Conor Gallagher admits why he picked Crystal Palace over Leeds

Conor Gallagher has revealed why he picked Crystal Palace over Leeds United. On Saturday the 21-year-old, who made a good impression on his Crystal Palace debut, was also the man of the match in the 0-0 draw against Brentford. The Chelsea loanee has admitted that Patrick Vieira was the main reason for his club choice.
"I liked what the manager Patrick Vieira was saying. I feel like it suited me very nicely and like I could express myself the best here,"  he said.   "He wants me to do what I do best, which is basically all I want to hear. He knows the type of player I am. He knows that I want to get up and down the pitch and just play with freedom. That definitely helped persuade me"
The midfielder also outlined his manager's great tactics.
"There has been a lot of tactical sessions – team-wise. I have not been here too long, but I have got the whole season to learn from him.   "Obviously he was a top player back in the day and he is a top manager as well, so I am very excited to work with him this season."
