Cheers.....Which England manager gave David Beckham the captaincy?

[champers]

I am sure I know this. Peter Taylor, the ex Palace and Spurs player, who was caretaker manager v Italy. I watched the match at a bar in New York so remember it well.

On the fields Diego or Capello (either the first and last I think) and at home it is Victoria

[Metropolitian]

But it was for me an unknown manager who gave him the red armband. Not a big manager back then.

Yes, the great Alfio "Coco" Basile. My favorite Argentine football personality.

FIFA , video game series, came out with the upcoming seasonal year as the number.

Sometimes only the last two (FIFA 94 in 1995 ) and sometimes the whole year (FIFA 2000 in 1999).

But which one FIFA <number> was not ?
