Emma Bee My view is that once Shearer left international football they needed an icon. David Beckham had a marketable image and he was chosen to be the front for English football. There were embarrassing moments such as when he was sent off for England, when he admitted to fouling a player intentionally while England captain so that he could serve a ban while injured. He claimed it was a clever move but was forced into an apology by public and media reaction. The there was the time he sent his penalty sky high into orbit and tried to blame the pitch for it despite all those who took a penalty from the same spot after him managed to hit the target. I do quite like him as a person but I think he is intentionally over rated as a player. In Blair's Britain where image meant more than substance he fitted very well, but his days at the top are over. To send him to the world cup would be another embarrassment.

Sorry David. Just retire gracefully.
robbiex I don't think he's that much of a gent, I seem to remember he cheated on his wife a few years ago, with a certain Rebecca Loos. Also he's shown absolutely no loyalty to L.A Galaxy after they've paid him millions of pounds, he swans off to Milan when he sniffs the chance of an England recall. Beckham just cares for Beckham ltd.

All you gay guys will probably disagree, because he's good looking, but you should see beyond that.

Oh come on. Completely disagree. He has handled his career and his life far better than Best did for example.His influence on the pitch is something you cannot replace. And as tonight has thus far showed ...he still has the talent and the skill to score goals.

Ac Milan 1 Man Utd 0.

I rest my case.



Of course you disagree. Not sure about your case resting though. He didn't score tonight and his team didn't win.

The Fat Controller Thanks JK. The man is a legend. Tonight he has given his all (i've been listening to commentary) I for one could never have coped with the publicity this man has received over the last 14 years...I'd have done myself in or become a hopeless drunk or both. One can only imagine the intensity of being a global phenomenon...look at Jacko.

Becks remains an upstanding gent.

I salute him. He's quite incredible.
