David Beckham USA

David Beckham has shockingly revealed that he enjoys watching rugby more than football. The former England star is regarded as one of the icons of the game. Beckham is known for his freekick taking abilities, while he has achieved so much in the sport while playing for top teams like Manchester United and Real Madrid. Beckham is one of the few players to have played in three major leagues with three top teams – Madrid, United, and AC Milan. His sons, though, have been showing different interests of late. They have also started supporting the likes of Arsenal whereas Beckham is known to be a huge fan of United.

David Beckham and Sir Alex Ferguson widely fell out with each other almost a decade ago. The former England international, though, has praised his manager ahead of a fundraising game at Old Trafford.

Beckham and Ferguson reportedly came to blows before the former joined Real Madrid for £ 25 million. Despite being one of the best players in the history of the club, Ferguson did not think twice about selling him to one of the main European rivals. Beckham has pushed aside all the hard feelings that he may have about the Scot, who recently retired from management.

It is easy to forget that for the best part of his career, David Beckham did not don the number seven jersey.
It was not his to start with at Manchester United, with the young floppy-haired winger graduating out the Old Trafford academy system working his way steadily down the order from 28, to 24 and then to number 10.

Teddy Sheringham has now revealed that the tale of one of English football’s most iconic figures could have been markedly different had he not joined the Red Devils in the summer of 1997, with his standing as an elder statesman and out-and-out frontman allowing him to cherry pick his squad number of choice. Having opted for 10, Beckham was offered the opportunity to take seven.

David Beckham has revealed that his eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, will not be pursuing a career in football.

Instead, he will focus on his other interests. Brooklyn was seen as the next David Beckham and it appears to have been the primary cause behind the youngster opting out of football as a career. Beckham has a huge reputation in the game and the former Manchester United superstar reveals that Brooklyn was not sure about having to live up with the comparisons throughout his career. If his career did not turn out as expected, he would have faced numerous criticisms about failure to reach his dad’s level.

Former England international David Beckham is one of those several calling for a change at FIFA.

The world football governing body has been hit by a number of corruption scandals in recent years. The most high-profile of them has happened just days before Sepp Blatter was re-elected for the post once again. The Swiss has held this position since 1998. He promised during the previous elections that it would be his last term as the FIFA president, but it has not been the case. He managed to beat his only opponent narrowly to secure another term.

David Beckham has branded former Manchester United captain Roy Keane as the best midfielder he has ever played with.

This is an extraordinary accolade for Keane, whose character has been questioned on numerous occasions.Keane was a central figure in the United team that won the treble in 1999. Yet, he was forced to leave the club in acrimonious circumstances after falling out with manager Sir Alex Ferguson. His exit was in many ways similar to the departure of Beckham a few years ago. Beckham has played with top midfielders like Zinedine Zidane and Ronaldinho during his time at Real Madrid and AC Milan respectively.

David Beckham knows a thing or two about what it takes and how the international scene in football works as the former player captained England for 6 years where he went off to make over 50 appearances as the captain of the national side.

The former Manchester United player has given his thoughts about Harry Kane.

Harry Kane is attracting the attention of everywhere all over the globe as the 21 year old forward is the top goal-scorer of Tottenham Hotspur after having scored 16 goals in 24 league appearances.

It’s been over a year since David Beckham retired from playing football at a competitive and professional stage and since retiring, the Englishman has gone out to buy a MLS expansion team for $25 million which is expected to begin playing in 2016 or 2017 depending on how negotiations go on concerning if a stadium can be appropriately built in time and this seems to be the most problematic obstacle for Beckham for the moment.

The former captain of England has also gone out to explore the Amazon rainforest in Brazil for his BBC documentary which is called: ‘’Into the Unknown’’

Everton midfielder Ross Barkley has stated that he has grown up looking and being inspired by David Beckham playing for England national team.

The former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder is regarded as one of the finest players to have played for the England national team in the last few decades. The 38-year-old is also the record holder for the most number of appearances made for the English team. At the other end of the spectrum is Barkley, who is just starting out his international career. The 20-year-old made his debut for the England national team in 2013. He has so far featured in 10 matches with no goals scored.

With the arrival of Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas to Stamford Bridge, Chelsea was and still is one of the favorites on winning the Premier League this new season. Arsenal could also be considered as one of the title contenders after they signed Danny Welbeck, Calum Chambers and Alexis Sanchez.

Just by signing a high profile and recognized player almost any club can dramatically improve their hopes of winning a title and even before the Premier League season initiated, there were a number of clubs that were favorites on winning it. Manchester City did not go through a very active summer transfer window but they are still one of the favorite clubs on lifting the Premier League title once more.
