King: improve or we’ll face drop

TOTTENHAM captain Ledley King has warned their under-achieving squad must improve — or “we will go down”.

Harry Redknapp blasted some of the players for what he feels is a lack of the stomach necessary in a relegation dogfight after watching them slump to a stoppage-time 1-0 defeat at Wigan — a fifth Barclays Premier League match without a victory.

Spurs had started brightly, but faded badly during the second half and failed to provide new £15 million striker Jermain Defoe the service to deliver a goal on his return from Portsmouth.
