It’s a good job David Beckham holds no grudges. The adidas poster boy is getting ready to wear his 100th cap for England under new manager Fabio Capello, the same manager who dropped him for Real Madrid 12 months ago. After a pretty tough 2007, brand Beckham is now a fully fledged player with the uh, mighty LA Galaxy, training with Arsenal in the UK and hoping to return to the England camp and earn his 100th cap - becoming only the fifth England player to hit the 100 mark.

I’m sure adidas will role out an all new Impossible is Nothing style campaign to go with Beckham returning - If Figo can play for Portugal and Zinedine for France until their mid-thirties, Beckham who seems to be as fit as a fiddle at 32, should have just a couple more years in front of him - maybe not quite enough for the next World Cup in 2010, but certainly enough for the qualifiers in 2008/09.
