Hearts boss open to recalling Ghana ace
Hearts manager Csaba Laszlo insists Laryea Kingston still has a future at Tynecastle despite being hit by a club maximum four-week fine.
The Ghana international was punished by the SPL outfit last week for disrespecting Hearts by claiming they were not as important as his country.
Laszlo insists he would never be critical of a player's nation and believes the players should just as respectful towards their employers.
Although Hearts made public Kingston's hefty fine, Laszlo insists he does not have a problem with the player and has backed his quality.
Laszlo would be happy handing him a recall, although he believes Kingston must give 100 per cent to win over the club's fans.
No problem
"With Larry Kingston we made a statement in the direction of the media," Laszlo told the club's
official website. "Me, personally, I don't have any problem with Larry Kingston.
"I am happy about every player which can play for his country, but I said to you before you cannot say the club is not so important. You must respect the club.
"If we respect the national team and prepare you here for the national team you must respect our work.
"If he is [at] top fitness and also the supporters need to see he gives 100 per cent. It is indifferent whether he is playing 20 minutes or 90 minutes. We need to see him in the right direction.
Acceptance
"The acceptance must be there [from supporters]. In this business if you don't have the performance you cannot get acceptance and this is the dangerous game.
"This is why Larry is not training direct with the first team, indirect yes, but he must get his performance back to have a good game in normal league games.
"Larry Kingston can definitely help the team with his football knowledge and experience. He is a good player.
"We can talk about a lot of things but Larry Kingston is one which has as lot of ability, especially in this league and if he is 100 per cent fit and his head is clear he can help any team."
