With David Beckham's untimely injury for AC Milan yesterday, I have taken a look at the top five English Right-Wingers who could feature for England this summer in the World Cup. There are four out-and-out choices and one lower-league player who Capello should keep his eye on. With a lot of options for his squad for South Africa, Fabio Capello has a lot to ponder come time to announce his squad for South Africa. Here are my five players for the Right for England.

Aaron Lennon (Tottenham)

95446277

The obvious choice, again if he is fit. His form at the start of this season was immense and should be considered as a major challenger for the Right-Hand slot. His ability to take on anyone who is in front of him has made him catch the eye of many in England.

Shaun Wright-Phillips (Manchester City)

97411284

He scored in the friendly against Egypt recently but hasn't been in the best of forms. When on song, Shaun can rip apart any defence, and with plenty of time between now and the World Cup, he has enough time to capture his form.

Theo Walcott (Arsenal)

97680078

Theo Walcott scored a hat-trick in the qualifying rounds but has struggled with injury this season. His pace will be a great scare for any defence during the summer, and with the ability to play in attack as well, his versatility should see him on the plane.

Jimmy Bullard (Hull)

97680048

He is the only Beckham-like player England can offer, in my opinion. His ability to seek out players anywhere on the pitch is a threat for all teams. For me, he should be on the plane; for Capello, he might not be the man.

Anthony Pilkington (Huddersfeild Town)

92594961

He has been ripping defences up in League One all season. His pace, ability to play on both wings, his presence in front of goal, and also his ability to take players on is one I think a lot of teams in the Premier League should look at. One to watch for sure.
