ALBION boss Chris Hughton has hailed another knockout performance at the Amex by Anthony Knockaert.
The French winger sparkled again in last night’s 3-0 win over Brentford.

Knockaert followed an influential home debut against Huddersfield last month with the opening goal and an outstanding first-half display.
Hughton said: “It’s difficult (for defenders) when somebody like Anthony is on form.
“He can go either way.
“He doesn’t always play very wide and once he gets into those little holes he can be very difficult to pick up.
“He’s a winger and they can be a little bit up and down.
“That is the nature of the position but he has settled in really well for us.”
Knockaert, bought from Belgian club Standard Liege after helping Leicester to promotion from the Championship, celebrated his fourth outing for Albion with a low drive which broke the deadlock.
