I thought the team played well today.

I naively thought NSC wouldn't be systematically turning on each player.
Oh well, better luck next week.

One of our better players, if he’s not good enough.........

Some deficiencies for sure but he gave it a bloody good go, was one of our better players and the only one prepared to take a run at them. Given our central midfielders hardly got out of our half he did a bloody good job imo

Brown is a waste of a shirt, I don’t think Knockaert is.

Knockeart is not a Premier League footballer (unfortunately)

He is .. he has played a number of games in the PL so by definition is a PL player. More seriously there were a few worse players than him today. He does some stupid petulant things but overall his workrate has been excellent.

Wow, in true NSC style this thread is unravelling. The point I was trying to make was not that AK is a waste of space. In fact, I think he remains one of the most, if not the most exciting and inspirational players in our squad.

However, when he goes on a mazey run and the defenders track back in front of him all that happens is that the final third gets compressed which means that the final pass has be pinpoint - and that’s just not happening enough - in order to give the recipient any chance etc......

If, he were to release the ball a little earlier or beat the defender then we might see a better return.
