Alright, enough people in the world have written articles about David Beckham, almost everyone has an opinion, and most "true" soccer fans don't like him, or at least think he's overrated. thats fine, but i like the dude.
He's played for the best club teams in the world in Manchester United and Real Madrid, won hardware with both teams, was a captain for ManU and a captain for the English national team. he's played in three World Cup (they're every 4 years) and he's got a legit chance playing for the next one in 2010. He had some success in MLS here in America but i don't think he realized how bad the talent level is in the league and there's only so much one man can do.
For the last month David Beckham has played with AC Milan, the top club team in Italy, in a league that boasts some of the worlds best player including the best in the world, Kaka, and former World Player Ronaldhino. And Beckham has earned a starting spot and has already scored twice and had numerous assists.
Hate on him all you want, but its almost the same as Shaq being the best center still, or Ray Allen leading the Celtics in scoring, or Brett Favre still competing, or Curt Schilling, Micheal Jordan his last few years...
These guys didn't just play late into their thirties, but they were among the best in their prospective leagues. Beckham is the same, AC Milan would not be offering the amount of money (11 million) or a starting spot on an amazing team if Beckham was washed up. He still is among the best at his position (right mid-field) and will be on the English national team for at least a few more years.
I enjoy watching Beckham plays, he's a hard worker and he good looking...what?!
And yes, i'm actually watching the games, not just going on highlights, as i'm writing this i'm watching Milan v Lazio and Beckham has gotten 2 assists on crosses to Ambrisoni and Pato, and a third goal from Beckham to Pato was called back on offsides.
He's good, just enjoy the fact we still get to watch him play! You only hate on him because you're jealous of him, just like you hate on Leonardo Dicaprio, Tom Brady, Brad Pitt, and Micheal Jordan (i was a hater in high school).
Beckham today with two assists:
