Sam Gallagher has left a very positive impression. After leaving Blackburn Rovers, he wanted to make a quality leap to a club with Stoke City's rich history. Unfortunately, in his debut, he suffered an injury that kept him out for nearly two months.
Due to this concern, the club signed former Leicester City forward Tom Cannon. At just 21 years old, Cannon is seen as a promising talent. He joined Stoke City on loan and has already shown his quality, playing in 5 matches and scoring 4 goals in just one game. This impressive stat suggests that Cannon is gaining confidence for the future with the squad.
Looking Ahead to the Match Against Norwich City
Both forwards featured in the last two matches, leaving positive impressions, and they are expected to continue their good form in the next match against Norwich City on October 19th. It will be important for these two players to complement each other to establish a strong goal-scoring partnership for the team. Narcis Pelach has emphasized how the team’s mentality is improving, which is key to working effectively throughout the season and making a strong showing in the EFL Championship.
