As he prepares for his 10th year as a professional at Spurs, Ledley King admits it's 'a special feeling' to have progressed through the Academy ranks and captained the club to Wembley glory. Ledley lived every schoolboy's dream of walking up the famous steps to collect a trophy after our memorable win against Chelsea in the League Cup Final in February. And he has a message for our latest intake of Academy players - work hard and you'll get your chance. Ledley, 27, joined the club as a trainee in July, 1997 before signing professional forms in July, 1998 and made his first team debut as a substitute against Liverpool at Anfield in May, 1999. He said: "I can't speak for anyone else but being at a club for such a long time, of course you have that special feeling. "You grow up watching the first team players and to become one is something I suppose not a lot of young players do, especially then staying at one club for such a long time. It's a special thing for me. "The club has always produced players whether or not they've eventually moved on. "Jamie O'Hara is the latest to come through the ranks and he's done superbly. "There are plenty of quality players in the Academy at the moment and if they work hard, I'm sure they'll get their chance." ============================================================================== Ledley即将迎接他在热刺的第十个职业赛季 他承认从Academy到温布里的冠军是一个很特别的经验 Ledley让所有学童的梦想更为真实 他告诉学童们只要努力就会得到机会 他在97年加入我们 98年签下职业合约 99年安菲尔德首次上场比赛 King说: " 我没办法说其他的 但是在一家俱乐部这麽长的时间一定有特别的回忆 " " 看着一队的背影成长 我想没有很多年轻球员能这样待在一个球队这麽长的时间 " " 俱乐部总是能培育大量的球员 不论他们是否能留下 " " O'Hara是最新从academy上来的 他表现的非常棒 " " 现在在academy有很多出色的球员 如果他们够努力我相信他们会有机会的 " -- Ledley俨然成为吉祥物 XD -- Ｔo Dare is to do! --
