Konsa's a fucking great player and as fans we would do well to remember that.

Even Martinez has made a few errors this season, it happens.  Not many centre backs I'd swap Ezri for.

I’m not sure anyone is saying get rid of him. It was a comment on last night, where he was really poor.
I'm just saying lets not blow it our of proportion.

The same can be said for Watkins, you'd do well to remember that

Was Konsa still carrying the injury he went off with in the last match? He took no part in the match against Molde so perhaps he wasn’t fully fit? If so, maybe he shouldn’t have been playing.

He did just seem to be jogging around and not really busting a gut.

Ezri was poor again today and not great last week, lucky to be picked at the moment especially as Chambers hadn't done anything wrong to be dropped.

Which would be worrying. Thought we had a gem last season. Another that’s regressed considerably this year.

He’s not at his best recently but it wasn’t long ago we were slating Southgate for not naming him in the England squad.

The game changes after 3 minutes and that was down to him.
I think his performance is indicative so a significant worry.

You could probably name any of them SHQ but generally for me, it was the lack of engagement, the poor header, not being tough enough with Kane etc.  If you watch all four goals back, you will see several errors from several players but Konsa was also in the thick of it.

Well first to me was just hitting Cash in the balls and ball rebounding to Son who finished it well, second was a very well placed shot from Kuluveski, third was Son moving early and getting away from Cash and fourth was a cutback with our heads dropped.

Chambers was unlucky to lose his place though, that's a fair point considering we were keeping clean sheets with him in there.

He headed the ball to Kane for the first.
He put in a useless challenge for the second and took himself out of the game  and was caught in no mans land for the 3rd.

I respect your views but there are elements in all four goals where many of the players, including Konsa could have done so much better.  Perform better with the first header, send the ball wide for example, and Kane doesn't get the shot off.  Bad day at the office as he is usually much more reliable.
