Quote from: Clark W Griswold on July 12, 2019, 01:47:49 PMI would have thought it'll be Mings starting alongside either Chester or Engels, i reckon Konsa has come in as a longer term project despite the fee, and will be the long term replacement for Chester. It's probably a case of getting them while you can with the younger ones and allowing them a decent settling in period.Chester had better not start. He was principally responsible (Nyland blamed very unfairly) for our 4-1 defeat at Sheffield United on 1st September. How would he cope against the likes of Spurs? We should get rid whilst we can still get a few pennies for him.

He may start or he may not but that's a ridiculous and very unfair comment. Paul McGrath played in a few matches where we shipped 4 or 5, maybe we should remember him for those games as well.

He's married to a Scouser. I share his pain.
He's a Walker brother!
I would like to think with Chester that we keep him so that he can get the medical/physio. treatment to get up to match fitness and then see where it goes from there. It's the least we owe him and shows loyalty.
