Oh man, it's going to be "Point to prove" Knocky against us, isn't it?

Might chuck a wedge down on either;

A> Insanely reckless red card challenge
or
B> Worldie goal

Or both.

AK was magical and will get a standing ovation when he returns to the Amex.

He was inconsistent but got us points in both our first two seasons, him and Izquierdo gave us moments of brilliance which we allied to our solid core and kept us up.

So rather than view him as 'inconsistent' in the Prem, why don't we view him as essential to our survival in those critical first two seasons.

As for his promotion season, we have rarely had a player so exciting and so dominant, what a pleasure to watch

I don't think they'll retain him for the season. I wouldn't be surprised to see them loan him out again. He was nowhere near as good for them as he was for us, we were desperate for him to succeed in the Premier League. Fulham may well just see him as a player who helped them to promotion but isn't up to the standard. He won't get as many chances there as he did here.

Doesn't surprise me, looked a former shadow of himself in the cup game the other night. Missed a sitter too

A good championship player who can make the difference. However, once in the premier league, .................

Did as well as Trossard last year?

But as much as I think he was okay in the PL (nothing more), we are moving on at pace with different needs....

I would like to see him loaned out to us, our present form would give him the opportunity to really put on a show

Hasn't pulled up too many since moving to Fulham to be fair. He was the talisman in the promotion season and the one before, strange how he seems to have lost his mojo in a short period of time.

Good...? Surely you don’t have that short a memory or can find some better adjectives for him. He was outstanding in the Championship for us. He did alright in the prem too in my opinion.
