This. Kingsley is decent enough cover for Olsson. Why create a headache for ourselves? | |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Stephen Kingsley on 09:50 - Jul 25 with 2828 views | JackSomething | We've got enough positions that need upgrading. With half a season of evidence, Olsson looks a good left-back. Not a superstar, but good enough for us. Kingsley had his ups and downs last season, but so did the majority of the team. He's shown some promise and as others have said, let's not give ourselves another position that needs a new signing. Besides, it would be nice to see one of our Falkirk signings work out... | |

Stephen Kingsley on 09:56 - Jul 25 with 2792 views | headcleaner | Simply not good enough. We want to improve not stand still or go backwards and ideally, we need two players fighting for a start every week and Stephen isn't anyone's first choice | | | |

Kingsley is another year older and is coming off his first extensive PL experience, plus becoming a full international. Odds are he is going to improve and could well push Olsson this season. Stating that a 22-year old is simply not good enough off the back of around 15 PL appearance is nonsense. Besides to replace him with a 'better' player would almost certainly mean spending more than we would receive for selling him. With so many holes in the squad, left-back is probably at the bottom of the list for new signings, ahead of perhaps only goalkeeper. | |

I like him always does ok when he plays and doesn't kick up too much of a fuss if he doesn't start every game I wouldn't sell him decent squad player with his best years ahead of him | | | |

Anyone who saw his performance at Arsenal would be wary of letting him go. Even Thierry Henry was raving about him... Still young and could turn into a very good player. At worst he's decent cover for this season. | | | |

It's just not worth selling him for the kind of money they are likely to be offering. Finding cover for Olson is a headache not worth having. | | | |

Spot on Kingsley has been decent enough when he's played, yeah he's made a mistake or two, but he's young enough to have learnt and will learn from them, that said name me a player who hasn't made a mistake in our squad. He's good enough has backup and young enough to learn enough to become first choice. | |

He does now though because of the time he's been at the club, hence why gylfi is classed as trained in England with reading | | | |

No they dont. Player has to be trained for at least 3 years before the age of 21 withing the English pyramid system to be classed as homegrown. FACT. | |

Stephen Kingsley on 17:54 - Jul 25 with 1760 views | Zut_Alors | Keep him, for sure. I've often wondered whether he would work well in a back three, with Martin O operating as a wing back. | | | |

Gylfi joined Reading's academy when he was 16. We signed Kingsley when he was a 20 year old senior professional. It doesn't work the same way. | | | |

Correct. Has to be 3/4 years training under the age of 21 I believe? | | | |
Stephen Kingsley on 03:33 - Jul 26 with 1421 views | Dewi1jack | Keep Tidy enough backup Besides, if Kingsley was a RB he'd be starting! Saying that, there was times I wish we could have had anyone, even Ben Kingsley starting for us at RB! | |
| If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious. |
