The Englishman spent the 21/22 season on loan at Palace, where he quickly won over the Palace faithful. The midfielder was the man of the match on his latest return to south London, scoring twice to lift the Blues to victory. Gallagher hit the back of the net to equalise early in the second half, before bagging what turned out to be the winner in injury time. After netting both of his goals, Gallagher wheeled away in celebration – something that not every player does against their former club.

One wrote on X: “It was also nice to see Gallagher really celebrating after scoring against Palace!” “Conor Gallagher is actually class. And fair play to him for celebrating. He owes Palace nothing and he quite rightly celebrated,” a second posted.
While a third said: “Credit to Gallagher for celebrating against he team he’s played for!” *What do you think about footballers celebrating against former clubs? That’s part of the reason why he doesn’t want to celebrate.
