The news keeps getting bad to worse for Ledley King. Out of the England squad with a metatarsal fracture before the World Cup and because his name is not Wayne Rooney, the amount of medical attention that was devoted to him was quite pathetic compared to the state of the art care that Rooney got. He is now out again undergoing a knee surgery because of an injury that he sustained during training.
Martin Jol put a brave face on this by saying, “We must get on with it but it is a blow. He is one of our best players and one of the best defenders in England.
“I think we will solve the problem from within the ranks.”

Its a blow yes, but Davenport or Gardener can deputise, Huddlestone could even cover if needs be, we even have Devritt newly signed so no great problem, King will be back on his thrown in no time and we may lern something about the squad players we have alog the way, would be nice to see some of the younger players getting a chance.
A terrible blow, Spurs need their best player as we missed him big time at the end of last season.
