Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is convinced defender Ledley King will go to the World Cup finals.[LNB] The 29-year-old has been in superb form for Spurs during their march into the Premier League's top four, and with question marks still hanging over Rio Ferdinand's fitness and John Terry's form, he has been tipped to get the nod from England coach Fabio Capello.[LNB]King's own injury problems have severely limited him in recent seasons, but Redknapp is confident he can be nursed through between games.[LNB]Asked on BBC Radio 5 Live's Sportsweek show if he thinks the Londoner will go to South Africa, his club manager said: "Yes, I do, I think he will go, I think he will go to the World Cup.[LNB]"He has just been absolutely amazing. His form has been unbelievable.[LNB]"He can play every six days, which is the gap between the World Cup games. It wouldn't be a problem for him.[LNB]"As long as he gets his rest and the medical staff - which they will do, they will know exactly how to look after him in between games - then it wouldn't be a problem for him."[LNB]
