shane Duffy but I’ve just seen they’re the same age.

    Genuinely thought Gallagher was about 23 or something.
