On the Beckham front, all shit is going to hit the fan soon.
Since he left for Milan it was pretty obvious that he wasn't going to want to come back. It's come out today that Milan's only offer to buy him back was a paltry £3 million. Seriously? MLS set a deadline of Friday for Milan to come up with a real offer, and they didn't.
It's pretty clear that Becks wants to be in Milan, and for the sake of world football I think Beckham being in Milan permanently is what should happen.
Still, AC Milan seriously low-balled for him. Anything less than £10 million should and will get laughed off the table, considering how much the man means for MLS. At the same time, throughout his career he has always been very professional, but he's pretty much lost that with MLS.
Not blaming him for wanting to be at Milan if he is capable of playing there, but he came into MLS with huge hype and talked about how he was dedicated to the league and how he wanted to improve soccer in the country. Apparently he didnt' realize that the team he signed for was shit, and after two years of injuries and slacking around the pitch he pretty much orchestrated this move back to Milan without even consulting Galaxy until it was pretty much worked out. Then he went to Milan on the fake premise that he was a Galaxy player and would be back in preseason. All of a sudden he did well and now quotes are littered around the Internet about how happy he is at Milan and how he doesn't want to come back to MLS.
Well, sorry to say Becks, you signed a deal to play in America and apparently Milan doesn't value you as much as you'd like. See you in a couple weeks.
