Positionally and technically he's probably still world class. Just his fitness that may be an issue. Wouldn't be able to play every game. This is a ridiculous thread you honestly think the superstar that is David Beckham would join us??? not a chance Why not? Surely we have as good a chance as anyone.

alpine_saint Posted 20 November, 2012 Share Posted 20 November, 2012 Up and down the country, perhaps even the around world, football fans of every club are asking "Beckham - would you take him?". This is why I despise him and his miserable stick-insect wife so much. He either knows EXACTLY what he is doing next already - which club, full-time modelling, who knows (and remember, hes got kids who need f**king schooling now), or he is deliberately seeking attention - who is going to bend over the most for him. Otherwise, why wasnt his next move info included with the news he was leaving LA Galaxy ? They are clearly bored or missing the limelight - not enough paparazzis waiting for their miserable viasges in airport lounges any more.

doddisalegend Posted 20 November, 2012 Share Posted 20 November, 2012 If he were to come here (which I very very much doubt) could he play a "Paul Scholes" like role for us. Just come on and ping balls onto Lambert's head. He is getting on a bit now no idea if he is fit enough for the PL. Some of his last performances for England it looked like his legs had gone.

JackanorySFC Posted 20 November, 2012 Share Posted 20 November, 2012 He never had pace though did he. Or a trick, the ability to tackle, head a ball or avoid the temptation to make 50 yard "hollywood" passes every 2 minutes... A very good player in his day, excellent crossing ability and above average from free kicks (although would you want him to take the ball from Lambert at 25 yards out). Never a great, and threw his career away when he decided to jib off to America to play part time non league stuff. Why anyone would want brand Becks when it would invariably mean dropping one of Cork, Schneiderlin or Ramirez (no way he can play on the wing in the Prem, he will insist on some pathertic "quarterback" role being invented for him) is beyond me. Only QPR or West Ham would go near him in the Prem (and for all the wrong reasons). I would wager he will end up in Aus' or at PSG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingwing Posted 20 November, 2012 Share Posted 20 November, 2012 He never had pace though did he. Well he was always reasonably mobile... By the sounds of the guys at LA Galaxy he's even slower now but still good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintWill71 Posted 20 November, 2012 Share Posted 20 November, 2012 All hypothetical of course but, The negatives would outweigh the positives, A big wage and lets face it, now a pretty average player for the level we are competing in. Seeing him run out at SMS would be nice but after 15 minutes the novelty would wear off I'd imagine, Might fill our corporate seats and boxes though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 20 November, 2012 Share Posted 20 November, 2012 Given the chance....would you take him ? Not unless they want to genuinely break their shirt sales record, no. Plays at walking pace and we already have a couple of flawed set-piece deliverers. Also, Lambert, Ramirez and Shaw have already bagsied the numbers he prefers. I couldn't see him agreeing to 43... maybe 77 ? He's not coming anyway, unless he can play centre-back ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkou Posted 20 November, 2012 Share Posted 20 November, 2012 Yes, without doubt. I guess most on here have not seen much of him in recent years but I have seen him play quite a few times in the MLS (which is not as bad as you may think) and he is still quality. The experience would be invaluable this season and the young players would benefit greatly. Shame it's all hypothetical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Window Cleaner Posted 20 November, 2012 Share Posted 20 November, 2012 anyone who says they wouldnt want him in the team, is telling porkies not at all, I wouldn't want him. Don't think he's had many offers from English clubs because most of them know he's finished. Still Paris Bling FC will give him a couple of million because that's what they're about. Never in the history of football has so much money been spent on so much rubbish. Perhaps Beckham fancies the manager's job when they give Ancelotti the heave-ho.
