Yes, he’s a senior citizen now in footballing years. Should be able to dust himself off and resume captaining his team

Klinsmann will be lucky if Sonny ever agrees to speak to him again, let alone play while he's manager.
You're already wrong......
You spelled "always" incorrectly.
Erm, the guy has an incredible record in huge games. He’s probably one of the best big game players out there.
Asian Games.. its a medal, not a trophy. It's a really minor tournament that no one gives a shit about except for Korea.
so looks like he will be involved Sat then.
blimey the list of important goals....
Champs League v Dortmund
Goons (belters)
Chavs (abolutley insane run, one on ones)
Belter late v Spam at 0-1
Man City Champs league both ties...
Can't be bothered to come up with any more
Klinny is a bit of a whining git isn't he?
But, he is one of the genuinely world class players to have played for us in my time supporting (since 84):
- Hoddle
- Lineker
- Waddle
- Gascoigne
- Klinnsman
- Sheringham
- Bale
- Modric
- Kane
Who else would make that list? Son? Dembele? Vertonghen? Walker?
Guess that depends on how you define world class, I guess.
King easily one of the worlds best centerback(....when fit..
) If we sadly acknowledge that arse Henry was world class he says King was the best.On HOW you define a world class player pretty easy for me. Would the individual have made an international 22 man squad in his position over the decade of his peak years.
Difficult because the style and tactics have changed so much over the years. You can't put greavsie and pele in a 21st century team just as Messi wouldn't fit into a 70s team. I really think "world class" needs to be divided chronologically.King easily one of the worlds best centerback(....when fit..

I honestly think you could stick Pele in any time period. He was very strong, a great team player and what he did with a ball that weighed more than Fred Flintstone's bidet beggars belief.
I rate Stanley Matthews in a similar way(what i have seen of him).In his day,the balls and boots really were heavy.Would love to see what he could do with modern footwear.
Berbatov over Sheringham

I believe Henry said Taribo West was the toughest centre back he ever faced.
Think his words on King were that he was simply the only defender he faced who would tackle fairly. No shirt grabbing etc.
Definitely Son. Maybe Maddison if he keeps his form from the start of the season.
