Capello has a heart of stone ...
And this is just what England team needs right now !!
He dropped Beckham for a mediocre little friendly game against Switzerland.
Quite rightly too. Beckham hasn't played once since November. He thought
running around the pitch a few times with Les Arse would pass as being match
fit, lmao.
Many will claim Beckham's past service more than earned him the right to a 100th
cap against Switzerland at Wembley.
Some will be shocked at Capello's apparent lack of sentimentality. That he has
this heart of stone and doesn't understand the national psyche when it comes to
the heroes of St George.
Yet Beckham's reaction last night to his omission — pulling out of a gala charity
event on the pathetic grounds that LA Galaxy wanted him back for ‘fitness
assessments' — confirms just how wise Capello is.
Having been his boss at Real Madrid he knows all about the Beckham circus and
the destabilising effect the player's ego can have on a team. When Beckham
doesn't get his own way, he thinks of no one but himself. As he did at the World
Cup of 2002 when, clearly unfit, he still managed to persuade the all-too-easily
convinced Eriksson that he HAD to be there.
The outcome was that players who should have been in the team were denied
their opportunity. Beckham had to come first — especially in Japan and Korea
where the Beckham Brand earned him millions.
There was a similar scenario at Madrid. Out of the side and also dropped by
England, his self-preservation instinct kicked in once more.
If they don't want me, I know someone who does. Hence the mad dash for the
States.
If he had waited, if he had been able to manage that enormous pride of his, he
could have had another couple of seasons in European football — and his 100th
cap would have been a formality.
Even then, there would have still been time for some California Dreamin' and
zillions of dollars.
Letting down a charity because he is pissed off !!
This is not good behaviour Mr Beckham !!
You chose your destiny and many people dont have that option.
I've had enough of this ego fuelled idiot - I hope he never plays for England again
to be honest.
Go back to Hollywood with all your bling and superstar buddies Mr.....
Goodbye and good riddance !!
