Andy King leans forward in his chair when he's talking about his passion for the game and the difficulties to adapt once a footballer's playing career comes to end.
"I think it's more now," when asked whether he still has the same motivation as a teenager coming through the ranks at Leicester. "When you're young you feel like it's something you do for enjoyment but when you get older, you realise that the life of a player is not going to last forever and you want to maximise the feeling you get after the game."
The 34-year-old is in the twilight of his career as he juggles playing a key role in Nigel Pearson's squad and coaching at the same time. On Saturday, he was pulling out some dance moves on the pitch after Alex Scott scored his first league goal of the season in the 2-0 win over Blackpool.
