Leaving Real life for La-La-Land: A new world for Posh and Becks
The Independent – Independent – Jan 12, 2007
Fans in England or Spain would be hard-pressed to name any of the 11 players who don the team’s gold and green shirts and troop out on to their shared ground, the Home Depot Centre, at California State University. Last season, the team notched up their worst season in history, with LA Galaxy finishing a disappointing fifth in the Western Conference. The team’s current star player, before the arrival of Beckham of course, is captain Landon Donovan, right, top scorer for the past two years and once hailed as the hottest home-grown talent in US Major League Soccer. His star has waned somewhat after failing to score in 17 outings with the national side, including poor performances at last summer’s World Cup. He is married to actress Bianca Kajlich, who has appeared in films including the critically-panned Halloween: Resurrection. Donovan succeeded Pasadena’s Peter Vagenas as the club’s captain. The midfielder and former Olympian is much admired by fans for his telling passes – and could be threatened by Beckham’s arrival.

” >Anschutz Entertainment Group, the owner of LA Galaxy. After playing at the club’s Home Depot Center against the MLS All Stars last year, Chelsea will take part in a four-team tournament also involving the Galaxy in July. To add further spice to the meeting, it is understood that Peter Kenyon, the Chelsea chief executive, proposed a move for Beckham last year but was overruled by Jose Mourinho, the manager. The MLS hopes that other big names will follow Beckham to America, such as Ronaldo, who is also surplus to requirements at Real and is wanted by New York Red Bulls… Fans in England or Spain would be hard pressed to name any of the 11 players who troop out on to the side’s shared ground, the Home Depot Centre, at California State University.

Regrets Beckham wants to see out the last five months of his contract with Real and win a medal after three barren seasons, although it remains to be seen whether Fabio Capello, the coach, will pick him. Beckham talked of having no regrets about his move to Spain and described playing with Zinedine Zidane as “the greatest honour of my career”.
Barwick should stand up to Premier League

Others followed suit. Arsene Wenger’s first team contains, at best, a couple of Englishmen, but emerging from the shadows soon will be the six or seven English players being groomed in Liam Brady’s Arsenal academy and honing their skill under Steve Bould’s tutorage. Wenger always believed it would take a decade to develop home-grown talent. So learning from peers is the way forward for England’s best. They also need to care passionately, to understand how lucky they are, to appreciate the responsibilities to the fans who helped make them multi-millionaires. Too much money has played a part in England’s demise. If Brian Barwick, the FA’s chief executive, cares as passionately, now is the time for him and the FA to show it with enlightened leadership, decisive action and courage.
