Vive_La_Villa Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) The is the transfer thread. Got caught out by all the Tammy talk on here. As for Konsa, I think he has a bright future with us. Really like him. Edited July 22, 2020 by Vive_La_Villa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didn't know such a basic stat how can you determine whether he is Prem quality or not? I like his overall game-play and also think he can still develop. I would suggest his age, and goals and performances for us in the champ are enough to make him a quality signing. Was really hoping that we made that one permanent at the start of the season but was a long-shot. Maybe now Chelsea can spend and provided we retain our PL status we could make a bid... Clearly would not be cheap though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Saw someone on Facebook talk about him potentially being a brilliant DM, got to say, I Agree. (Before all the , if he is a great CB and it ain't broke why fix it etc). He is very good on the ball, can drive forward with decent pace, reads the game well, has a good pass on him. I actually have said I think his only limitation at CB is that his physique is a little small. I'd be interested in seeing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiago Silva, Puyol, Ramos, Baresi, Beckenbauer, Carvalho, Cannavaro, Koeman, De boer, Bobby Moore, mascherano (especially) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 This isn't the 1990's where every team had a battering ram CF. Konsa is bigger than most strikers he comes up against. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 The stint at RB has helped his game. He is better in his individual battles now. His ability to bring the ball out of the back is going to be beneficial to us. Moment of the season when he gave that look to Mings "wtf are you doing" just with a glare vs Everton I think.. Potential captain. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul514 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 He could be a good player but he isn't yet, he should be our third choice centre back and bring in a first choice centre back who is even better than Mings. Effectively this would lock up our central defence positions and we can just concentrate elsewhere. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will never be good enough if he doesn’t play a big part in his development is due to his game time recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted July 27, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted July 27, 2020 Not sure I'm able to read correctly - Konsa is Villa, he has grown as we have, he is a key part of survival. Of course he stays, he 'could' be a major player next season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 He os still young but you can see the potential. Yeah he will make a mistake or two but i think he can be a excellent cb for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MaVilla Posted August 1, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2020 Konsa made the u21 whoscored premiership team of the season. His cb u21 partner was tomori. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Southgate was what you're describing. Mascherano IMO just ended up at CB and never really knew how to play there. Konsa attitude really impressed me this season. He responded really well to the (unfair) public bollocking from Smith at Newcastle as well. Real strong determination in him. I wouldn't argue with seeing him at DM at times, he's lacking nothing. He was good at RB immediately after lockdown, very composed in tight areas. I think he'll start at CB in the new season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Smith knows him well and his character that it was the rocket he needed and wouldnt be pissed at it. After that he was one of our best players, some of his crosses at right back were delicious Beckham be proud of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoMkali Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Just did some quick calculations on points per game to see who was most valuable to us over the course of the season and konsa came in first with 1.08ppg. I excluded Jack, Luiz and Mings because they all played so many games that their numbers are all pretty ropey and we already know they are our best 3 players. The list goes like this: 1) Konsa 1.08 2) Heaton 1.05 3)Guilbert 1.04 4) Hourihane 1.4 (rounded up) 5) Targett/Wesley 1.0 6) Mings 0.97 7) Nakamba 0.93 Trez 0.91 9) Elmo 0.89 10) El ghazi 0.85 11) Davis 0.83 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
