    Konrad failed to beat his marker - some “washed up” short guy with blazing speed and dynamic sex appeal.

    I remember there was a play when Yedlin wanted to box him out on a loose ball and Konrad faked him by allowing Yedlin to begin to left shoulder him and Konrad quickly switched to the other side for a better position on the ball.

    I think that's the one where Jensen got back to force the ball out off Konrad for a GK? That was the one time I saw Yedlin beaten by KDLF.

    And looking dangerous already. Nearly set up Payet for a goal in the first 5 minutes.

    He does well with his limited touches, but he needs to be more involved.

    Watching on French TV, they are giving Konrad high praise.

    Well, he is trying to combine with Payet on the left, but Payet is a bit of a ball hog.

    Also, he is new and young and not the offense's first option.

    He was decent today. Hope he can get a goal or an assist soon.

    His technical speed is quite good. His final ball...needs to improve.

    I thought really impressive. Yeah, needs to be sharper sometimes, but he took
    5-6 guys out of the play on the 1st dribbling/pass sequence. Several of his involvements could have lead to goals. On the shot, he had the right idea to
    go top shelf and near post. Just got under it a little. He had to drill.

    If he ever develops a shot from outside box- look out!

    Yeah, that is why I think he needs to have a place in the national team. He is one of the few players that can take players on, and beat them, on the dribble.
