LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham insists that he is fit enough to wear the England jersey on Feb. 6th in a friendly against Switzerland. Beckham has been training at Arsenal and is hoping to acquire his 100th cap.
New England manager Fabio Capello is already confronted with a unique situation with Beckham playing in MLS and currently in the off-season.
The simple fact is that Capello is a very autocratic coach who makes all the decisions but this could be a PR nightmare if he doesn’t select Beckham especially going for his 100th cap against Switzerland.
It’s a meaningless game except for the introduction of a new manager…….
Beckham was down in Brazil endorsing a new academy and although I have been out-spoken that he has been brought up by his father and in the Manchester United system respecting the game of soccer (under Alex Ferguson of course) and good things are to come. Enough is enough, I really don’t want to hear more about his academy ventures. Get your 100th cap and produce on the field next season in MLS?
Will Beckham produce for the Galaxy in the upcoming season?

  1. Wow, Becks told no. Setting the stage for another Beckham comeback, though.

    Brazil goes to Croke Park in Ireland for an International friendly on Wednesday as well.
