Paul Konchesky

[piscinin]

He should really be ashamed of himself.

 

I agree, but I have a much better view from up here on my high horse!

[Whelan]

As I say, it is all about timing

Funny to see how a cheap signing is viewed differently within one year.

 

on Kyriakos

 

Distressed and sort of disgusted that we have fallen so fucking far as to make panic signings like this...

 

on Konchesky

 

What you're failing to see is that we don't need a Konchesky for six years, we only need him for 1/2... We've Robinson in the reserves, and Konchesky is backup for Aurelio(who is perma-crocked).

 

Poulsen isn't necessary for a while, but we could afford him as a "just incase Masch is sold" type of signing.

To be fair, Aurellio will get injured himself without Konchesky lending a hand.

Why must you always think badly of people? Konchesky is healing him.

Cause Konchesky has seriously evil looking, serial killer eyes!

So did Mother Theresa....

She was a right cow though.

[Dr Arthur De Sabre]

Ooooff it's all gone a bit Julian Dicks on here, apologies to all the Julians & dicks

[TheResonator]

He's a player Fulham are happy to part ways with. Need we say much more? I take it we have no chance of signing Figueroa?

 

We maynor want to after the sort of drubbings have had in the prem this year.

So do I....and "apparantly" I eat babies....

[Mojo]

never really watched him, but he has scored some memorable goals. Seems like a more aggressive version of Riise, which is not all that bad when compared with what has happened to our left side since he left

[dirk grout]

It seems that roy knows hes only gonna be here for 1 or 2 seasons hence the age of players he is buying. It appears that all long term planning has gone out the window. Another masterstroke from our wonderful board as it makes perfect financial sense to sign players with no sell on value when you are skint.

What's your point?

 

Sociedad were happy to let Alonso go in 2004, Wilem II happy to let Sammi go in 1999.

 

They must be terrible, then.

 

There are good arguments for not signing him, THIS is not one of them.

[Arl arse]

I fear for our season.

[MLB]

I was okay with signing Konchesky when I thought he would be back up to someone like Salcido, but the fact that we are signing him and Fulham are signing Salcido is shameful. Why the fuck are we signing the worse player? Seriously? I've got to be honest, I have completely lost faith in Hodgson's ability in the transfer market and I am really worried about the kind of season we are going to have. He will of course be judged on results, but the players he has signed and attempted to sign have already got me hoping that he'll only be here for a very brief period. He is filling our squad with mediocre, ageing journeymen who stand NO CHANCE WHATSOEVER of improving us. That is the scary thing. We finished seventh last season, and with the exception of Cole - who I don't personally count as a Hodgson signing - we haven't signed a single player who will improve us. Scary, scary shit.

Couldn't have put it better.

[Roy the Rover]

Sorry Roy I like you and all that, but please make Konchesky FUCK OFF. Nowhere near Liverpool standard.

Alonso was around 21/22 when we signed him, and he rejected Real Madrid for us.

 

Sami also was around 23/24, and he had a brilliant reputation in Holland.

 

Konchesky, on the other hand, is around 31 and terribly shit.

[Irishlad]

I want the left back who can't get in the PSV team. He was well brilliant at the world cup so he must be better then Konchesky. My four games of watching the lad means I know better then Roy on this matter.

[Unrighteous]

Funny to see how a cheap signing is viewed differently within one year.

 

I think it's totally different. Kyrgiakos was signed when we were being linked to 'bigger' signings. We had just let Sami walk away, and there is no way that the Greek was going to improve upon Sami.

 

Insua is an absolute horrorshow at leftback, and Konchesky would actually be a pretty decent step up from him.

[dennis tooth]

Evra, Ashley Cole, Sagna, Ivanovic, forget those guys yes let's get Konchesky in.

 

I'd rather Richardson of even Oshea, awful, unimaginative naive signing unless the aim to to finish above Fulham this year.

[codyscott]

Mark Hughes stated today that Konchesky & Schwartzer are going nowhere.

[gkmacca]

Did he? I only heard him mumble something like 'at the moment nothing much is happening'.
