abdulaziz1 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 I think Konsa is the one to play with him in a highline. Yes we lose much by Mings presence but even Mings needed Konsa’s pace. I think we need to be more careful against the top teams, especially away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Apparently: " Pau Torres' 117 accurate passes against Crystal Palace is the most recorded by an Aston Villa player in a league match since we started collecting Opta data in 2009/10 " 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't even bring the distance he progressed the ball into the conversation. I want my defenders to defend. /s 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bro mings is way quicker in recovery than Konsa. Konsa is very fast in a straight line but he's not agile and slow turning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 (edited) 9 hours ago, Zatman said: Main thing is the errors are fixable andI trust him and Unai will work on that. I think Mings next to him is the huge loss and maybe just needs organisation and leadership Vidic for example struggled when he moved to the Premier League, so did Jaap Stam for a bit 7 hours ago, spiezels said: Him and mings together would have been absolutely colossal. Konsa has been unbelievable so far this season IMO. Long way off of course, but I don't see him dropping out of the "best XI" too often. Wonder if we'd have Mings or Torres on the right of the central two? I think Mings may be better on the left as he can look after the flank defensively. Putting Torres out left behind a super advanced full back could expose him a bit. Edited September 19, 2023 by Tomaszk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we was a clinical finisher he would be at Real Madrid or City unfortunately. We have to accept player limitations sometimes otherwise we wouldn't be battling for European scraps we would be winning the tournaments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicon Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Easy to see what he brings to the team when he's not playing. We lacked an organiser and someone to take initiative at the back today. He's become an important player already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andym Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 He was good, made some great blocks, tackles and interceptions and one random stray pass in the first few mins aside, on the ball as excellent as ever. There was one big crunching sliding tackle in the 2nd half in particular that was pretty vital as if he lost it Chelsea would have been in, so nice to see he can get stuck in if needed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
