U23s & Academy

Early in the 2009/10 campaign, Billy was suspended for two weeks by the Academy for a breach of discipline. In early 2010 a further transgression was apparently made, which led to Billy's dismissal from the academy. \

 

 

 

 

Looks like another Bartonesque...

Honestly know nothing about him, but a quick google search reveals:

2009/10 season

After recovering from his cruciate ligament injury, Billy came back into the academy team but struggled to adapt to the team’s new 4-4-2 diamond formation, having spent his formative years at the club solely operating in a 4-4-3. To instill some defensive work ethic in his game, the club coaches started to use him at left-back, where he was still able to get forward effectively, whilst improving his all-round ability. Despite playing further back he went on a six game goalscoring run, including his first for the reserve team, and looks as at home in the back four as he has in attack. The aim for the second half of the season is to press on and make an impact in the reserve team.

 

Club is thin on Leftbacks at the moment.

 

He would be struggling if he had previously adapted to a 4-4-3 tbh.

From a Chelsea supporter who I think is the FM researcher for them about Knott:

 

He was at Sunderland last week. High tempo, high energy left winger or left back, pacy, great shot, good skill, scores goals, gets stuck in, great leader.

 

He was only let go because of something he did (I don't know what, I know something else he did), he's a real talent.
