King admits every Tottenham game is a bonus if he doesn't sustain injury

Tottenham captain Ledley King is pleased to end the game without sustaining an injury. The classy centre-back has been cruelly savaged by a chronic knee problem and as a consequence rarely able to play two games in a week and does not train on a regular basis.

And King has admitted he constantly plays in fear of injury, as he told Hotspur magazine: "When I come off the pitch at the end of a game without injury, I feel relieved.

"I don't play in pain, but I do play in discomfort and there are restrictions. I've learned to adapt my game."
