Tottenham Hotspur legend Ledley King will not form part of new boss Nuno’s coaching staff.

But if and it's a big if Nuno has really chosen his team- then let's hope he gets it right! Ledley can continue to get his badges and come back one day to partner Mason in a management duo. Short term it maybe negative but the long term could mean that King goes away with something to prove and if we know anything about him from the past he will get over anything in his way!Disappointing.
Defence was a shambles let’s be honest.I'm really not gonna miss him.
Fans have to stop associating good players with being good coaches. Some are but most are not. They are two different skill sets.
Teaching or coaching a player does not come easy to top class players. They can’t break the game down the way some coaches are able to do. King probably defended on instinct but teaching that to a young player is difficult.
I hope he develops into a good coach but from what I hear that is not the case. Ryan Mason on the other hand is well thought of and is someone we need to develop.
Not really, Ledders doesn't have many of his coaching badges yet.Disappointing.
Unless it's a strip club, don't keep your hopes up. Like all true Spurs fans I love the guy. When my girls bought me a bundle of Spurs shop gifts that included a Spurs Teddy Bear, I instantly named it "Ledley" and it sits with me by my laptop to this day. He's better off being an ambassador for the club and not letting his reputation being tarnished as a failure as coach/manager.Maybe he told us he wants to manage a club now?
This is unnecessary. Ryan has been doing a great job in the youth setup by all accounts and is well respected at the club.I admire and revere Ledley King as a Spurs Legend like the next guy, but it's the right thing to do... as for Ryan Mason - I think there is a place for him, because he can counsel his best buddies if they're not selected on account of performance...
