He attends school at Moonstone Elementary where his teacher is Mrs MacIntosh. Wallace lives with his mother, father and little brother in Snug Harbour.
Alas, when you are David Beckham, and the world has a habit of placing you at its centre, that kind of perspective can be difficult to find.Wallace the Brave takes us through a year in the life of Wallace, his family and friends from one summer school holiday to the next. When he gets perspective on the decision in the months to come, Beckham may realise that it is the best for all concerned. He thought he had cushioned the blow by relinquishing the captaincy and had not counted on McClaren being quite so brutal as he was this week. It was time to go, although in the movie that plays in Beckham's head, in which he is always the hero - tragic or otherwise - it was not supposed to be like this. Beckham has given his country a great deal including a major hand in qualification for the last three major tournaments after the misery of the final days of Kevin Keegan's regime.īy continually stating the importance of the England team, he has also used his status to protect the sanctity of international football in this country at a time when it is continually under threat from the interests of the Premiership's biggest clubs
But now it is done, it makes a great deal of sense and he is unlikely to encounter much opposition to it among the media and supporters. McClaren's decision was difficult, brave and may even rebound on him. Beckham said after his goal against Ecuador that Wayne Rooney had teased him about his dominance of the dead-ball situations during the summer in Germany - a joke, but perhaps one with a serious edge to it.
He does still have an impressive goalscoring record - 17 in 94 caps - but then he did take all the free-kicks and, up until, Euro 2004, the penalties too. That, of course, is an answer that can only be delivered on the pitch and, since the 2002 World Cup finals, the evidence of Beckham's decline has been increasingly obvious. But more recently the mood towards Beckham in the squad has been: what makes him so special? Four years earlier, just before the 2002 World Cup, when Beckham's star was at its highest, such perks would have been accepted. They were not big issues in the grand scheme of things, but when you consider that this is an England squad of multimillionaire footballers cooped up together for five weeks, they take on a greater significance.
