Apologies if this is hidden in one of the match threads but did anyone else notice the interaction between Duffy & Knocky today? They were well and truly at each other at times.

Both wear their hearts on their sleeves so not sure if it was an argument or attempted motivation or what. Quite hard to work out on beam back. My mate noticed it first & we both picked up on it after that

Duffy certainly gave Knockaert a right coating for not chasing back in the move that led to what looked like being the Brentford winner.

They were also supportive of each other when we were back on level terms. So I think just venting frustration as both are passionate p[layers.

Duffy seemed to be really giving Knocky a positive word towards the end of the game.

You're probably right, and no different from us argumentative children that call ourselves supporters during 90 mins. All is forgiven with a kiss, cuddle and pint after the game.

Leyton, E10.
AK was also more than happy to appeal for handball incessantly while the opposition just dallied about with the ball as well, not closing down and keeping the pressure. Probably the type of nonsense SD can't be arsed with. Like cats and dogs, players like that.

EDIT

Exactly.

LOL 'interaction'........Duffy was going absolutely apeshit at him. Haven't watched the replays yet but Duffy, along with Bruno, was laying into him after Brentford's third - can only think he was out too wide or didn't track his man.

And rightly so. I get the feeling that Knockaert needs reining in sometimes and other times needs to be reminded of his defensive duties - especially away from home. I really wouldn't be surprised if Duffy has a standing order from Hughton to do this as well. When it comes to defence, Duffy and Dunk should have carte blanche to control that aspect.

At that point he was going apeshit but it carried on in to something else. Hard to see with 1 camera but we were pretty sure they'd made up by the end.

I love Duffys passion. Bit unfair on knocky though when you consider he set up two goals with brilliant crosses, almost won a pen and his run meant the ball fell to March. Unbelievable. And then you look on the other wing and we've got Murphy and Skalek who are supposedly picked ahead of March because they are better at defending yet BOTH didn't track back for the first goals in the last two games so we might as well have March defending than those two!
