Yeah I really like Beckham, or at least what I've seen of him. Good guy, takes care of his family etc. I would be interested to see how a Messi or a Ronaldo would do in the MLS actually. Would they completely destroy teams on their own etc?
Yes, If they were to go the MLS and were provided with the requisite support from their fellow team mates. They would annihilate the MLS !
Similar to the same way Neymar is killing it in the brazilian league with much weaker defenders compared to in Europe.
The difference between the standard of play in the MLS in comparison to top leagues in Europe is massive. If those teams were to play over here, they would be in the 2nd/3rd division based on what I've seen.
Also many guys like to hate on David Beckham as if he was an average footballer player or something and doesn't have the right to be up their with the greatest.
This is completely false, Becks was a dead ball specialist and scored goals with pin point accuracy. His compilation is so much better to watch than the majority of big names out there. He was a classy player in his time.
Not to mention, He's a good looking fella and down to earth guy who loved his club which elevated his fame tenfold.
