Welcome Ibrahima Konate

[Gethin]

Signed for an hour and no welcome thread? Treated like a dog already

 

 

[Ombudsam]

One of the voices in my head described him as Matip with pace so that’s something to get the masses going.

[Nebraska Red]

His first club visit was to the treatment team, where he met all the other central defenders.

[Tommy Cockles]

Yes, Ibrahima Konaté
And gettin' caught in the rain
I'm not much into Kabak
I am into Van Dijk

I've got to meet you at the Anfield Road
And cut through all this red tape
At a bar called O'Matips
Where we'll plan our escape

[Benzo-13]

I Konate believe we’ve signed this guy..

Welcome to Merseyside Red.

[Dan]

It's KonaTAY rather than KonAHte apparently.

I read ages ago when we first got linked to Upamecano that this lad was the one we should be looking at.

I’ve been a huge fan ever since.

Heading is deffo gonna be banned at some stage.

If you think Guardiola was emotional the other day then imagine him when that news comes through.

[smithdown]

Ibrahama Konate make those eyes at me for

A-when they don’t mean what they sayyyy

[Duncan Disorderly]

He's my favourite player.

[chrisbonnie]

Isn't it rumored the only other centre half to clock up a quicker sprint than VVD in Europe was Konate? 

If klopp can't work with that, nobody can....

I thought Gomez was meant to be our quickest player.

[Rusty Shackleford]

Anyone else think he looks a bit awkward and clumsy on the videos knocking around? I guess he’s very effective with it and I’ve only looked at his highlights so what the f*** do I know? I guess he and Van Dijk are going to end up looking like a bad guys two henchman in a 1980s film, particularly as one of them always had a little Van Dijk ponytail.  

On a separate note I’d accidentally turned on the YouTube subtitles and Konate’s name came up as Hebrew McConaughey.

Goes to ground a lot in the one video I saw.

Must have watched the same video. He's much bigger than I expected. He's massive and strong with it. Looks a decisive tackler and happy to press high up the pitch. Exciting.

I think we'll discourage some of that, particularly until he's proven his fitness
