    I am away working in Las Vegas at the moment and my American colleagues have noted that I am not functioning as they would usually expect, and it’s all because I’m looking at this blooming thread morning, noon and night.
    The diet of BudLite, pizza and pot noodle is not helping either.

    You should switch to fish fingers.

    why wouldn't they be, they are still under contract

    If you filled in on a secondment to the role above yours and the management at your place deemed it fit to replace the official holder of that role, thus pushing you back into your original role, you'd generally go back to your normal role.

    Lee and Johnny have likely continued until they're given the perm role or the seconded roles are filled permanently.
    they were 'upgraded' until the end of the season, the season has now ended so surely revert to previous roles

    I was told a few months ago by very good source that Konsa had already been sold. But I don't know who to.

    Everton offered 1.8 m for Konsa in Jan, he wasn't allowed to be sold because of the ongoing negotiations with several parties.
    I think that's the key point. If negotiations are at a stage where papers are lodged with the EFL, Roland is not going to be able to flog our best asset and keep the money without it affecting the deal.

    Why are people slating Konsa?

    A number of Prem clubs are after him and he has represented his country at all levels.

    He has played right back, centre back and holdig mid for us. And he is seen by many as surpus to requirements ?

    Based on what?

    He isn’t Joe Gomez? Fair enough, but Gomez is and was a unique talent.

    Konsa is a fantastic player in a number of positions. He will leave us soon but let’s not pretend he isn’t Prem quality.

    He isn't Prem quality...yet. He might get there but plenty of players have represented their countries at various levels but haven't made the expected progress in their development that was hoped.

    He is a decent young player with some promise, but that's all at this stage. He makes lots of errors and has failed to nail down a position permanently in a league one side (so far).

    I think saying he is Prem quality is an over exaggeration at this point in time.
    I think he is. He has played a number of positions that shows his versatility but means he hasn’t nailed down a particular role, which is no fault of his own.

    In my opinion he is a potentially excellent holding midfielder.

    Physically he is good enough, I believe he will have a successful Prem career
    Well here's a question. If you think that Konsa is Prem quality, do you think both Bauer and Pearce are too? Because when all three were fit he failed to dislodge either of them to take what is his natural position at centre back.
    Konsa is younger.
    Konsa plays additional positions.
    Konsa is a proper footballer. Better technique, faster, better passer of the ball.
    Bauer and Pearce are tougher thus better suited to league 1 football but anyone thinking premier league clubs would look at the over Konsa has got rocks in their head.

    He may not be prem class at the moment but at 20/21 years of age he has more than enough time to prove his worth

    He could at least tell us what he’s having for dinner. At least give us something Jimbo ffs. He’s in Amsterdam at the moment (I think) probably feasting on a curtain of beef.

    I wouldn't disagree. I was merely replying to a comment that said he is premier league class NOW. Which he isn't.
