Struggling Scottish side Hearts have revealed that their Ghana international Laryea Kingston is injured once again.

Kingston was surprinsingly left out of Saturday's draw at home to Falkirk as he had recovered from a hamstring injury.

But the key player's his absence for the struggling side came as surprise because he was expected to revive the fortunes of the club.

Manager Csaba Laszlo revealed that Kingston didn`t feature on Saturday because - wait for it - he was injured.

Laszlo said: 'Laryea told me that he was injured and that he had a hamstring injury so he could not even be on the bench.

"If the player has an injury then I cannot tell him that he must play".

Kingston was jeered by his own fans when last week in their away after he fell out with the coach over his fitness for Hearts matches.

They were expected to up the octave of criticism in his first home match for the club this season. soccernet
