The People's Hero Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 Iborra gone, silva going or out of favour, MJ looks a long way from 100 percent. We now play 3 central midfielders. I wonder if he’s as surplus to requirements as we assume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm just in denial. The last player I was actually upset about leaving was Neil Lennon. Prior to that it was probably Mark Draper. I must have forgotten a few. With Kante and Mahrez it was just inevitable and probably the right moves for them (that's how you make a move to a bigger side and actually play, Danny!)

oxford blue Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 I'm told by a friend who has spoken to a 'source close to Andy King' he wants to get involved in coaching. Perhaps not a surprise, but it would be good to see him at City in a coaching capacity; if he leaves to continue playing I hope he can be involved with the club in the future. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure he'll be registered for the remainder of the season if we are going to play with 3 in the middle regularly. Hamza, Wilf, Mendy and James just isn't enough bodies.

Popular Post Al-aLondon-Foxile Posted 11 January 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 11 January 2019 I really don't understand the disrespectful nature of some of these comments. The guy has done nothing but his best for us over the years, he's never done anything to upset or disrupt, he's scored crucial goals and has been there with us through the lowest times to the greatest achievements in this clubs history. I appreciate he may not be the answer to our problems now, but some of the comments are just not worthy of being attributed to this man. If he moves on this window i'll be sad to see him go, if he is retained and given a place in the squad i'd love him to lead us out for the last home game of the season, nothing less than he deserves. It's like some of you pay his wages and can save the money in your account if he's shipped out, it's too personal. 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been paid brilliantly for a lad that's been nothing but dependable back up for about 5 or 6 years. Seems like a top guy, but we need to stop being a charity to players and actually start filling the squad with talent that can help push the club on. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clever Fox Posted 11 January 2019 Share Posted 11 January 2019 (edited) He's becoming an embarrassment to himself, He knows he cannot cut it anymore in the premiership. Yet he could do a good job in the Championship or league 1. We really need to continue with clearing the fringe players from the squad. Then we know where we stand going into the Summer Window.

I completely agree, and your comment is respectful of that. I thought we'd replaced him too, but with the recent departures i think he may still be required unless we bring someone in. My point isn't about whether he should or shouldn't be in our plans, it's the way in which some people dismiss him, in a similar way to that in which Peter Taylor dismissed another legend of our club, that being Stevie Walsh. I hold King in a similar respect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously being paid way above what his ability dictates hence him sticking around despite getting little to no game time in last 2 years. Who the hell gave him a long term contract as a bit part player? The deification of this player is beyond me. He’s the epitome of what everyone is moaning about with Puel currently. Sideways backwards safety first. Yes he’s been here ages and had the odd decent season but he hasn’t been effective for so long... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AjcW Posted 14 January 2019 Share Posted 14 January 2019 Bristol City don't have anywhere near enough CM to consider selling Brownhill in Jan... could be used as part of that deal, imagine he would quite like to be close to Wales for international periods also.

TiffToff88 Posted 15 January 2019 Share Posted 15 January 2019 Interesting thought popped into my head this morning, obviously Kingy is out longest serving current player, and although there have been a few players in the past who have spent more time at the club than him, manager chopping and changing is much more frequent now. Does Andy King hold the record for having more different managers at Leicester than any other player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
