im a huge man utd fan wondering why did the board agree 2 sell our most valuable player??
i think it's distgusting the way Becks has been treated by United. he has been one of our most consistent players. i have a season ticket in the Stretford End, and every game i see Beckham giving it 110%, which u don't always see on the TV.
I hope he does'nt leave, but no-one could blame him if he did the way he has been treated.
if he does go,i hope it isn't to real madrid coz they reckon they can get any player in the world by clicking their fingers (just look at Zidane & Ronaldo-they said they weren't interested in them,yet where are these 2 playing??)
DON'T GO BECKHAM!
what do u guys think?will he go?will he stay?

just face it man, he gone.
and if he does go, which he probably will i think he would have made a bad choice. real madrid have too many individual players and they dont play as a team as much a manu, manu are probably more likely to win the champions league next year than them. |

I was reading something Jaap stam wrote, he said something like "if you aren't in Sir Alex's plans, than you are as good as gone" he also adivised Beckham to leave or rot in the reserves.
I'm an Arsenal fan, but personally I dont see why Sir Alex and Man U would want not only one of their best players if not the best to leave if he is making them sooooooooooo much money ! doesn't make any sense what so ever. |

At the end of the day a football club is a business, especially when u r run by a plc. Selling beckham now is in the best interests of the plc, they want to make £30M from him instead of nothing when his contract runs out in 2 years. The longer they leave it the more his price will drop, as the market deflates and he gets closer to being a free agent.
On the playing side they are stupid for letting him go, which is made even worse by letting him join one of their biggest european rivals. Madrid are being clever in offerring a bit of money and players they dont want as it won't allow Man U 2 go and buy whoever they want.
As for Beckham, i think goin abroad will make him a better player which will benefit England. |

| I agree with all your points Rubik, except the last one I'm a little unsure of. The pace of Serie A and La Liga just doesn't match up to the Premier League, Beckham will have to adjust to the slower continental style and adjust his game accordingly. The attacking English game is well suited to people like Beckham who can slot in beautiful crosses to capable strikers, but in Europe a lot of sides play a more defensive game which might not suit him. Only time will tell I guess... |

This is exactly how he will become a better player! He will learn how 2 play a different style, a more tactical one perhaps. When he comes to play for England he will be in a better position to adapt his game if necessary.
One of the biggest problems for the English team recently has been the lack of players going abroad. They sometimes lack this ability. U could see this during the game against Slovakia when Hargreaves came on. Instead of playing the long diagonal ball ball as favoured by Gerrard, he played simple intellegent passes and built the play up. |

Yeah I think it might help his England career, but his club career might not be so prolific.
I agree with you though English clubs often struggle in Europe because these continental sides just stop the game dead. Probing runs and ruthless attacking often doesn't work against these defensive sides :( We need to be more tactical and open up their defence. Against Slovakia as soon as Vassell came on he was more creative than Rooney and opened up their defence, and once we had unlocked their defence we took them apart. |

He's gone (almost). Statement from manutd.com
| quote: | Manchester United today reached agreement for the transfer of David Beckham to Real Madrid for a fee of €35m (approximately £25m).
The deal is expected to be completed in July, conditional upon approval by the boards of Manchester United and Real Madrid, and on the provision of satisfactory payment guarantees.
David Beckham has agreed personal terms with Real Madrid and expects to sign his new contract with the club on completion.
Sir Alex Ferguson said: "I’ve known David since he was 11 years of age, and it’s been a pleasure to see him grow and develop into the player he has become. David has been an integral part of all the successes that Manchester United have achieved in the last decade. I would like to wish him and his family every success in the future, and thank him for his service to the club."
Peter Kenyon, chief executive of Manchester United, said: "While we are sad to see David go after so many great years at Old Trafford, we believe this is a good deal for the club, and we now look forward to building on the success of last season’s championship title. We wish David all the best in his new career in Spain and thank him for his fantastic contribution to the team’s achievements in the last decade. We have worked closely with David’s advisors throughout the past few weeks and thank them for their co-operation."
Under the terms of the agreement, €7.5m of the total fee will be paid upon completion of the sale, and €17.5m over the following four years in equal instalments. The remaining €10m is conditional upon Real Madrid's performances in the UEFA Champions League. Under the deal, €1.25m is payable in each of the next four seasons conditional on Real Madrid qualifying for the Champions League, and a further €1.25m is payable each season conditional on Real Madrid reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League over the same period. All the deferred payments will be backed by acceptable guarantees. |
