Stoke No2 Kemp admits Woodgate exciting management

Stoke City assistant manager Dave Kemp admits they're delighted with the first days working with former Tottenham defender Jonathan Woodgate.

Kemp was purring after seeing Woodgate play a magnificent 45 minutes at the heart of City's rearguard against Sheffield Wednesday.

Kemp said: "If we can keep him fit, then we have one of the best centre-halves in the business.

"You don't get a move to Real Madrid unless you are a top player and, let's face it, he would still be at the Bernabeu if he had stayed clear of injuries."
