Snapped his Achilles last night

I feel for the guy, I think that will be that for his international aspirations, sad stuff.

Sad for him, if England were to go all the way would be gutting for him. Wonder whether he'll retire now.

Really feel for the guy, he's worked his *** off to show he's a main contender for a first eleven spot and it's all in vein

Got to feel for him. His attitude towards being included in the England squads never mind the world cup have been an example to all. Think that's his career over personally.

Disappointed for him.He got over all the crap he went thought after his sending off to become one of England's greatest players.

Read they're saying 3 or 4 months possible comeback. I'd be amazed at that. I'd think it's closer to 9 months and he would then have to get fitness and muscle back. At that age and without the motivation of the World cup which was clearly driving him on maybe he'll asses his future. If he does have to then at least he had that reception at OT the other night.

He'll be 35 in May, tough ask to come back at that age.

Does anyone else get the feeling that England's World Cup preparations are cursed? Poor old Capello, it's 1 step forward 2 (hobbling) steps back for him at the moment.

OK Beckham probably wouldn't have started, but you'd look to him to come off the bench and try and turn things round with a quality cross or set-piece if needed. Who else have we got to come in with those qualities?

Feel sorry for him. He'll be missed in the WC.

Only heard about it this morning. Gutted for him as was a professional on and off the pitch. A lot of players would do well to look at his attitude. He was the best player for Milan by a mile when they played us in the Champs League last week. Still dont know how he wraps his foot so far around a ball.
