Knockaert

[Cowfold Seagull]

You forgot his incredible energy - he is still tracking back at 100mph and pressurising defenders at the other end in injury time.............emotional after-match interview as well. We're very lucky

Indeed we are. We must not let this guy go Mr.Bloom! Very early days I know, but he and Glenn Murray, really could finally unlock the door to the promised land.

 

[Bwian]

Absolutely been mentioned before. But my days.

That no look pass in the first half.

The way he sent two Forest players for a cup of tea then looked at the crowd as he played in Murray.

First touch
Pace
Upper body strength
Skillz
Goals.

Anything he can't do?

I said to the guys I sit with that he reminds me of Ian Rush in his prime. Obviously needs a few more goals but has Rush's commitment. Different types of players obviously but he chases back to help out, wins tackles and probably covers more ground per game than anybody on the pitch. Just like Rush.

Sadly, I think we will struggle to hang on to him-the positive to that though is that if Bolassie is worth 30 million then Knockaert is worth at least that.

 

[Albumen]

He's the best I've seen at the Amex. Beats Vicente.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I find myself actually fearing for his safety at times. He's so quick and skilful, that he's turning away from defenders a fraction of a second before they come steaming in- mostly, it works and he breaks away, but every so often somebody is going to absolutely RINSE him and leave him in tiny pieces.

Seems he wants to stay so we can hang on to him and see where we are come January or the end of season. It matters not what is offered if he wants to see the season out and TB doesn't need the money.

 

[Boy Blue]

The commentators saying he'll cost £10 million. Where do they get this ridiculous figure from, is it what they think he's worth because to me he's worth at least £20 million.

 

[severnside gull]

That first goal showed how dangerous he can be coming in to the centre when the ball is on the other wing. Good finisher.

What commentators?

 

[Boy Blue]

What commentators?

The pundits who commentate before, during and after the games.

 

[Hampster Gull]

He's ok

 

[Nixonator]

The pundits who commentate before, during and after the games.

They're clueless then. Firstly he wouldn't 'cost' anything because we're not selling and he doesn't want to leave.

Secondly, with the prices going around for players in current market, 10m is absolutely laughable.

 

[EddieReader]

Great performance all round. We are carrying on where we left off last season. And class waiting to get into the team. I hope we keep them all.

I meant specifically who and on what broadcasting station.

Sky sports who covered the match.

Sky sports who covered the match.

They were not the only ones covering the match. Anyway, just proving they're clueless.

Sky was the one I watched.

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Yes, he has a bit of Wardy about him - turns defenders inside out, sharp pace on the turn and a good shot.

 

[Gazwag]

That was imo the best display from a Brighton player I have ever seen at Reading today.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Just enjoy Knocky while he's here. He's ridiculously over-qualified to be playing at this level.

 

[Wilko]

One of the best performances I have seen. I am going to say it, he is better and more influential than Vicente.
