Agreed, that stood out last night.
I suppose there could be a couple of, or three reason's for Beckham giving him the captain's armband.

1. He was the next most senior player on the pitch.
2. He is Beckham's mate.
3. He was the nearest at the time Beckham walked off.

I think Phil Neville would have problem's plying his trade in the conference, let alone Man Utd reserves.

There are a few player's fast approaching thirty years of age at Man U, I am sure some changes will be made in the very near future.
