Beckham to US league

[dan the acid man]

But he did always say that he never wanted to play for any other clubs than Man Utd and Real Madrid so it does seem like a good challenge for him to go there, hey i would love to live in LA. He is still young and has a great opportuntity.

haha, but he's still playing for another club

it's the money, plain and simple.

i would if it was going to hinder my career, i'd rather get paid less and be playing in the leagues i want.

but, maybe he realises his times up now

i think his choice came down to:

a) play two years at tottenham, then maybe ca$h in on US market if still marketable

b) go for the ca$h now

So the choice was obvious then! It was obvious he'd be heading off to America soon, he was always talking about ending his career there. He wants to raise his profile in a new and lucrative market, ready for when he retires from football. America likes winners, so he joins a successful team and then he'll live off adverts and try and work out what else he can do with his high profile...

Plus there's his wife too, who's also trying to reinvent herself as something marketable again... I suppose going to america now gives him more time to raise his profile there...

They'll both be like Paris Hilton when he retires, no doubt do an Osbournes styledocumentary and do any old rubbish to stay famous and keep the money coming in. I imagine there'll be aftershave, maybe turn to singing! Autobiography, maybe a grill or some such, tv work...

[french_og]

Give him a break ffs....

urge to use photoshop for evil rising...

he must feel as if football hasnt got much to offer him any more,cause if he wanted the limelight an maybe a place back in the england squad he would have to come back to england for sure,he probably feels that he is coming to the end of his career cause i have a feeling the standard of foootbal isnt all that gud over there(guessing ive never actually watched any)which is actually suited to beckham cause he really isnt that good.Personally id like to see him back in premiership to see how he'd get on coming back.i also think his biatch is pulling alot of the strings :;
