Save the King! (for NLD)

Think about it this way - who's going to pose more threat to our goal





























So put him in for the Wigan game

We shouldnt have to rely on King to beat Wigan.

Definitely agree with your thoughts on Harry. Credit where its due mate

The way Arsenal are playing we won't need a back-line, OR strikers if Koeisisienyl and Song continue to bang em' in!

We need to play him. He needs to play once a week to avoid picking up injuries. He can't train so giving him regular weekly football isn't a strain on him. He'd pick up injuries much quicker if he was taking 2 weeks out then playing.

King against Wigan for me then see where we are before NLD, thing is with his knee we could wrap him up in cotton wool for the next couple of weeks and the day before the NLD he could break down. A real shame but there you go.

Need to play him when we can

I reckon King could play against Wigan and Arsenal, although of course its a risk, but 3 points is 3 points, we should always be looking to play our best team and we have more chance of beating Wigan with King in our team

i did love it when he said after game....

we got done by city and it hurt,but i didn't panick as i knew i had scotty coming in.

thats the famous harry man-management at work,i've never been in the harry out brigade,i have however given him a bit of stick from time to time.....rightly or wrongly.....

on your point op,i would risk our other guy's being able to do the job up at wigan,and save king for NLD.....

if we can get the 3 points in the derby,that really will give us a head of steam and a gap over arsenal with that game in hand.....

There was only ONE King at WHL yesterday....

I think one of the biggest mistakes we made last season was saving our big players for certain games, the Wigan one included.

I just think you shouldn't play games with Lady Luck & we should be fielding our strongest team at all times. We shouldn't worry who might get injured & when. Just play King in all league games when he is fit. If he cant make the NLD then so be it. What if we save him for the NLD then he breaks down in training the day before, then we've lost him for 2 games instead of 1.

We played weakened sides too often last season, resulting in draws instead of likely wins, had we played full strength. I think this, if anything, cost us 4th last season & we shouldnt make the same mistake again.

Play our strongest team for each game, we are in no position to think we can play a weaker team and walk over teams like Wigan, we found that out last season

Ledders love in!

Ledley...

Well said Chronic, the only thing that's taken the edge off it for me was hearing him talk to the press about Modric's contract. Surely all that's required is a conversation between him & Levy?

Anyway.. 4-0!!!

King needs to play every prem game if fit for me. The guy is a different class and our defence are completely different when he's in the team. We should beat Wigan without King but we have even more chance with King so he needs to play to keep the Tempo up. 3 points is another must so let's not think about the Arsenal game just yet
