The moment when Pulis got word from Everton that he could have our #1 LB for the season for nothing:

Are you saying Galloway is better than Baines? Galloway is out on loan to get PL exp.

As a defender, yes. Galloway defends better than Baines. There's no question about it.

Yet strangely we conceded at a far higher rate per game when Galloway played instead of Baines, must be a wierd coincidence that eh?

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Baines is in the twilght of his career. Still has purpose but the wily Koeman's know full well the experience Galloway gets the better and Tony Pulis will be a asset in his development.

When Galloway came in last season he was MOTM many times so much so he kept Baines out untill he got injured badly, He has all the makings of a future with the blues, it was not a free loan it was wages and. Million in what Newcastle offered us the only thing Newcastle wanted was a right to buy clause Hence he went to WBA for a season - personally I would have liked it to be a call back loan in case we need him!

Call back loans don't exist anymore mate, changed the rules on them

And that would be down to one player would it rather than the defence as a whole.

There's facts, then there's factoids.

Nice bit of play there from the lad. Good run and tested the keeper.

It makes you shake your head and wonder why we loaned him out with no cover at left back better than him????

Yet if the stats said it was the other way around Dave, you would be quoting them left right and centre and don't lie that you wouldn't be.

We may well have a recall option although I've no idea. I like the kid but obviously Koeman ranks him as third choice so the loan will benefit him.

You said defending but not any other attribute. Said it all.

Galloway needs PL exp to make further step up.

Fascinating

And why is it that, factually speaking, Brendan Galloway is an irrefutably better defender than Leigton Baines?
