[Brighton] Is AK good enough for the prem or just a liability?

[Follow That Seagull]

Now i was thinking about how to approach this but i'll come right out with it.

Is AK good enough for the premier league or a liability with a bad attitude in TB's payrole?

How the same could be said about half our players too but today i just wanted to focus on AK

What are your thought's on AK? Was he able to make the step or have we been fooled?

 

[the right footed denilson]

He's certainly angry. Neutrals must think he is a petulant thug.

 

[djentist]

Where's the middle option for "he's clearly capable of becoming a consistent performer in this league but, like a toy sealed in its box, he's stuck on 'Try Me' mode"

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

He was a proper bellend tonight. Sulking all over the place.

At one point CH told him to get up off the floor after a dive

March was quality

 

[RM-Taylor]

Wrong to single him out because he shows aggression when things aren’t going his way, at least he gives a sh!t unlike some players like Brown.

 

[scooter1]

He's good enough, but needs to kerb his temper for the team. He talked himself into the book tonight, and we shouldn't be doing that.

 

[rinswun]

Feels like he's never managed to find form after his pre-season injury. Right now, he's
Not justifying his spot in the team but undoubtedly he's a fantastic talent. I also think he's been impacted by Bruno's lessened mobility as those over lapping runs last year haven't been as prevalent for much of this season.

 

[portlock seagull]

Did himself no favours tonight, certainly his petulance and frustration gets better of him. Sad to say after half a season he appears to be ‘just’ a very good tier 2 player. Nice move midway through 1st half but that was all. And that’s not anywhere good enough at this level love him as we all do.

Personally i think the passing of is father hit him far worse than we realize as he's not. Well in my opinion been the same player since his passing.

 

[martin tyler]

Thought he was our brightest spark tonight till march came on. Needs to curb his frustration and temper at times.
Might just be me but I’d be interested seeing Izquierdo through the middle, march and AK wide with grob a bit deeper as part of a middle 3 but allow the 3 attacking players a bit more of a freedom to attack. I think the 3 have the pace and ability with decent service from the middle of the park and it would hopefully free Propper and Grob to make runs into the box and leave Stephens sitting in.

 

[GloryDays]

He's a brat and when thing's are going his way a divisive member of the squad.

I actually think his work rate is fine and accept he will provide a lot less than last season, but he needs to chill out. He's an emotional player but if he can't keep that in check he's useless to us. Awful discipline. He needs to calm down, keep on working and remember it's a team effort. Perhaps get GM to slap him about a bit.

Rough with the smooth.

No one singling him out, this is as much about his temperament as performance. He’s not PL quality but then, who is in our team? Perhaps Ryan, who made an outstanding save from Kane’s free kick to push onto the post. And we got lucky with rebound.

Dunk, Duffy, Propper and Gross are. March too. Jose potentially.

Outstanding save? Was you at the game or did you watch on a stream? I watched it online and Ryan got cursed by the commentators for letting the ball slip through his hands and the ball hitting the post, was more luck than a good save.

 

[Ninja Elephant]

He needs to relax.

 

[origigull]

I think part of the reason why AK isn't playing to his best is that he has to defend more around our box and when he get the ball is too far back and has to run further just to get to the half-way line.

 

[Berty23]

Knockaert was really disappointing tonight. He has me worried.

 

[theboybilly]

I'm struggling to think of a good away display from Knockhaert since Sheff Wed away - perhaps Watford

 

[Richy_Seagull]

One of our better players tonight. Broke forward with pace. Let’s be honest there was nothing really in the final third so find it bizarre he’s being singled out.

Wolves.
