Beckham in the States

This issue has way too much hype.

The former English Captain wasn't as good of a player that the crowd thought he was. He was okay, above average with a good right foot, but that's all to it.



Fair enough, he scored memorable important goals, won important trophies, inspired others, will one day look back at his wonderful career and wish he could do it all over again.

But it sickens me to hear people that relate him as the best footballer in the world. Ladies and gents, One day I'l make a list of top footballers of the decade, maybe the century if i've found enough clips to judge, but Becky boy is not and will never be in that league.

He lives a live where people admire him all over, married to a spice girl, played in the biggest clubs but he's far from the greatest.

Since his move to the states, he just turned from footballer to popstar. Earning so much more than his teammates, haven't played a competitive game, I never heard of so much hype building up to a simple friendly against Chelsea earlier on.

Football is not even a big sport in the states, when was there so much hype when a 30 year old English sportsman came to join the NBA, NFL, MLB or whatever. Since when?

Okay, he will get better soon and will get some games, probably a lot. Moving from the La liga to the MLS, it is safe to assume Becky boy will get complacent, underestimate the league and find himself in a rough spot. A hard start.

Brazilian Legend Pele got some advise for him here

I don't know when he will start playing, but I hope he plays more football than appearing in Movies and commercials. Lets hope he actually brings the American soccer game to another level. As in really make it more popular.
