Gallagher: «You could see by Mauricio Pochettino playing me every game and showing his trust in me»

Midfielder Conor Gallagher has spoken out about his transfer from Chelsea to Atletico Madrid.

He addressed the notion that Chelsea sold him partly because he did not fit Enzo Maresca's technical model. 

«I don’t think that’s true personally. I think last season I had a good season with Chelsea as you could see by Mauricio Pochettino playing me every game and showing his trust in me. And the fans appreciated what I did on the pitch too», told Daily Mail. 

Last season, Gallagher made 50 appearances across all competitions, during which he scored seven goals and provided nine assists.
