Ezri Konsa

[SamTheMouse]

This is the season when he's stepped up from being merely good to absolutely superb.

[Mellin]

Is he now above Mellberg, Ugo and Laursen in the Villa CB rankings?

Behind God obviously.

Not above Laursen. He's the best I've seen since McGrath. Mellberg is a big personal favourite. Ehiogu, maybe.

He has been the bridesmaid for too long to be mentioned alongside them in my mind. Couple more seasons at this level, then we'll talk.

I put him above all three now, because he is consistent and rarely I…… don’t want to jinx it, unlike Laursen.
Solid 8 every week.

Definitely, I've been a big critic of his but he has improved out of all recognition. That's after a rotten start to the season too. Deserves a lot of credit. Has played with Mings, Lindelof and Torres and defensively we have been strong with all three. That's on him. Never going to be strongest in the air but making better decisions all the time. Didn't see the Palace game but Mateta humiliated him at Wembley last season, fair turnaround in fortunes to keep a clean sheet in the circumstances. The arm waving whinging at others seems to have stopped too

Yeah, Lauren's injuries are a big negative and were a real shame. Konsa plays every week, so there's an argument for it. I've always thought Laursen was the best defender in the league, which was some going at the time. For me, his level trumps everything, but I do understand that if you're only on the pitch 50% of the time that's a problem.

Ezri Konsa has the best pass completion percentage by a defender in Europe’s top 5 leagues this season at 95.8%.

Of which 99% to Torres and Martinez. 😀

If he had a bit more technical chops when it came to touch and distribution, he'd be pretty much perfect.

[Demitri_C]

What happened witb konsa and the fans? Anyone who was there know?

[Skipper_The_Eyechild]

Doesn't seem all that difficult to figure out. Just an exchange of pleasantries.

It wasn't  a difficult  question was what was said?

Did our fans abuse him for coming to clap or was there something else? No villa player should be abused but konsa of all people? He certainly  hasnt been the worst player either

[cdbearsfan]

Lots of our away fans are coked up morons.

[AV82EC]

Lots of our away fans are coked up morons.

After attending last night, couldn’t agree more.

[Mellin]

Yeah, some twat will have been running his mouth off and Konsa's reacted at an emotional time. Good on him. I've never blamed Richards for Wycombe, either. The latter handled himself really well.

[cdbearsfan]

Yeah, Richards was in the right at Wycombe, too.
