"I am not guaranteed to go to World Cup at all", says Beckham

Sunday 14th March, 2010 (ANI)
England midfielder David Beckham insists he is not certain to make manager Fabio Capello's 23-man squad for this summer's World Cup in South Africa.
Beckham also believes that the final few months of his Italian season with AC Milan are crucial for him.
"I am not guaranteed to go to the World Cup at all. I have got to work hard and then, hopefully, I will get my place. There are still a good few months left," The Daily Express quoted Beckham, as saying.
"Hopefully I can carry on playing for AC Milan and play well and get into the England squad," he added.
The 34-year-old's reason behind joining AC Milan on loan from LA Galaxy was to try and safeguard his England future.
However, in recent games coach Leonardo has been using him as a substitute, which have sparked fears that Beckham would not be able to put in the performance to impress Capello. (ANI)  Email this story to a friend

Former Australian cricket captain and noted television commentator Richie Benaud has said that he would prefer a Test match where the battle between bat and ball is on an equal footing, as in the case of England versus Pakistan, as opposed to a match "where only 17 wickets are taken and almost 1,500 runs are made in 29 hours of a Test match", as in the case of India versus Sri Lanka in Colombo this week.
