In the midst of Chelsea’s current challenges, one shining light has been Conor Gallagher’s commendable performance this season. The midfielder, a consistent starter in almost every Premier League game, has even taken on the captain’s armband on several occasions. However, despite his impactful contributions, Gallagher is grappling with a personal frustration – the elusive goal.
Gallagher, in an interview with Chelsea’s official website, expressed his disappointment at being yet to find the back of the net in the ongoing campaign. Despite the team’s occasional struggles in front of goal, Chelsea managed to overcome Sheffield United over the weekend, securing a 2-0 victory.
While Gallagher’s name was absent from the scoresheet, his performance did not go unnoticed. Paul Merson, a keen observer of the game, deemed Gallagher the best player on the pitch during the encounter.
The 23-year-old midfielder acknowledged his goal-scoring aspirations, stating, “Of course, I want to score goals, and that’s something I want to add to my game this season. It’s frustrating that I haven’t scored yet this season, but as long as I’m helping the team to victories, then that’s all that matters. I’m sure the goals will come soon!”
Gallagher’s goal-scoring record has been a point of discussion, with only three Premier League goals to his name in the previous season. However, a closer look at his loan spell with Crystal Palace in the 2021/22 season reveals a more prolific side, with the England international finding the back of the net eight times.
This history underscores Gallagher’s ability to contribute offensively, especially considering the quality of his strikes and powerful shots evident in the current season. As he continues to strive for that elusive first goal, the anticipation is high among fans and pundits alike, confident that Gallagher’s goal-scoring prowess will soon be on full display.
