Will David Beckham make a difference for the MLS?

[rachy rach]

yeah i still think hes a good player

[Christian el Hombre]

(spit) i reckon he will.

[Undertaker-RIP- : PAC]

probably draw more fans

[moltopia]

He will if he manages to play all of the games. Teams have sold out games on the premise he will play. Now people are wondering if he will be tied up playing with the England squad.

In the short term, yes, there will be an inevitable rise in attendances and money going into the game.































However, in the long term it doesn't look hopeful. Soccer is a long way from breaking into the stranglehold of the four major american sports.































Pele couldn't manage it, so if it's about playing ability, neither will Beckham!

[Carlos D]

That is the hope but I doubt it. Americans are too stupid to understand soccer. They only love violence in sports and soccer is too beautiful and too artistic for most American to understand. They just watch and wonder why nobody is killing the other players.

[Milton B]

i dont think so. this is because the mls has a low quality soccer, so it might result in him becoming a worse player. One player doesnt make a difference, but he will be helpful to LA Galaxy.

[maroz]

no he wont

no matter what anyone says he is still top quality, look at how poor england have been without him, comes back and we are a different team. shouldnt worry about him going to play for england, he has played every opportunity- and been top class with man u and real. the fact he is still in the england set up is beneficial to him, galaxy and mls.
