What are peoples thoughts on the posibility that we may lose konchesky. He had a good season and was my stand out player
There are certainly only a hand full of decent Left Backs, even the great Martin had problems filling this position
I think he would be a significant loss to the team and I don't think its certain that there will not be interest from a lower Premiership club

I think I've missed a story here. Why would we be losing Konchesky?

Only to England.

KTF - No, no story just thought the guy had a good season and may be on the radar for that difficult RB spot
It would be our loss, just flagging it up as no one seems to have considered the posibility

Sorry LB spot

Ah ok. Yeah he has had an excellent season.
But fortunately I think any team who doesn't already have a LB as good or better than Konchesky wouldn't be willing to pay his wages. Same goes for Nugent.

For me what’s made Konchesky such a good player this season is his consistency and energy. To play for a top Premier League club he really needs that extra ingredient of quality (particularly with the final ball), which is probably why he failed at Liverpool.
I can’t see many top Championship clubs competing with us for him so we’d only really lose him to a low end Premier League club, which, at his age, would be unlucky.

Joby - KTF I did not think we would lose him to a championship side- I draw comfort from the fact that you both beleive he will be with us next season

Sven's master-plan.
Bring in average players on massively inflated wages and you will keep most of the squad together for years.
Not good enough for Premiership sides to be interested and Championship teams can't afford them. Genius!
Or it might backfire and put us into administration!

Prawn,
You really are full of the joys of spring aren't you?

Defensively suspect, probably not better enough than others to justify the extra wages. I like him, and attack wise very good, but that's not what you need in this league so would probably move him on.
