I read all of the English papers online and no one seems to be bringing up the wobbly nature of the captain of the English side.

It is that they need him on a pedastal to cover him and sell papers... I almost think he begged off becuase he was saving himself for the next two games which is an even worse sin to an American-being a quitter.

Beckham's foot probably hurt like hell...running four or five miles just six weeks after breaking it. They need him at 100% to face Argentina. If he's not at full strength, the English side is toast.
