Yup, that first half sure summed up my feelings on Konate. I know that Ed is not happy that he's yet another player that Liverpool have let go on a free, but boy are they better off without him.

Olise with two shocking misses when France had brought it back to within one. He did also create two goals, so kind of a wash, but I cannot believe he missed both of those.

Not that we didn't try to sign him (and Trent even moreso) but Real has a reputation of doing that (Alaba and Rudiger come to mind). Ibou had been inconsistent the last year and a half, though, so I was bothered by the circumstances but losing the player? Not so much.
And today was one of those "when he's off, he's just awful" games we had too often last year. Well liked player but now that we've moved on, good luck to him trying to prove he belongs.
