Becks ready to step into Fabio’s shoes

David Beckham has thrown his hat into the ring to become the next England boss. With uncertainty hanging over the future of incumbent Fabio Capello following England’s dismal showing at the World Cup, the 35-year-old Beckham believes he is the person to restore his country’s credibility on the world stage. Apparently Beckham cites the success of young Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola, who stepped into management straight from his playing days with great success. The odds on Beckham succeeding Capello have been shortened to 20-1 in recent days.
