Beat England

[elmcitymaven 9,712]

Didn't like the suit. Even Capello looked a bit odd in his.

I'd far rather have DB on the pitch. Gerrard and Lampard work 'ard, but Beckham is the only player we have who can drop a football at a sprinting player's feet from 60 yards. England are better with him playing.

Oh, and Boss ... I'll back you up in court that shooting him in the face was a matter of national ... ummm ... security ... safety ... importance!

DB would look hawt in a bin liner. Sorry, I'm a girl. Agree with you that he would have been better on the pitch though. Eh, typical England performance.

Thank you Col Pooky for your support in my upcoming political assassination of Rob. I'm really sad about it, because he likes drinking almost as much as me, and Mel is a really great girl that I hate leaving as a widow.

Becks looks hot in his suit....it's those sleeves that make him look like a chav.

And the other humungous tats. Robin, they just have a serious case of the JELLUS.

is it just me or does Fabio Capello look like Lou Reed?

[elmcitymaven 9,712]

Yeah, but with a weird dash of Alan Davies and "Craig David" too

LOL Every time I see that Craig David face I think of that "Proper Crimbo" song.

I never did understand the Kes/Kestrel for a Knave reference, just random I guess.

Outside of set piece, DB is absolute #######. Even when he played for united he wasn't even the best midfielder. UK would have been better off trying to lure Giggs into taking English citizenship, at least then you'd have had a quality player.

Disagree completely

It would have been hard to be a better midfielder than Paul Scholes so I take that point. But one of Uniteds problems when Beckham left was they never replaced him and took a while to wait for Ronaldo to finally click. Even when United played badly, Beckham had the ability to turn a game with one pass. Scored a lot of important and good goals too. RVN's stunning season a few years back, was in many respects related to Beckham giving him the ball in a position he couldn't miss.

Although the real reason Ruud scored so many was because he thought "pass" was a four-letter word.
