Serie A - Becks still committed to Galaxy

Eurosport - Sun, 26 Oct 13:25:00 2008

David Beckham has reiterated his commitment to the Los Angeles Galaxy as he nears a loan move to Milan.

FOOTBALL 2008 MLS Los Angeles Galaxy David Beckham - 0

The veteran midfielder yesterday spoke of his delight at the prospect of linking up with the Italian club for a two-month spell beginning in January.

The loan is seen as an attempt by the 33-year-old to secure his international future, but it has also raised questions about his commitment to MLS side the Galaxy.

However, when asked whether Sunday's match against FC Dallas would be his last for the Californians, Beckham told the Los Angeles Times: "No, it won't be.

"I've made that clear.

I've said that my commitment is still to the Galaxy, and that has not changed."

  1. I belief Beckham has made his mark for England and­ should have waited till the end of his contract with LA­ Galaxy and bow out of football with great honour. This­ fortune seeking and pathological greed to prevent­ younger talents to earn England shirt is unbecoming of­ some international players. My advice to him is to shed­ his planned move to Milan and retire from the football­ arena after his fortune seeking Holywood display in Los­ Angeles.

  2. David Beckham is just a money grabbing man and all­ because of his wife. that is the only reason he went to­ the united states. BBeckham dose what she says.

  3. i dont see why mongers keep on saying Lord Beck is­ wrong in making a two month loan to Milan. I think is­ just to get him fit for his international career for­ England which we all must respect and ador @#$%

  4. who really gives a c r ap where he is , money took him­ to a @#$% league in america when he could of played in­ england or italy , he just seeks fame and fortune with­ his skinny and ugly wife as she pushes him for her­ fame , he was a good player for the sport , so why cant­ he play for a team that needs money to help them for a­ few months , oops that is not good style for her ­ ,everything he does has a camera around , good he has­ lots of money and fame , so help a small club and give­ someone in the lower leagues a chance to to see the old­ fellow and make all clubs get a bit of money

  7. For a player to be too old at 33 is a joke, look at AC­ milan Paolo Maldini, Giuseppe Favalli and Filippo­ Inzaghi.

  8. For a player to be too old at 33 is a joke. loads of­ players have played well past this at top level, look­ at Sherringham and beardsley to name just 2.

  9. This move has nothing to do with football, or his­ dedication to England, or breaking of records. it is­ pure greed, not giving kids any chance of playing for­ their national team. let him stay in the states, they­ need him much more than England does.

  10. Im a big fan of Becks and i still think he has alot to­ offer the England squad.There are not many players that­ show the passion that he does when whereing an England­ shirt. I also think that he can offer a lot to alost­ any club out there yes he might not be as quick as he­ used to be but that doesnt matteras he can cross the­ ball and put it where ever he wants to on the pitch.

  11. Looking forward to seeing David back on european­ grounds, but would have preferred if he came to Rangers­ on loan!!

  12. @1. that guy still delivers the best crosses in the­ world. he still picks out a team mate from 40 yards.­ lay off him . if am the coach he start every game. well­ mybe not every game. but he's ok.

  13. I admire Becks dedication in trying to secure the­ record number of England caps from Bobby Moore but I­ reallly do not believe he is helping the England cause­ of winning the World Cup in 2010, which will be won by­ Germany anyway.

    Becks sould take a deep look inside­ and hand over to a younger team mate, he has done­ really well but does he really want to be remembered as­ an eternal Recaro warmer ?
