Well we have to disagree then. For me though King is a must pick if he is fit. Now that is an if but when he is fit he has it all as a central defender, strong, quick, fantastic awareness in reading a game. His England performances have always been first class, remember the performance he put up against Henry in Euro 2004 when Henry was on the top of his game. Henry scored late on due to Gerrard but there was little King could have done about that, generally King had him in his pocket. As for the three defenders you mentioned, Richards is a great prospect but at the moment I would prefer at right back, carragher retired and has not come back despite many opportunities and lacks pace, he could not work with Terry for example imo and Woodgate looks a classy central defender who fitness is an issue for but as a Spurs fan if I could only have one between him and King it is Ledley all day long.
