Beckham pushes for selection

David Beckham has suggested England manager Fabio Capello should turn to his experience against Croatia in Zagreb.

Arsenal teenager Theo Walcott was handed a surprise start on the right side of midfield in the 2-0 win over Andorra on Saturday.

Capello's England are now preparing for what promises to be a much sterner test on Wednesday.

And Beckham, who came on as a substitute at the weekend to land his 104th cap, believes experience could play a key role in securing victory over the Croats.

He said in The Sun: "It's good to have experience in the squad and we've got that with the players we have.

"Myself and players who have played in some of the biggest games in the world. We have that experience and we will need it on Wednesday.

"It will be a different challenge to Andorra, we all know that. Now we have to get our rest and make sure we are ready for the Croatia game.

"Andorra was a challenge, but Zagreb will be a challenge in another way."
