Everyone likes a 99. Delicious ice-cream, crunchy cone and then the cheap thrill of a Cadburys Flake. What could be better.
What's that David.
You don't like 99. You want 100. Marketing deals you say. Centurion Meal at Burgerking. Ton Up aftershave. 100 Caps but still great Hair Hair Gel.
Oh.
I have a feeling Fabio missed the memo from marketing on that one. He is alleged to have told Beckham that he is not fit enough for the friendly against Switzerland but that he is still in his plans.
Lets face it. Playing in the US is not going to help his case.He is training with Arsenal but I reckon he is just helping Adeboyer to braid his hair.
It is extremely rare for a non Premier League playing player to make an England team these days, never mind somebody who plays in Major League Soccer.
As England only have meaningless friendlies for the next 6 months I am sure he will be brought into one of the squads and get his 100th cap.
But it shows Capello is not a man to bow down, either to press pressure or star power. McLaren dropped Beckham from his first squad too but soon Fleet Street's finest were picking the team and Becks was back.
If Beckham comes back this time it will have to be on merit. Capello brought him back into the fold at Real Madrid last year and he was a success. With Wright-Phillips, Bentley and possibly Agbonlahor ahead of him in the pecking order at the moment, it may be a long road back.
Now where did I leave that double sided T shirt, it had 100 Caps for Becks on one side and Rudy for the White House 08 on the other
