Konate

[MomoWASright]

He can win trophies here next season.

From a strategic perspective, if the club cannot secure his commitment to a new deal before the transfer window closes, they should seriously consider selling him. Allowing a valuable asset to run down his contract and leave for free would besignificant financial and sporting loss.

Is there any actual evidence that it's "junk" other than that the guy was once employed by a company owned by Murdoch? Cos that probably applies to 90% of journalists.

But he looks so smart and professional surely he cannot be bullshitting ?

Eh...wants to go right now. Players are saying I don't want go, maybe next year, and Klopp of all people was fine with that. I've never seen so many senior players leave for free like under Klopp.

How many actually Left Klopp after? Can? Gini left because we didn’t make a suitable offer. Trying to recall, don’t remember anu increase in this.

Moreno, Lallana, Ox, Firmino, Keita...there's probably more

He's writing for the Guardian and generally they don't go out of their way to just make up shit. I wouldn't say it couldn't be BS, but I certainly wouldn't just write it off.

So you are on fence, and I take little comfort from that

That’s natural. None we wanted to keep at end of their contract. Think that is more FSG policy than anything else.

I can only remember Can whom we offerex renewal terms too…

It's also a bad example.

If we are getting guehi then its because we are looking to get rid of konate. No way would guehi coming in to be 3rd choice.

Guehi plays on the left, right? Wouldn't it mean we could finally rest Virgil without a massive drop off in quality? Personally I think there's more than enough games next season for all three to feature heavily, although I'd want Virgil to start almost every game of importance, we also have to remember Konate is made of paper mache.

Sure Guehi would get every game at Crystal Palace, but he'd get much higher quality games at LFC, and he'd get a lot of them. I feel an ambitious CB like I'm sure he is, of high quality like he definitely is, would feel confident in claiming a starting role here in such a situation.
