Lalas backs Becks’ England dream

LOS ANGELES Galaxy general manager Alexi Lalas insists he would “drive him to the airport” if it makes it easier for David Beckham to play for England.

Since his return to the international team, Beckham has been England’s most influential player, creating three of the four goals against Brazil and Estonia.

The 32-year-old is on the brink of leaving European football with Real Madrid on top of the Primera Liga and will move to the United States to join Los Angeles.
