ScouseFox Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 No. We have one quality central midfielder, and it's King. Why sell your best player? That's not how you get promoted.
John Matrix Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 no thanks. could become a legend for the club. he'll only improve as he gets older and more confident. doubt we'll see as many games this season where he 'goes missing'
Jimmy Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 I think in order to get the best out of King we have to play 4-3-3 how ever if he isn't getting goals himself he doesn't often help create them so can't be part of a 4-4-2 in an attacking cm role for that reason, whilst I wouldn't seek to sell if we were offered anything over £5m I'd be tempted
RyanB89 Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 hahaha 5 quality midfielders? really? we have 4 good midfielders and oakley
Dan Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Unless we're offered something absolutely ridiculous, then no. I think his all-round game could do with some work, but he's bagged 15 goals in the league from midfield, aged 21/22, without taking a single set-piece. Very intelligent player and a cracking finisher. If Reading can get £6.25mil for Sigurdsson, we should laugh off £3mil.
leicesterisme Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 What the actual fuvk? This threads unbelievable it really is, lets just sell our top scorer and arguably the best finisher in our club.
Marmite Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 This is the most stupidest poll I have seen basically you are asking '' Shall we sell our best player ? '' its not as though we are in debt or need the cash. We should be building our team around King, one of the best young midfielders in the country who is only going to get better and scores goals. I tell you what why were at it lets sack Sven as well as we wont need him :sge: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty:

King isn't our best player, Gallagher and Wellens create a lot more from midfield, King is our biggest goal threat from there yes but best player no
Haydos Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Could be the difference between playoffs and promotion. 7th and 6th. No chance.
CloudFox Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 I'm sorry, I thought we were trying to go forward as a club. I wasn't aware that selling one of our nailed-on first-teamers and Team/Club Captain furthered this aim, but if that's what you think Top and Sven should do...........
StarFox Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 No Way!!! Why even mention this? And why bother planting the seed?
The Doctor Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 This is arguably the most retarded thread ever to have been started on here. We have king, abe, danns, moussa, wellens & oakley as CM. Strength in depth is key, for a 48 game season (More if we get through the first round of both cups) you need at least 5/6 Centre midfielders. If we're going to sell 1 of them, make it wellens or oakley, not king.
Guest Col city fan Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Not for me, we need strength and depth. Selling our best goal scoring midfielder won't get us promotion. Agree completely. Strength in depth is crucial and having a midfielder who can score goals is worth it's weight in gold. And he's club skipper! Would we want to sell the club skipper?
clare Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Seriously? Why would we want to even contemplate selling him? Madness.
MrSpaM Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Agree completely. Strength in depth is crucial and having a midfielder who can score goals is worth it's weight in gold. And he's club skipper! Would we want to sell the club skipper? Reading apparently
kyle09uk Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Possibly the dumbest poll ever on FoxesTalk. ^^^^^ FACT ^^^^^ This thread is a load of goswollox! WE on about our youth academy product thats established himself as a first team player... that alone in itself makes me just wanna keep him in the team! arewe also on about our top goal scorer last season? surely if we're on about progressing as a team surely we should be keeping hold of our best players and our main source of goals?! LUDICRIOUS! My new poll shall be should we play just 1 at the back? pffft
Finchy Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 There are 10 people that should be banned from the forum.
artursteppe Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Let me say I would not sell King at the moment. His value would be at least retained over the next 12 months. However in the long term he hasn't convinced me yet that he will become anyway near as good as some on here seem to think. He is better than average, so is Wellens ( 'though I would sell him before Andy King ). I do see them spending more time on the bench this season. I believe the players are expecting it - Andy King said as much at the end of last season ( ie that Sven will probably be using a lot more rotation of players in midfield, with the addition of new talent before next season starts ).
