Your happy watching him make wrong choices in the box 90% of the time then? Why can’t we discuss our current team without someone reverting to when we were shit all the time? Get over it and move on.

But what more do posters want?

I just don't understand the need to hammer a player who is clearly up to the task he's being asked to perform.

As said over the previous decades we fans have been stiffed by players who couldn't even get close to that less than glowing tribute.

We can but when a poster says “in my 40 years of watching then I’ve never seen a player [like him] ...” then fair enough to point out the hyperbole.

- Most assists for said side, which has spent over £100m in 'assist providers'

Fortunately he can't score for toffee as if he could you wouldn't be 'frustrated with the player' because he wouldn't be playing for the Albion.

I suggest you build a time-machine, go back to any one, from 1-35, of your Albion 'supporting' years then return and talk to us about frustrating.

All I said was I find him very frustrating to watch because his impact should be greater given his obvious natural ability. He’s hardly being ‘hammered’.

No you’re not and agreed he’s inconsistent and sometimes frustrating but I’d be exaggerating quite a bit I think if I said he was the most frustrating player I’ve seen “in forty years”

Deserves a mention for an excellent performance last night. I’m sure it’s been said already.

He played a bit narrower and looked dangerous and assured. His passing was early and accurate. Could play as one of three in midfield?

With Andone out, Locadia will need to drop to the bench for cover. So I’m sure Knocky will get a chance over the next couple of weeks.

And the fact that he actually passed the ball, much better for him and the team when he plays like that

Indeed, he’s a weird one I always feel like when he comes on as a sub he seems to want to go for glory a lot more, almost as if he’s trying to make his impact to get back in the starting XI and thinking less of the team, I can actually understand that to a point, as annoying as it can be.
