Ledley King says player Tottenham sold for £15m was so underrated
Ledley King played with some absolutely amazing players during his time at Tottenham.
King was lucky enough to call the likes of Gareth Bale, Luka Modric and Rafael Van der Vaart his teammates during his career.
Speaking on , King has been asked to name the best player he ever played with at Spurs, and while the usual suspects all got a mention, King also gave a shoutout to another underapprec💎iated player.
Ledley King says Michael Carrick was very underrated
King was spea♛king about the best players he played with when he touched on Michael Ca♎rrick.
The defender says that people don’t realis🧸e just how good Carrick was as a player, claiming that he was an incredibly balanced footballer who was at the top𒀰 level.
“It’s like Carrick right? People don’t realise how good he was, he was balanced. I love balanced players, I love that type of pla🍸yer. I spent 18 months with him and he was a top top player as well,” King said.
Michael Carrick wasn’t exciting
King is right, Carrick probably didn’t get the credit he deserved for h🤪is ability, but that’s bᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚecause he wasn’t all that exciting as a footballer.
As King says, he was a very balanced player, he was quite good at everything he did while not being excellent at any particular aspect o🌠f 🔥the game.
Carrick never really stood out for this reason. He’d keep your team ticking ove🍸r and he wouldn’t make many mistakes, but if you wanted something special, he wasn’t the man you were ever going to turn towards.
Carrick would, of course, leave Tottenham for Manchester United in a £15m before going on to win everything there was to win at Old Trafford, and while his trophy haul was very imp🌠ressive, the midfielder isn’t considered one of the best of🤡 his generation.
