“That is what you want. You want players that are disappointed and frustrated because they want to play, of course, but that they show that in a good way and are ready to help when they come on the pitch, I thought we had a good response in that regard,” the Englishman continued.
Potter continued to wax lyrical about Gallagher, “The group has been really good from the start and I am delighted for Conor, it’s a fantastic strike.”

The 22-year-old opted to not celebrate against Crystal Palace where he had a successful loan spell last season and his current manager respected that decision.
“He has a lot of respect for Crystal Palace, you can see that from his reaction. But he’s a Chelsea player now and it was a great goal for us,” Potter said.
