 England captain Steven Gerrard said he expects Beckham to bounce back, just as he did after being dropped following the 2006 World Cup. “He's had some fantastic performances, some fantastic goals, memories. He was a fantastic captain. I've learned a lot from David and it's been a pleasure to play alongside him. If he has played his last game, he'll certainly be missed because, both on and off the pitch, he's a great guy.” Gerrard said. (AP Photo)

 “The focus is on the team and preparing my tendon,” Beckham said. Further Beckham added, “I've been hitting it so hard for the last two years, every month that it's obviously tough on my body. It's about getting back this season as soon as possible, playing the rest of the season and then taking the time to get the rest in, prepare my body and be ready for next season.'' (AP Photo)
