Fox92 Posted 31 March 2009 Posted 31 March 2009 ... That's right Andy King scored for Wales http://live.skysports.com/ScoreCentre/live.html
Finnegan Posted 31 March 2009 Posted 31 March 2009 Against Luxemburg. With Ramsey promoted, mind, he might get a more regular look in.
Corky Posted 31 March 2009 Posted 31 March 2009 Against Luxemburg. With Ramsey promoted, mind, he might get a more regular look in. How long is it before he'll be in contention for the senior squad do you think, Finners?
Finnegan Posted 31 March 2009 Posted 31 March 2009 How long is it before he'll be in contention for the senior squad do you think, Finners? I honestly don't think he'll ever have much impact at senior level. Unless there's a drastic upturn in his development I can't see him getting more than 18 / 20 odd caps during his career. If that. We've a very, very young squad - in particular our midfield - who he's always going to be behind. Collison, Ramsey, Edwards and Ledley are all better central midfielders than him and none of them are decades older than him. Even lads like Owain Tudur Jones are considered ahead of him and I personally think Tudur Jones has been a massive disappointment.
RowlattsFox Posted 31 March 2009 Posted 31 March 2009 Taken off at half-time too, rested because they were 4-0 up or injured?
Finnegan Posted 31 March 2009 Posted 31 March 2009 May have been at the behest of Pearson or may just have wanted to give Joe Partington a run out in a game we were obviously going to win. He's new up from the U19s so it would have been a good opportunity for him. Can't remember the last time I saw King play 90 for the U21s. Doesn't really to be all that highly rated by Flynn or Tosh to be honest.

When we go up to the Championship and hopefully beyond, i'm sure he will be in the senior team, if he is playing well for us in the Premiership, or even top 6 in the Championship. Can't see him getting in now though, this season is really his first full season with us in the first team week in week out, hopefully he will stay with us and we will keep moving up levels so he gets noticed.

Can't see Andy King being a Premiership midfielder and can't realistically see us being a Premiership side with him still in it. I'm not always the best judge of potential (shut up, Sparky, how's Dean Ashton's career lately!? ) but it doesn't take a genius to see that King's behind everyone I just stated by quite a wide mark. Of course he'll probably get a few senior caps, he's just not likely to ever really make a mark.
lildave3 Posted 1 April 2009 Posted 1 April 2009 Always good to see a Leicester player scoring at any level against any team.

Of course he'll probably get a few senior caps, he's just not likely to ever really make a mark. To be fair to the lad - this is his first proper season and he's made an excellent fist of it. I can see him playing a part in a team like ours if we ever went up that high again. Seriously.
