Beckham's last four appearances have come off the bench and takes him to 107, one behind the record for an outfield player set by 1966 captain Bobby Moore.

The LA Galaxy star is not in Fabio Capello's squad this week and Peters said: "David Beckham has been great for the country, but it is time to look elsewhere."

And Peters feels the cap has been devalued with the amount of substitutions made.

"Bobby Moore was a great friend of mine - he played 108 games and played 90 minutes every game. There were no substitutes when I played. It was 1968 when they were brought in; even then Alf (Ramsey) didn't use that many."
