david beckham will not be the scape goat for england's football team this world cup
beck's form and pace has not been the sharpest
but in all of england's three cup victories the difference in the game was backham's foot:
he put it in the right place against paraguay for the OG in 1-0 win
his cross to crouch for a header in the last 10 broke a deadlock against T & T
today against ecuador he banged it over the ecuadorian wall and down off the post
"It was an ugly performance but it was what we wanted and we'll take ugly performances," the England skipper told BBC Radio Five Live. "It was nice to silence a few people who have been critical. I can handle my criticism and I'll prove them wrong. It was a great feeling to get a goal and put us into the quarter-final."
england's 4-5-1 formation today played to the strength of the team
it is good to see guys like gerrard and lampard pushing up not far behind rooney with cole and beckham pushing up the flanks
it will be interesting to see what shape england will take against portugal or holland
the english have not been pretty or flashy but they are bent on making it
