Where is Andy King?

[Galstonian Oranje]

As per title.

He is a proven goal scoring midfielder, a premiership winner. Even described as a 'no brainer' of a signing by the manager. He can hardly get near our bench never mind start a game when our midfield offer us very little in atttacking options.

Strange signing

 

[DamBuster72]

In his house I'd imagine, he wasn't in today's squad.

 

[Square and compass]

The guy must be scunnered.
It would have been easier keeping mcrorie, who again was on the bench yesterday.
Ojo aint any better than middleton

 

[thornhill bear]

Would be nice to see him play before we start ripping him to shreds after a couple of games

 

[Papasmurf]

Would be nice to see him play before we start ripping him to shreds after a couple of games

He’s looked sharp enough in his brief appearances

 

[PortoyMortoy]

The fact he cant get a game is probably a sign

 

[Camby loyalist]

Totally agree, our midfield 3 were too much of the same. Aribo doesn't do enough for me King should be getting a chance he also has a bit of dig which was needed.

 

[Jjbscotty]

Turning into a bizzare signing.

 

[SuperGers07]

Arfield needs benched for a while, King will get a chance surely

 

[Bluebrox]

If Scott Arfield is deemed to be fitter than Andy King then King really does have problems.

 

[Coplandbear]

I don't think he was a Gerrard signing looks more a Mark Allen signing i reckon. Clearly King has been brought up to add depth to the squad and that's it really.

 

[Teddyjohn]

He deserves a run out at the very least.

 

[ICA_86]

If he’s no better than Kamara then we’re as well cancelling the loan and saving wages.

 

[Clubdeckg]

Thought we'd have seen more of him tbh

 

[The Golden God]

Does he have an underlying injury issue? There’s no chance he can’t get into the squad if he’s fully fit.

 

[Boab4]

The guy must be scunnered.
It would have been easier keeping mcrorie, who again was on the bench yesterday.
Ojo aint any better than middleton

King and McCrorie are completely different kind of players so that doesn't really make much sense.

 

[hammer17]

Arfield needs benched for a while, King will get a chance surely

If he can’t get near a 18 man squad when we already light In the midfield area with Jack being injured I wouldn’t be too sure

This game would have been perfect for King, yet we go with Kamara and Aribo who were painfully short when it was a dogfight.

 

[Marvin_Andrews_Loyal]

If he’s no better than Kamara then we’re as well cancelling the loan and saving wages.

Be as well chucking it if that's the case tbh

 

[JD1872]

Can only assume he has not shown enough in training

 

[Bulletproof]

Leicester obviously don't have the your c rap but you play anyway clause that we indubitably have with Ojo's loan.

 

[HandsomeHead]

I don’t think there’s anything bizarre about it.

If he hasn’t impressed Gerrard in training he isn’t getting into the squad. I think it’s as simple as that.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Kamara has been poor this season, Aribo hasn't kicked a ball domestically and Arfield isn't doing it yet King is nowhere to be seen.

I'd fancy King to produce more than Kamara, Aribo and Arfield.

 

[Square and compass]

King and McCrorie are completely different kind of players so that doesn't really make much sense.

Dont know as i havent seen him yet.
You get my jist, we are putting players out on loan and bringing in loans like ojo and king.
i really dont see the point of it

 

[Rangersnumberfour]

Couldn't get off the bench for Derby last season either

 

[Davieblue1977]

Turning into a bizzare signing.

Agree

 

[RenfrewBear72]

Pointless signing for both parties as we will be picking up some of the tab on his wages and he isn't even in the squad or getting a chance.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Couldn't get off the bench for Derby last season either

Picked up a bad injury, Lampard was gutted.

 

[Ulsterscot]

He picked up a groin strain in training on Friday.

Was gutted.

 

[KGR98]

Brought in for squad depth won't see him till Aribo or someone similar picks up an injury

 

[Alex Venters]

As per title.

He is a proven goal scoring midfielder, a premiership winner. Even described as a 'no brainer' of a signing by the manager. He can hardly get near our bench never mind start a game when our midfield offer us very little in atttacking options.

Strange signing

He's not good enough. If he was he'd be in the team.

 

[Ulsterscot]

He's not good enough. If he was he'd be in the team.

Maybe but he is injured just now.

Was up at the Hummel training centre and watched him pull up in training and he told me himself he felt his groin.

 

[bluetonic]

Totally agree, our midfield 3 were too much of the same. Aribo doesn't do enough for me King should be getting a chance he also has a bit of dig which was needed.

Kamara was in the centre half position at times today

 

[Blue Goose]

When was this mate?

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Aribo’s stats will I’m sure be far better than Kamara’s mate if you want goals scored or created.

 

[Ulsterscot]

When was this mate?

Just on Friday there

Nice fella but was not happy at getting injured

 

[Square and compass]

He's not good enough. If he was he'd be in the team.

There s players in the team who arent good enough- so how does that work?

 

[prenzlauerbear]

Andy King wasn't even starting regularly for Leicester in the Championship a few seasons ago and has suffered a horrendous injury in the time since.

 

[Joe 90]

Our midfield today was absolutely dire

Gerrard needs to drop his favourites

Don’t think he will though

 

[QueensferryCR3Bear]

I think King would be great in place of Arfield who needs a proper break.

 

[CM13]

Worrying gerrard seems to have Polster & Halliday in front of him at the moment. Looked sharp enough in the sub appearances so far but can only assume he’s not showing it in training.

 

[gersfanal]

If Scott Arfield is deemed to be fitter than Andy King then King really does have problems.

Not for the first time Arfield has come back, looking knackered, from International duty and has strangely, for me, been thrown straight back into the team !

 

[Bluebrox]

Not for the first time Arfield has come back, looking knackered, from International duty and has strangely, for me, been thrown straight back into the team !

Gerrard's insistence in constantly playing Arfield is absolutely nuts. And it shows time and time again.

 

[RabSpackman]

He’s looked sharp enough in his brief appearances

He has, he looks like he does the simple things consistently well and sorts out problems before they happen.

With a recent title win under his belt, he’s exactly the type that you want out there driving people on. Maybe he has a bigger part to play in the second half of the season? Seems a risk to keep him on ice until then though.

 

[RabSpackman]

Not for the first time Arfield has come back, looking knackered, from International duty and has strangely, for me, been thrown straight back into the team !

Arfield hasn’t had a break in over a year with combination of club & country football and it is starting to show a bit.. he looks weary at times.

 

[Tugay83]

Starting to look like this season's Gareth McAuley. Today would have been an ideal game for him. Shouldn't be playing Kamara and Aribo together in games where the midfield will be scrappy.

 

[Gee]

Kamara was in the centre half position at times today

should be nowhere near a blue jersey he simply isn’t good enough I just don’t get how some of our support go on about him ! He is living of a dummy on brown 10 month ago !

 

[bob1873]

Turning into a bizzare signing.

Have to agree I’d have thought King was the man to replace Jack whenever he was out.

 

[im_a_good_bluenose]

I think he will be recalled to Leicester in January being honest. Rodgers will be wanting him to get some game time, not sit on his backside watching from the stands.
I think it’s time Greg was back in the picture again IMO

 

[Gers11]

As per title.

He is a proven goal scoring midfielder, a premiership winner. Even described as a 'no brainer' of a signing by the manager. He can hardly get near our bench never mind start a game when our midfield offer us very little in atttacking options.

Strange signing

Waste of space and money, he'll go back down the round in the next window in my opinion.
