Ledley is back!!

[bubble07]

As long as he comes through Mondays reserve game he could be in line to start against the scum!

Ledley King is close to making his long-awaited Tottenham comeback following a knee injury.
The England centre-back has not played this season but is now on the road to recovery.

King played for 45 minutes in the reserve match with Fulham last week and could get another run-out with the second string on Monday.
Should he not suffer any relapse, the 27-year-old could be pushing for a return to face rivals Arsenal on December 22.

Spurs boss Juande Ramos said: "Ledley is getting better week by week.
"Last week he played 45 minutes for the reserves and I'm really happy with the way he is progressing.
"He's certainly not had any setbacks.
"We just have to make sure that he is ready to play."

My dad was also saying that on talksport poyet was interviewed saying that king was "very very very close" to returning ray:​

So he's not back yet then, just still on the road to recovery?

Is anyone else worried by the ..... "Should he not suffer any relapse" ..... to me that just sounds like we are tempting fate.

 

[justfookinhitit]

I'll only believe that he is going to be back when Poyet says he is "very, very, very, very, very, very, very close" to a return. There weren't enough "very's" in his quote.

Like every Spurs fan I want King back - but let's not get ahead of ourselves

Well he isn't injured as he has played half a match, so he isn't out like he has been.

Just not fit enough and wants a bit more time to get his fitness back.

 

[tRiKS]

think it's a mistake to play him in the reserve fixture. especially as it'll only be another 45 mins spell.

Better to have him on the bench at pompey and bring him on for the last 20 mins. Far better test far more useful test and i rather him get a relapse in a competetive game than a a reserve game. It'll look so small time and ameturish if he gets a whack in a reserve game.

I'll say it again. BIG TEAMS DON'T DO THIS.... the club is disarming us of ammunition against top bastard fans who ridicule the size of spurs.

My point is I won't see him playing tomorrow at Fratton Park.

YES THEY DO! Van Persie has just come though a reserve game in the last few days as well, and i would rather King gets another 45/75 mins in the reservs than a 20 min cameo at the weekend.

King has already said he needs to work on his fitness and playing 75mins in the reservs will be better for him than only playing 20.

No, even though the club could pick him to be part of it i cant see it happening.

 

[tRiKS]

Arsenal have just gone down another step for me. good.

So the thread title is a bit 'jump the gun'
