The Konate Kid

[Hyena]

No disrespect but Konate seems like the sort who needs a birthday cake too feel motivated

 

[Brizzle]

Didn't realise he was getting #5. Nice to see it back on a defender!

I love how much it means to this lad. He’d gonna be immense.

Apart from the fact that he kind of shares my name, I do like the fact that he doesn't appear to be awestruck by anything or anyone. Hell, he named that cunt Ramos as his best defender, meaning he's probably appreciates the cynical side of the game a little more and might prove to be the young "Koulibaly" type signing we've all previously clamoured for beside big Virg.

I also think (with him being French U21 captain), he's got the sort of stature to take over leadership at the back once Virg retires.

A boring under the radar signing that could prove to be another steal. Hopefully he proves me right!

I still can’t believe we’ve signed another injury prone player 🙁

Not awestruck?? Man has just organised a party to celebrate getting the no. 5 shirt, and invited the whole village....

I also celebrated that No 5 was up for grabs!

After Keita, I would not get my hopes high for any other signing from RBL. I am still counting on Nats and the leftovers to partner him.

Lol. The fact he did that and has created some "meme-able" banter material for his inevitable haters (if he flops), means he's not afraid to stick his neck out. I like that sort of confidence.
