I doubt Beckham loses any sleep over whether LAG win, lose or draw. Now back in the world of real football - David James, that is someone we should be laughing at, along with his entire Portsmouth team.

If Beckham is a loser what does that make the band of internet geeks, anoraks and social pygmies aka NSC ?.

Good grief. Why do people want to laugh at the greatest footballer this country has produced in many many years. Bizarre.

What?

He's about the 8th best midfielder in the current SQUAD?!

Even taking that on board which is arguable, he is still the greatest footballer this country has produced in the last 15 years, which was my original point. I'm not saying he is the best player in the current squad.

Define greatest. I think he is a nice enough bloke. He has gone missing in EVERY SINGLE TOURNAMENT HE HAS PLAYED IN. How does that make him great?

That's ridiculous. Who? Only Lampard and Gerrard are better midfielders than Beckham in the England squad.

Well obviously you think Don Fabio is ridiculous as well, as he plays players such as Milner, Walcott, Barry, Carrick, Joe Cole and more ahead of him...

Yeah, he really does go missing in every single tournament he has played in. Scoring and setting up crucial goals and being one of the best players in the world at set pieces. Carrying the England team singlehandely in 2006 when the rest of the team were mediocre at best...who needs him? He probably wouldn't even make the Brighton squad if we tried to sign him.

Michael Carrick better than David Beckham? I give up.

Lucky Capello doesn't listen to you then.

Give me an example of a SINGLE great performance from David Beckham in a major tournament. If he's the "greatest player" we have produced in a long time, this will be very, very easy for you.
