Fantastic footballer - makes us such a better team with him in the side

Hopefully we can get him to sign a new contract this summer

Completely agree Sid. His out balls are something else, but he organises the defence as well. We need to keep hold of him

Awful sitter, straight back to the goalie? C'mon Pau.

An assist for Ollie’s 2nd  ;)

In fairness, a great save

A big part of why he's playing so well this year is that Konsa has stopped being so passive in how he defends. They now look a much more natural pairing after a couple of years where they left us a little susceptible to long balls.

Noticeably physically stronger this season, too, which has helped eliminate one of the methods used by opponents to counter him.

So many brilliant performances, but he is utterly imperious.

Took the piss in the second half. Offside line works so much better when he's there.

It says a lot bout his application that while his attacking threat hasn't dimmed, his defensive levels have become outstanding.

To think Spain picked Porro ahead of him for the World Cup. Nuts decision. He's vital for us and the way we play.

Good, he can have a decent rest this summer ahead of our CL challenge.

I'm not complaining but Pau would be justified in doing so.
