Can you take one of the words I don't use very often. Like mellifluous.

I can imagine playing with AK is both very rewarding and very frustrating in equal measures. Occasionally a bit on the selfish side which must be irritating as a striker in 10 yards of space. On the other side of the coin he'll get you assists when he shouldn't. On balance you'd obviously rather have him but when Murray loves scoring goals as much as he does you can understand the odd bit of frustration.
Ruud Van Nistelrooy said the same about Cristiano Ronald
That's my favourite clip of the season - love the expression on Knocky's face.

Apart from Elliott Bennett, who had Glenn as best man at his wedding?

This season GM has looked so much happier than in his last spell with us. He used to celebrate with a straight face and his "hand on head" sign, people used to say he never looked very happy and that was true.
But now he looks delighted when celebrating, massive smile on his face, you can easily lip read the "YESSSSSS" when he scores and see the happiness in his eyes.
It's great to see, let's leave the past in the past.

Rubbish Knockaert is far fitter and rarely misses games due to a slight knock

As for Knocky, when you put together how quality he is and how exciting he is to watch with how happy he is here and how much he loves the club and the fans, it's bloody wonderful.
I really feel that he is the kind of sentimental and loyal personality that it would take a massive move to a top six club for him to consider moving on, I can easily see him turning down decent established PL clubs because he'd rather stay with us, and for that I get a warm fuzzy feeling inside.
Another example of how things are just different at the Albion than at most other clubs, and in the best possible way.

re: Murray. Just see him laugh heartily at the cheeky kid when he did this Xmas wish thing.
Watch from 1.18 for that or the whole thing. Lovely bloke.
PS: Must have been cold in that house though as he doesn't take his coat off.

Lets wait and see, its likely all our current squad will take time adjusting to the Premier League, I love this squad and want them all to have a shot at establishing themselves.

When he writes the story of his new life will it be a Bio Hazard?
Didn't look unhappy sprinting 100 yards towards us at Birmingham.......or every time he's scored in from the North this season.
Re Knocky, a Leicester STH colleague of mine, who has seen a lot of our games on TV this season, is staggered at the difference in him. Says he rarely tracked defensively back at Leicester but seems to be working his nuts off for us in that way. He's always had the skill, he's still developing - with continued improvement in his decision-making (every bollocking he gets from Glenn and Tomer for not crossing will contribute the this) he could be immense. Desperately hope we keep him and he continues to improve.

I read the thread title and thought of Mike Hazard, not Eden.
I'm going to have to swot up on Premier League footballers now as I've generally ignored them in the past, focussing more on whichever division we have been in.
Which teams do John Barnes and Andy Gray play for these days?

Knocky may well have dodgy games against the top lot next year and may in fact not even start. We will however need him fit and firing for games against the bottom half and particularly the bottom six. It is those games that will really define our season.

Knocky needs to temper his emotions, and while us as fans absolutely love him for it, he will be a better footballer if he tones it down a bit. Glenn seems to calm him down which is a good thing.
I don't know if anybody else noticed leading up to the first Norwich goal, Knocky and Dorrans were having a right spat - can see this on highlights.
