Tottenham hero Ledley King: I loved being with away fans at Chelsea

Tottenham hero Ledley King has no regrets taking in defeat at Chelsea in the away end.

King has regularly been seen on the punditry sofa since his retirement but took on a new perspective in west London by joining the Spurs faithful in the stands.

"I've wanted to go and sit in with the fans for a while," King told Tottenham's official website.

"I really enjoyed it. I went through the turnstiles at a stadium probably for the first time since I was about 18. I almost forgot how it all worked!

"I was looking down and thinking back to all the times I'd run out at Stamford Bridge and remembering what it was like to be down there but you soon get caught up in it all from a fan's perspective.

"There was so much passion and I'll be back in there again before too long,"
