Very disappointing if it happens. We are not short of money, just short of talent. He is one of the few we have that can make things happen.

Does it not speak volumes that the only winger that’s gathering interest is Knockaert?

Apart from the freedom of playing attacking football.

Won't be sad to see him go, still a petulant child despite his age. We should be asking for north of £20m in this climate however.

That'll be because moves start with informal calls asking if the player is interested. Alireza has already indicated 'no' to these - so interest ends before transfer fees are even discussed. I'm sure it is the same for some other players.

If a team want a player that badly they’ll get him...can’t imagine anyone wanting Alireza that much.

hmmm... so you really believe another club would currently pay 15m or more for AJ? No chance. They would probably have offered less than half of that, so we would have said no, even if AJ wanted out...

Again - this.

That is not what I was commenting about. I was saying that there are no offers for Alireza in the press because he is saying 'no' at the initial informal sounding out. Before fees are even considered.

I'd hope that Potter will find a way to get the best out of Knocky. It seems to me that he has to mature and adapt his game to the higher level we're at. He can't be as he was in the Championship, with defenders slower and more easily fooled. Under Potter i'd expect an attacking force who ebb and flow in tandem, so it is less of a one-man show when the ball is at Knocky's feet, the dribbles and twists and over-emotional lunges being a little lesser.
He has had two seasons in the Premier League, we were not playing uber-conservative in each and every single minute of every single game. Besides, when has Knocky listened to anyone like his manager?

Dangerous Idiot
Someone went as far as saying Wilson would be our best player ffs. Never kicked a ball at PL level & surely the Everton’s and West Ham’s would be all over him if he was rated.

I dunno, love Knocky but so frustrating last year. I think he'll leave and I think we can do better there, hopefully Trossard.
A Liverpool fan.
In Trossard’s video clips, he seems best on the left of midfield and to a lesser extent behind the centre forward.
More of a replacement for Jahanbakhsh and Izquierdo.
Absolutely what he said

Mon nez est en Valenciennes..
However, playing in the Premier League under a manager who knows how to get the very best from him, plays to his strengths, and his mentor and friend Bruno is still around every day.... I'd stay.
I'd be genuinely gutted if he left, but would understand his reasons if he did.
