Sell Konsa over Luiz everyday … he’s a fantastic player but easily replaceable 

Sell both.

10 clubs to chose from, for a loan?

Don't know what he meant. What he actually said was like "it's really exciting to have more than two handfuls of teams to choose from, for the first time in my career". That's how I remember it at least.

What have you heard?
How much money we getting for him?

He was interviewed on Finnish TV yesterday during half-time of the Portugal-Finland game. He said he was excited to have more than 10 clubs to choose from, and Villa wasn't mentioned in the interview, unless I missed it. I was left with a strong feeling that he's gone. He wants to be a starter and he has good options.

Yeah, he came across extremely well in that Exeter video IMO. Think he'll go on to have a very good career. 

The one I'm talking about just aired on Finnish TV at half time of Portugal-Finland game. He spoke Finnish, so I think I got a bit more from it than when he speaks English.

He didn't deny interest from big Scotland clubs, on the contrary, he almost named one club.

I care quite a lot about this one, and rumours that it's mostly because I started his thread are not accurate and should be ignored . . .

Anyway, given the season he had and his stated desire to play for us in the PL and the - AIUI - quite high regard he's held in at the club, I doubt he'll be leaving in a way that leaves us no options, ie I'd expect either a Championship loan or a sale with some kind of long-term option on our end. 

I hope so. I saw him speak thougthfully for the first time, and really liked his personality. He wouldn't melt under pressure. He said he was just a kid a year ago, but now is grown up, a man. Likes to learn from Hradecky too.

Bye bye Viljami. I think you'll become a very reliable keeper at the minimum. Very calm and intelligent young man.

Not sure if anyone cares, but Viljami Sinisalo just said on TV that he has more than 10 teams to choose from for next season. I didn't catch the whole thing, but no mention of Villa at all. I think he'll leave, which is a mistake.

It will be difficult to retain top4. 5-6 will still be a good result, if we can reach it.

Good badge. Me like.

Great news for us!

I've had it with this season for now. Villa don't care, why should I. See you in September.

My only worry is we are on a seriously downward momentum. 

The strong finish to last season set us up for this one IMO, I just hope the opposite doesn't happen.

It's never good to end the season poorly. I also agree on your point about last season. I actually think last season was better than this one, more enjoyable and set up the offseason in a more more optimistic way.

I'm surprised people care so much about this game. 

Top teams care about every game. Lesser teams don't.

Thank God we won’t see Lenglet and Chambers again. Hopefully Carlos will be gone too and some new full backs who can both defend and attack.

Would be nice if someone in the team could defend.

CBs a step behind. Again.

This game is very exciting.

Pen?

If we can get Diaby going next season, we'll be scoring for fun.

Good pace from Diaby, and a good save. 

He's so good, and yet so frustrating.

It seems dumb to say after a season like we've had, but Unai has a lot to do in the summer regarding our defense.
