Davids uncertain of Spurs future

Dutch star Edgar Davids says he is unsure whether he will be a Tottenham player at the start of next season.

The 33-year-old has another year left on his contract - having joined the White Hart Lane side at the beginning of the current campaign.

"I don't know what I will be doing next season. I'm happy at the club and we have a great team," he said.

"It is a tough decision for me because maybe you do want to go home. I will have to think about it."

Meanwhile, with the World Cup just over a month away, the former Holland international said 19-year-old Spurs midfielder Aaron Lennon deserved a place in the England squad for Germany.

Why can't England survive without Rooney?

"Aaron is doing very well now," added the former Ajax player.

"He has had a good run in the team and like all young players he has faced some difficulties but now he is even better than before.

"That is a good thing for him. When Wayne Rooney went to the European Championship no-one said he was too young. It depends on what the coach Sven-Goran Eriksson wants."

Davids also believes England can do well in the World Cup without Rooney, who may miss the tournament after suffering a foot injury.

"Why can't England survive without Rooney? Maybe somebody else will stand out. People should not be making this so dramatic," he said.

"Rooney is a world-class player but England have other world-class players.

"They have very good goalscoring midfielders like Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard. If Jermain Defoe or Peter Crouch is put in the team you still have a great chance of scoring.

"People should not be so dramatic and cry because the king is dead, long live the king."
