    Happy New Year RM.

    I see Foley is on the bench, so he must have had his deal extended.

    Deal ends on 5 Jan I think.
  • Few fans responding appear disappointed

    Good, think he'd be a worthwhile addition. Great engine on him.

    I like Konsa in midfield. I was baffled that Slade didn't try him (or Aribo, or RCC) there earlier in the season. Very good technique and good passer of the ball. According to KR Crofts will sit with Konsa and Aribo in front of him. I'm hoping that Konsa can provide more defensive cover, allowing Crofts to push on a bit.

    I fancy us for this, but we must have a lively, energetic start with the second game in three days.

    Also worth noting no Lookman with no explanation from the club. Sad as I was hoping he'd at least be on the bench today with the prospect of the fans giving him a good send off.

    Would be happy with 6 points in Jan with the teams we've got to play.
    Think if were going to have a go at play offs will need 9 points

    Uh-oh. Got a touch of the Karels about it this. Central defender in midfield, left back up front. At least the back four is solid

    Konsa has played a number of times for the Under 23s in midfield.

    Don't MK Dons know that you're supposed to treat your fans with contempt and assume they're gullible. The player has come down with an illness, he's not in transfer discussions.

    Chicksen is more of a midfielder and Konsa played midfield loads for youth teams, so not really

    He's not really though is he? He's played 87 of his 102 games as a defender, mostly at LB and only 15 in midfield. He's versatile enough to play left mid but being pushed right up to left wing is going to be unfamiliar to him. As for Konsa, I'm always against playing youth players outside of their best positions. Konsa has also played at RB for the youth teams but he looks very uncomfortable there now. It might all work, I'm just not a fan of fiddling with players positions, never worked for Powell either
