Anthony Knockaert

[StonehamPark]

For the remaining 5.

That move for the goal was amazing to watch, he was really positive from the second he came on.

 

[Luke93]

Chris likes to start him at home, bench him away. Though I think he must start from now on.

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

I love Kaz as much as the next man but he was completely ineffective tonight. Chris seems to have the players racing out of the trap from the first whistle and I think all the waylaid passes in the second half were down to tiredness more than a lack of composure. We played too many balls in the air and our control let us down, Knockeart HAS to start if we're going to continue this push, the man is our engine room.

When he got the ball from Bruno on the wing I said to myself this is where we want it. Knockaert dancing through their defenders was magical

 

[Icy Gull]

Start at home impact sub away

 

[StonehamPark]

He really is a quality player and I think we look weaker without him imo.

He's exceptionally creative, tricky, skilful and has an accurate shot.
I'd consider him and Kayal our best players.

He saved us tonight.

 

[Solid at the back]

Think Hughton has it bang on, start at home, bring him on away. If hed started tonight thatd never of happened

 

[KZNSeagull]

He cannot keep that up for every game. CH is using him wisely. Watch him tear Fulham a new one on Friday.

Skalak has to be on the pitch for his delivery which is, mainly, top class.

 

[London Irish]

Start all 5 - utterly dodged a bullet tonight bringing him on late - that wasn't a plan, that was getting lucky

 

[KT17]

Knocky will be playing in the premiership next season.

Just hope it's with us...

 

[Notters]

Whatever Chris thinks is best.

 

[Albion Dan]

He's had a few quiet games when starting away so think CH has it spot on.

lualua as an impact sub - will be at his most effective against tired defenders

 

[StonehamPark]

5 games left, the most lucrative 15 points in football.

No allowance to gamble 60 minutes per game for 'impact' imo.
I'd give Kaz & Wilson that job.

Get our best players on the pitch for as long as they can stay fit for the last 5.

When he switches it on he does it so well. That spark that not many teams have. If you start him every game he might burn out. Let the workhorses do their thing and save Knocky for the right moment.

 

[Meade's Ball]

I'd start him. Kaz is without his natural dartfulness, and you wonder what he greatly offers without that threat in his locker. I'd look to have Murphy and Skalak swap roles as wideman and supporting striker through the game, as for all his sometime crossing ability, Skalak clinging to the wing doesn't seem his natural spot. Knocky has those moments of magic, and we need him in full flow for the remaining few fixtures.

You make your own luck. Forest had two players on yellow cards, so Knockaert could run at them in the area without fear.

 

[portslade seagull]

Thought once he started taking them on he was going to lose the ball

Knockers will be fresh for Friday after only 20 mins tonight, and then he gets an 8 day rest and no more midweek games. He should start every game from now I reckon.
