Jerseybean Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 Got me thinking about past players who have been out and out City fans before signing (excluding those who came through the academy route)sure many on here can provide the answer.

I personally feel Nigel will do all he can to keep Nagy providing he wants to stay.. genuinely think in the right system he can be a big player for us.

INCRED Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 1 hour ago, Dan Robin said: Welcome to City, Andy. Honestly I'm not much convinced with this signing: King's recent footballing experiences were negative and he arrives here in a complicated time for the club. I guess he will be useful off the pitch but...maybe not much in the games? We'll see... We’ll that’s a ringing endorsement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numero Uno Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 When you look at the goings on last season any player who actually wants to play football and wants to be at the club is a welcome addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KilworthFox Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 He is a decent fella and a good pro, but don't expect anything other than a steady player at best. He can seem invisible out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS4 on Tour... Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 2 hours ago, Sir Geoff said: Big Joe was in the same 73/74 Leeds team. So was Terry Cooper but he didn’t play enough games to win a medal due to a bad injury (broken leg around two years before?) and his comeback was too late to play enough games to qualify for the winners medal. But Mr Cooper did win the top division with Leeds a few seasons before that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdivision Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 Andy King has started 22 senior games in FOUR seasons and is 33 in October. I wish him well but I'm very sceptical about him having a significant impact on our season. I'm sort of thinking a new version of Chris Brunt and Henri Lansbury. It seems to me the Championship has moved on from these type of signings being successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to know how much say both King and Benkovic had in their respective loans to Leuvens? When you’re not in the 25 man PL squad, I wonder if the club kinda gently insisted they went on loan to their “feeder”. Think King is one to watch and then judge. If he’s still got the hunger, being a City fan you hope he has, he might put right the fact his career has stuttered / stalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
