The Ezri Konsa Thread

Cant believe that for a second. Gerrard was calling him a best a few weeks ago. Only way he moves on is if there is some contract dispute and he wont re-sign
He’s under contract with us until 2026.
His last couple of games have been below the standard we have come to expect and the media leap on situations like that. We would have to shell out silly money to improve on Ezri and Gomes would definitely not be an upgrade.
 
Never been a member of the Konsa is way better than Mings club, because Mings's all round game is better in spite of the mistakes. But Konsa is good and will get better. I'd ignore the recent loss of form; the whole team has lost form.

Konsa+Mings at the centre of defence is our best option. No way would I sell him.
 
its paper talk, one of the big six have dropped a hint that theyre looking at him and got the papers to stir things up

i wouldnr see him being able to leave....now mings on the other hand.... ill drive him
 
Seeing Konsa yesterday made me realise how much I dislike him as a player.

Constantly screws up this season and ill discipline, what's worse is that when he does mess it up he starts complaining and gesticulating to everyone else despite the fact that he's the one that messed it up in the first place.

Another one who needs to be gotten rid off as he's simply not good enough.

People were describing him as a Roll’s Royce of a player not so long ago. More of a Reliant Robin just lately, or should that be Unreliant Robin.

I wouldn't get rid of him. He's had two good (at minimum) seasons here. He has had a poor season this time around though, he wasn't performing that well under Smith earlier in the season and he has fallen apart entirely under SG.

Be that as it may, I think there's a good player there and at 24 years old I don't think it would be a good idea to get shot of him.
 
He's had a poor season but he's far from alone on that front and far from the worst.
 
Absolutely ridiculous suggestions of getting rid . For fucks sake.

Our best defender for 2 seasons for fucking fucks sake . Having a big dip which coincides with the whole team having a one which is very much due to the clueless tactics that have completely exposed the defence.
 
Emporer’s new clothes for me I’m afraid. Can’t do the basics like head the ball away, never has. Can’t get off the ground. Flatters to deceive with ball at feet. A soft touch. If he was any good in the air he’d be popping a few in from corners. His only chance of making it with us at a higher level is if he can play alongside the decent central defender that Gerrard has to bring in. Same can be said for Mings but at the moment I’d drop Konsa first. He’s falling down the list of being a potential England candidate to boot.

What time scale is all your observations based around?
 
Been a big fan of Konsa, big dip in form this season but all players have peaks and troughs…he‘s not suddenly turned into a poor player overnight. Harsh in the extreme to suggest ‘get rid’! Plenty of other candidates to see the back of before Ezri.
 
Just the last three seasons. We had a decent run last season when everyone was winning away because of no crowds, not reality without pressure atmosphere brings. Has he ever headed a corner in?

Definitely got one against Leicester which is at least one more than the 6ft 5in Mings has headed in
