Title: Beckham stands down as captain Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, July 2, 2006, 10:09:39 Seriously? I don't see why. I think he has done a good job, despite what others may think. He sets a great example in his prfessionalism and his attitude to te game, much like Shearer did.
Terry next? Title: Beckham stands down as captain Post by: Whits on Sunday, July 2, 2006, 10:14:47 respect to him, just watch the statement on SSN's, he walked out almost crying, you could see how much it meant to him.

Title: Beckham stands down as captain Post by: STFCDude on Sunday, July 2, 2006, 10:35:33 Lennon played much better than Beckham did yesterday. Even with ten men, Lennon was still skinning the Portugese for fun. Beckham is in the side for two things. Publicity, and set peices (which mostly have been shit this tournament).

I'd have said our set pieces have been one of our strengths. Title: Beckham stands down as captain Post by: Spud on Sunday, July 2, 2006, 11:36:55 John Terry should be Captain now then.

Three of our 6? goals came from Beckham though! He assited in two and scored one for himself! I think he's a great player. He links up well with Gary Neville and tracks back to help out the defence, which players like Lennon, Joe Cole etc, do not. But thats nothing against Lennon or Joe Cole as they are great players and i think if we were to use the 5 in midfield again, i would go with Beckham, Gerrard and Hargreaves/Carrick in the middle with Lennon/Wright Phillips and Joe Cole - right and left wing 8) All credit to Beckham. He was a great captain. Either Terry or Gerrard should be captain now, me thinks. Title: Beckham stands down as captain Post by: pauld on Sunday, July 2, 2006, 12:07:30 Stevie G. 100%. If you ever want a captain's performance to drag a team out of the s**t and back from the dead, he's your man. And he can miss crucial penalties just like Beckham did, so he's got the credentials!
Title: Beckham stands down as captain Post by: Dazzza on Sunday, July 2, 2006, 18:16:07 Good move, it means Mclaren is not faced with the difficult decision of handing the captaincy over and it also takes away the pressure and dilemma of picking him ahead of the younger Lennon.
I’m not fond of players retiring early from International football. Certainly there’s some dignity at going out on top but if you’re intending to play club football for a few more seasons then it should be an honour to represent your country whatever the role or extent of involvement may be.
