King expects lengthy career
Ledley King has given Tottenham a major boost by revealing his intention to play beyond 2012, when the club's new training complex is due to be up and running.
The 28-year-old centre-back undergoes his own fitness regime to manage a chronic knee condition and this season he has started four out of five matches and is expected to feature against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Spurs looked at the facilities at AC Milan and the Australian Institute of Sport before drawing up plans for Bulls Cross, which is planned to be completed in three years and King insists he will around when it is completed.
When asked if he would be still be playing in 2012, the Spurs man said: "Yes. You look at some of the facilities that will be at the club and you want to still be a part of it."
Spurs make the short trip to West London, one which Harry Redknapp's side have failed to taste victory in since 1990, but King sees the weekend fixture as the perfect opportunity to grab three points and amend that record.
"Four wins from five games is a good start for us," he added. "We're disappointed with the last result, but Sunday is a chance for us to strike back in the best possible way against another top team."
"We know Chelsea's players well enough and we've all seen their quality, it's always a tough game against them.
"But we have done well against them in recent games and they will be aware of our qualities as well.
