Beckham's performance on the pitch for England has been really terrible since the last world cup. And yet, he still has Ericksson's support and trust and is still given first team start in England's game. He was terrible during the Euro2004 and also the world cup qualifying matches,just like yesterday against N.Ireland. I just dont get it...if a player isnt performing up to his best,then he should be dropped. it's not like England doesnt have any other potential players to fill Beckham's place. England's still got talented Shaun Wright-Phillips and Joe Cole(who was really impressive last night). Not only I,but many others, are not happy with Beckham and also Ericksson's tactics.
