tickler28 Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 King is playing defensive midfield for Wales in Cyprus. 52 minutes in and King has not made one clean tackle. In fact I think he's only made one tackle (foul). Bit of a passenger from what I can see with just a few simple sideways passes and one through ball played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychonaut Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 Crap game to watch. King has been the definition of a passenger - not involved at all. Playing defensive mid isnt helping and he definitely isnt a defensive mid! Cyprus players just gliding by him, ive not seen him make a single tackle yet.

tickler28 Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 Sorry to say it but King is surely going to be replaced by Kante/Inler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdb Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 His biggest weakness is he backs out of tackles. Surely that's a def midfielders main duty. Chris Coleman for ya... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tickler28 Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 Is he all that in attacking midfield? Long and distant memory the King of old who'd drive forward and either set up the attackers or score himself...just seems a little...lifeless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 poor game. Lots of Bale dick licking from the commentary team. King was bypassed and looked poor. Wales 9th best in the world and almost in the Euro champs. Can't see King being in the City team against Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wales 9th best in the world and almost in the Euro champs. Can't see King being in the City team against Villa. They were poor but to be fair they ground out a result under pressure. A massive 3 points for them. Bale got them out of jail tonight but you can't help be pleased for them. They deserve it over the course of the qualifying campaign. Agree with King being dropped for Villa (as in I think Claudio will drop him) and we will start Kante and Drinkwater in a return to 442 formation.

st albans fox Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 Always available to link the play. Did ok throughout the second half - I missed the first period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxinNotts Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 What's with the negative comments? Saw the last 30mins of the Wales game. Kingy didn't put a foot wrong. Found every pass, played it simple, and forward, which led to the goal. Must have been awful for the first 60! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littletoe Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 Watched the full game. It was not just his shit tackling tonight, but his sloppy passes and pathetic attempts to run past players 1v1. Poor Welsh performance overall carried by Bale. Having said that, i have alot of respect for King wearing our shirt and hope he finds his form when he plays for us.

Can't believe you're the first person to mention him trying to run past/dribble past players, im sure I seen him knock it past the player then just run into him three times haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox in the Forest Posted 3 September 2015 Share Posted 3 September 2015 Only watched the game on telly. King: invisible for 55 minutes, then started to anchor the midfield for a bit when Wales attacked (even though the commentators named ever other player who touched the ball except King!) But he was really not that great. I thought it was him that started the goal movement off on the wing, but replays suggest otherwise. Very disappointed that he just gurned through the National Anthem (although there should be some quality stills for the AK thread!) & I'm just not sure what he added to that team, which is a shame. Guessing he'll be on the bench against Villa; Inler/Kante replacing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
