The England midfielder believes the manager’s distinctive methods have driven their recent surge away from the relegation zone.
After a vital 2-1 win over Aston Villa, the former Chelsea player pointed to the Italian’s focus on individual improvement as key to their turnaround in form.
"The gaffer has been brilliant with us. He has brought the team together," Gallagher told reporters.
"He is really worked on players individually with one-to-one meetings and one-to-one chats, trying to get that belief and confidence back in the players. He has done that with me and it has made a big difference. I know he has done that with a lot of the other lads."
