Man City ace Barry hopes Beckham does not give up on England

Manchester City midfielder Gareth Barry hopes England hasn't seen the last of David Beckham.

Fabio Capello appeared to call time on LA Galaxy star Beckham's 115-cap international career before Wednesday evening's friendly victory over Hungary, saying the 35-year-old was "too old" to be considered for selection.

Barry hopes Beckham adds to his caps - the most by an outfield player for England.

He said of Capello's decision: "I'm not sure what David's feelings towards that is.

"Hopefully, that won't be the end.

"He'll keep fighting. I know he'll probably want to."

He added: "Everyone knows what an icon and a legend he is."
