Re: David Beckham to move to LA?
Too right.
You look at a player like zidanne, like best, like maradona and they can do things that take your breath away.......then you look at beckham, and err, well......
And yet beckham gets talked about by some people as if he is in the same league as these guys - he isn't even playing the same game as them ffs.
He hits a good dead ball and he doesn't look like he's been beaten with the ugly stick - that's about it.

I love the fact that you mentioned Zizou first..

Re: David Beckham to move to LA?
It seems his new team mates aren't exactly overjoyed with the amount of money Beckham is getting paid
http://www.soccer365.com/Home/page_89_134772.shtml
Under MLS rules, each side is allowed one star player who does not come under the salary cap - but the budget for the rest of the squad is limited to around £1million, or £50,000 per player per season.
By contrast Beckham will earn £500,000 a week from his salary, image rights and associated sponsorship - but not including personal endorsements.
