From The NOTW:
David Beckham is facing a backlash from England team-mates worried he has too much power over boss Sven Goran Eriksson.
Several England players have become increasingly alarmed about Beckham's incredible influence within the England camp. An England insider told me: "The players are becoming more and more concerned about how powerful Beckham has become.
"They all know he is extremely close to Sven and the pair talk to each other about tactics and team selection all the time.
"There is a growing feeling that Sven is listening too much to Beckham.
"It's as if the England team has recently been picked for the good of David Beckham, rather than the good of the country.
"Players are starting to suspect the England team is being run around what is best for David Beckham and how he can be made to look good."
