Pretty cool ... look at this from a good bit of distance (if not obvious already):

If you squint it works up close as well.
 
Sometimes I randomly think about Ledley and remember how class he was. I think one reason is because it puts me in a place of comfort, he's a club legend and won't/can't dick us around like so many of the other top players we've had in recent times.

How much I'd love to have a healthy King in the team.

to be fair, if he had been fit I doubt he would have stayed with us for long..
 
Oh no Oz, I can't agree with that. This revisionist crap that suggests he would have been off is just that.

it may be revisionist, but considering woodgate who wasn't at the same level as king got a move to real Madrid wouldnt be off the mark to suggest king may have followed suit. We cant even keep our good players now lets alone in the 90'sa and early 00's when our finances were pants
 
Not off the mark at all. He didn't follow suit, and that's how he should be judged.

don't get me wrong, king is a spurs legend, undisputedly.
all I was suggesting was when our fans go on about how good he was or how good he could have been given his injuries etc they are doing the same thing; revising history to suggest he was a better player than he was.

talent alone dosent make a great player, I don't care if his talent made him the best CB England has ever seen, the fact of the matter is, he hardly got on the pitch..and if he did get on the pitch I very much doubt given the talent he possessed that he would have stayed with us for very long.
 
He's such a nice guy. Seems very shy though. Probably a lot to do with a room full of strangers that think he's a fucking legend in front of him.
