Pau Torres

Konsa has little confidence with the ball at his feet, he always squares it to Mings to do something proactive with it and with good reason. He's not technically gifted as a dribbler nor distributor.

[Dante Lavelli]

Playing Konsa at right back in an Emery team who likes his full backs mobile, adventurous and Bombing  forward is probably one of the most ridiculous suggestions and things I’ve ever read on here

Cash himself has said Emery doesn’t want him bombing forward.

When is he actually signing?

I’m glad someone else is paying attention.

When is he actually signing?

When he's back from holiday apparently.

eastie said Pau was at his Grandma's house this weekend and it's his niece's birthday on Tuesday so he will come to Birmingham on Wednesday.

Surely people living in Spain don't need to go on holiday

He’s only in Rhyl.

Why on earth would we push Konsa out to right back?

Arsenal did it all last season, with White at FB  becoming a 3rd CB when they were in possession; with the LB moving into midfield.

Didn’t Zinchenco (sp?) generally rotate into CM?  The Emery version means Moreno becomes a winger.

I hate to give him credit but these do feel like variations on Guardiola’s tactics with Lahm at Bayern.

White is rubbish as a FB.

There was though a great improvement in this aspect of Konsa's play in the last few months of the season.

He is apparently on top of the world after winning the Donkey Derby in Conwy yesterday.

There's a marvellous bit in Sir Graham's book where he tells all the players to bring their passports and they all board a coach. He takes them to Pontins instead.
