Questions marks surrounding Tottenham's King

Tottenham captain Ledley King may again be the subject of uncertainty in regards to playing for the England team.

National team boss Fabio Capello indicated he would like to be able to use the Spurs defender but was unsure about his knee injury.

"The problem with King is the knee," said Capello in regards to King's chances in the World Cup squad.

"We would have to speak with him and the club to decide something. The problem with King is he has to spend four days with the physios after playing a game.

"We have to make sure we choose the best players and the fittest players. They need to be fit, really fit. We will be 23 players and in the past England have taken injured players."
