He affirmed the team's dedication, stating, “We definitely are putting the effort in. I know how much it means to all the boys.” Gallagher acknowledged the team's youthful composition and relative lack of experience in the Premier League but emphasized their ongoing growth and unity.
Gallagher admitted, “As you’ve seen this season, we’ve had a lot of ups and a lot of downs as well.” He acknowledged the team's need for improvement and their collective commitment to reaching greater heights. Despite the disappointing performance, Gallagher remained focused on learning from the mistakes, rectifying errors, and preparing for future challenges.
