sylofox Posted 30 September 2014 Share Posted 30 September 2014 The embarrassment of our cup exit - a competition we used to want to win - summarised Knockaert. He's just a luxury - in firework terms an occasional highlight in a box of duds. He works hard and has a few tricks but otherwise he's a liability to everyone around him. He still runs into blind alleys, fails to play the one-twos, doesn't see the situations, losing the ball in daft places and makes other people see potential runs as worthless. If Knockaert scored 20 goals a season or made the same I could forgive the guy but he doesn't. In fact for a bloke of considerable skill he so rarely delivers. I'd absolutely hate to play alongside him - it must be the most frustrating experience in football. I thought he was getting better and have to concede that he has in some ways in that he goes chase back and his workrate when we're up against it can be quite refreshing. But that's about it. He doesn't have the pace or strength to make his skills tell against powerful and organised Premiership defenders. He's not a great marksman, header of the ball, accurate and imaginative passer nor even does he have the deft skills of GTF. The bloke's like a footballing wind-up toy. He zips around in every direction but all on his own and mostly getting nowhere. Stats say he did his job as a winger last season. As the main part of his job is to create chances he was the third highest in the division last season. Creating 86 chances and not his fault enough were not finished off. So not bad for a guy that zips around getting nowhere. God help the prem when he starts playing football and stops fvcking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sylofox Posted 30 September 2014 Share Posted 30 September 2014 I could see him doing something he adapts to the division although he is a massively frustrating player, and I just can't see how he's going to get a kick, when you consider there was no Wood or Albrighton in the 18 (not to mention according to some on here Powell and Lawrence are going to take the team by storm at any minute) either who've probably done more to warrant a place than he has, I don't know if they had knocks? Either way Will take a number of players missing or requiring rests for him to play again I think given the start he had, and now we're out the League cup and playing 8 fewer league games I struggle to see us picking up that many injuries or suspensions until the New Year. At least that shows Pearson has addressed the issue of depth though. Are we not likely to be needing him in jan and feb when we stand a great chance of loosing Mahrez and Schlupp to the ACON, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manwell Pablo Posted 30 September 2014 Share Posted 30 September 2014 Are we not likely to be needing him in jan and feb when we stand a great chance of loosing Mahrez and Schlupp to the ACON, Well yes that's why I said "Until the New Year" The ACON and the beginning (and hopefully not the immediate end) of our involvement in the FA cup could stretch the squad a little. That's a long time to go without football though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conLAD logan Posted 30 September 2014 Share Posted 30 September 2014 he's done nothing wrong in my eyes, everyone is really going over the top about his comments. Also, i think this will be a similar situation to last year where he doesn't start for the team but wins his place back, well i hope so anyway...

foxfanazer Posted 30 September 2014 Share Posted 30 September 2014 Would like to see him in the team/squad on saturday. Can create chances out of nothing and hopefully won't need to worry too much about defensive responsibilities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScouseFox Posted 30 September 2014 Share Posted 30 September 2014 oh right. just judging from the tunnel cam smiles and handshakes with nige and the numerous pictures of him and other teammates laughing, hugging etc in training id assumed we'd all drawn a line under the almost definitely made up rumours we can't mention. if he was being made an example of id assume he'd be in the reserves and training with the youth teamers or something, not just not playing cos nige isn't sure he's our best option in some games.

Guest MattP Posted 30 September 2014 Share Posted 30 September 2014 Could be a few reasons. Obviously the ..... incident. His fitness appears to be below par at this time of year plus we was dreadful against Everton, he might be completely out of form, the coaching staff might not think he's upto it at this level at the minute. I'd be giving Albrighton a go ahead of Knocky and I think and he's behind Mahrez and Schulpp in the pecking order for those wide roles. We'll see him back eventually I'm sure.

Yeah maybe I was just pointing out what he was more than likely on about. Doesn't mean he's right of course I think the main reason is probably he's been utter dog wank whenever he's been on the field so far this season tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
