Yevhen Konoplyanka [Sevilla]

[kev776]

So would Konoplyanka! Fast as ****, very skilful, brilliant dribbler, can spot a pass, ace set pieces...he'd fit us like a glove.

This.

[Norbs]

**** him!

And if Spurs do want him and pay over the odds in fee and wages, then they are welcome to him, we'll have plenty of similar and possibly better options come summer. imo.

Absolutely. Wouldn't want him replacing any of our forward line at the moment anyways

[Leyton388]

Konoplyanka is a quality player and he would be prefect for us but unfortunately it looks like their president is determined either to screw us over or start a bidding war.

As has been previously mentioned I wouldn't be surprised if spurs were pulling some strings here like they tried to with Ozil when selling Bale to Madrid.

[Sarb]

Cant waste a summer negotiating for him. Their chairman agreed a deal then ****ed us at the last minute. Stinks of Levy antics

[Fierce]

He'd be challenging Sterling's place, and we're going to need to rotate far more than we've ever been able to under Brendan so far

Also think he'd be an absolute perfect fit. I think our style has changed slightly since going for Micky Ryan (not that I wouldn't have him in a heartbeat too) and I think Sterling is on his own in his position whereas we're better covered for the central/attacking midfield area

[Norbs]

I thought he was out of contract shortly...

[Fierce]

I'm 6'2

Pipe down short arse

[Fosterbloke]

Small man syndrome.

[Jaymo]

I can imagine us not going back in for him in the summer, better targets available possibly?

[el matador]

i dont think his final ball is all that. hes pacy and direct but doesnt score or create enough for me.

It is not nor are his defensive skills.

Good player but we should look somewhere else if Dnipro is unwilling to sell him for a reasonable price.

There's always loads of good young players coming through. I like him but at 24 he should be very close to the final product. If that's the best that konoplyankas going to be we need to look at someone who has a much higher potential talent.

Funny thing is he reminds me a bit of kuba from Dortmund when he was younger. Pacy and very direct but not a lot of end product. Kuba has gone on though to become a decent player but not top level Imo.

Very good comparison

Rodgers did indicate a month or so ago when asked about Konop that it would be affected by where we finish in the league as to whether we go back in for him

I dont think we will. Must be better players out there that we could try for
