Everyone from Micah Richards to Sir Alex Ferguson have voiced their opinion on Beckham's fitness and whether he will make his 100th cap. Ex-England captain Terry Butcher on the other hand has declared that he thinks it unlikely that the elusive 100caps will ever come.
Ferguson has said that Capello has made a decision based on the facts regarding match-fitness, and England defender Micah Richards writing for the BBC believes that Beckham will get his chance.
Arsene Wenger has come out to say how impressive David Beckham has been whilst he has been training with the Arsenal squad. He has recognised the desire that Beckham has shown to prove his fitness and dedication to the job in hand. On the other hand many agree that you should not feel obliged to pick a player for sentimental reasons and Capello is certainly not about to go down that route. Other Premiership managers have expressed support for Beckham in the form of Steve Bruce, Harry Redknapp and Martin O'Neill demonstrating how well Beckham is regarded amongst those who know him best.
At least Beckham can be sure that if he gets picked again for England it will be because he has thoroughly deserved the chance.
