James: We shouldn't offer Konate a contract. He wasn't interested in one last year when things were going well and he thought he would get a move to Real Madrid. Now they've realised he is bang average, all of a sudden he only ever had eyes on staying. As well as this, he simply is not good enough.
Russell: Perhaps he has realised there isn't going to be a big queue of clubs lining up to sign him if he does not sign a contract with Liverpool after his poor form this season.
Ross: Not sure if another contract for Konate is a must? He is inconsistent, can have great games and look really good, but also looks as if he can't read a game sometimes and gets caught out of position.
Rhys: Difficult to be excited about this news when he's been prone to so many individual errors. Strong in the air but an accident waiting to happen.
Lee: Konate has been too much of a liability this season and a new contract will just be rewarding mediocrity. He's been a great servant but it's time to move on and get someone younger and better.
Riz: On his day Ibou is world class. Yes there has been very dodgy displays this season, but it may have been because of his father's illness/death. We still need at least one more defender (two if Joe Gomez leaves), and that will have to be another proven senior player...not a player with potential.
Fraser: While he has been all over the place this season, he has been good for us at Liverpool. I am sure he will improve next season. Extending his contract will certainly save us a headache this summer. Overall, happy to see that he wants to stay.
Benjamin: Great news regarding Konate. A key member of the first team and defence. So glad he's staying.
