I think Konsa moving on would potentially be on both our interests. He's been brilliant but form was patchy second half of the season and he's too slow on the ball for us to truly play how Emery sets us up, especially without Torres.

I know the lad got sent off yesterday, but I quite like the look of Nathan Ngoy of Belgium. Very comfortable on the ball and like Torres, he can spray a pass around very well. Very harsh for the red card I thought.

I think he's one of the best defenders in the world on the ball personally

I think moving him on is only in our interests if it means we keep someone less replaceable (Rogers) and gives us room to sign others.

Konsa to Liverpool wouldn'r shock me as a partner to VVD and long term replacement. It unfortunately won't stop the Rogers to x club rumours

Maybe, but I don't use social media and couldn't give a toss about the bullshit rumours.

We would probably have run the rule over him, when we played Lille. Can’t say I noticed him.

selling one of our first team players will leave us weaker in the short-term as its unlikely we'll be able to find an instant replacement that can hit the ground running. 

Rogers and Konsa would both be very difficult to replace - so either would have to be for very big money for us to have half a chance.

In fairness from memory Ozzjim said Rogers was anomaly who’s much better statistically than he actually is, so fair to say he has a pretty high bar!

I’d say losing either Konsa or Rogers would leave two very big, and difficult, gaps to fill.

He got sent off and possibly cost his side a chance to progress precisely due to his lack of comfort on the ball under pressure.

what pisses me off no end is we will continue to have our best players linked to others at the top end of the game and we will rarely ever be in the market for the best players on the planet as long as the financial rules restrict us.

Just ignore it, it's irrelevant. Things will change if we keep winning.

I won't link because of the source, but this is always good to read.

Daily Mail Sport can reveal that Sawiris is determined to ignore all interest in Rogers unless he receives offers well above £100million. He looks at the fee of about £120m Manchester City might pay for Elliot Anderson, and the £100m-plus price tag for Liverpool target Yan Diomande, and sees no reason why he should offer a discount on Rogers.

Hopefully it's right, as it's the sensible approach

How long left on Konsa’s contract? Two years? Ideally he signs a new one this summer or there’s a risk the club will look to cash in whilst his stock is high.

Unless we’re going to break some rule or other by not selling (and breaking that rule woild have a big enough impact ) then I’m sure that’s the approach we will take.  If Anderson is 100m, and grealish and rice - it seem totally reasonable to have him in the same bracket
