RUSTENBURG, June 6 (AFP): England defender Ledley King is confident that he can be the man to fill in for injured captain Rio Ferdinand during the World Cup, despite fears over his own fitness.
The Tottenham centre-back can only train up to twice a week due to an ongoing knee injury, raising concerns that he will not be able to endure the stresses of the World Cup, where he may need to play seven games in a month.
