Ezri Konsa

[Chip Butty 111]

England's best defender atm for me. An absolute colossus this season. Reminds me of Mcgrath sometimes with his movement and his touch. Tough as old boots also and takes no nonsense as that McAllister found out the other week.

When Dean Smith said a good while back, that Konsa was "a Rolls Royce of a player", he wasn't kidding around.

I reckon he should have taken Slabhead in the squad.

[Brazilian Villain]

He's too good for England, should have taken the option to play for Portugal if he fancied winning something at international level.

Just imagine how good he'd be if he were coached by Unai, and Roberto Martínez.

His reaction was exactly why he didn't take him, he wouldn't start and clearly believes he should, the prick.

Just imagine how good he'd be if he were coached by Unai, and Roberto Martínez.

And if he was doubly-coached by Austin MacPhee.

They'd be calling him 'Der Konsa'.

The Guardian reporting Arsenal are expressing an interest in Ezri. Apparently, William Saliba's back injury may need surgery, which Arsenal are assessing. 

[eye digress]

Apparently they "need cover" and so are considering Ezri!

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

I don't care about all the stupid speculation, like this one about him going to Man U.
But this line did catch my eye.

Meanwhile, the 28-year-old central defender is well settled in England, and he could make an immediate impact at Manchester United if he joined the club.

[Villafirst]

If they need cover, surely John Stones on a free is the logical answer?

[Dogtanian]

Caught Offside are clickbait bullshit merchants and a waste of everybody’s time.

[Rigadon]

Caughtofffside is literally made up stuff.  The Guardian not so much.

[PeterWithesShin]

I'm not convinced Ezri is settled in England.

[Ozzjim]

Has anyone credible said Konsa is off then?
