I personally believe Beckham offers too little to be considered for the England squad. He is 33 now but nothing compared to what he once was, which was a world class footballer. Pace isn't everything in football but Beckham is no longer quick or sharp enough to play on the wing, and is unlikely to successfully adapt to a central role. His set-pieces aren't as good as they used to be either. The second point is the devaluation of caps. I agree that solely giving Beckham pitch-time to break a record is undermining Bobby Moore's achievement. Discuss. |

Yes he can still offer set pieces and dead ball situations so that is enough for me. |

He offers NOTHING else...so how is that enough? Plus, his delivery has declined in recent years. |

He has been a bit rusty but you can never write of Beckham. |
