However, speculation is growing that he may stay in Italy beyond his loan term.</p><p>The reason why Beckham may stay at AC Milan is most probably because he is again playing with players of a high quality and enjoying himself. He&#39;s not the sort of player that can lead a team single handedly but he is the type of player that can allow great players around him to find space, score goals and make runs knowing that a quality ball will reach them.</p><p>Let&#39;s hope that L.A Galaxy don&#39;t stand in the way of allowing Beckham to play on a decent stage for the next few years of his career.</p><p>BBC New Article -&nbsp;<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/7864140.stm">Beckham Stars in AC Milan Vicory</a></p><p><a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/7864140.stm"></a>England Goals -&nbsp;<a href="http://www.englandgoals.com/?goal_id=119">Beckham&#39;s first goal for AC Milan</a> </p><p>England Goals -&nbsp;<a href="http://www.englandgoals.com/?goal_id=120">Beckham&#39;s freekick against Genoa</a> &nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p> Sun, 01 Feb 2009 22:51:50 22FebCET http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/#item109 Beckham to join AC Milan on loan http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/beckham-to-join-ac-milan-on-loan.html <p>The MLS season finishes at the end of the week and Beckham needs to be playing competitive football to be considered by Fabio Capello so is going to join AC Milan on loan.</p><p>It's great news to see that Beckham will be playing in a truely competitive league.

Well done Becks!</p><p>It is unlikely that Beckham will retain the captaincy for the world cup qualifiers but it shows that Beckham is truely in Capello&#39;s plans.</p><p>Some have said that Beckham&#39;s appointment as captain is &quot;political&quot; to influence the 2018 world cup decision but Capello is not the sort of person who would be pressured into making a decision that he does not believe in.</p><p>Thanks to Dan for sending in an e-mail when this news was released.&nbsp;</p> Sat, 31 May 2008 21:11:06 21MayCEST http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/#item106 Will Beckham reach 101 caps? http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/will-beckham-reach-101-caps.html Will <span class="hm">Beckham</span> reach 101 caps?<br /><br />Yes. And I&#39;ll tell you why. At the moment we still don&#39;t have anybody who can replace him in the squad.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Bentley</span> is currently the name that everybody is mentioning as <span class="hm">Beckham&#39;s</span> replacement. I certainly think that he is the favourite as he is a good crosser of the ball, good at <span class="hm">freekicks</span>, scores goals and has a passion for the game. Bentley&#39;s main drawbacks are experience and pace. He can gain experience but can&#39;t get any quicker. <span style="font-weight: bold">Wright-Phillips</span> has bags of pace, can beat a man but his shooting and crossing are very inconsistent. <span style="font-weight: bold">Lennon </span>has electric pace and is when he is on form is probably the best of the bunch at beating players but suffers similar problems to Wright-Phillips.<br /> <br /> <span class="hm">Beckham</span> still provides squad options that cannot be offered by any other individual and until then <span class="hm">Capello</span> will continue to pick him.<br /> <br /> <span class="hm">Beckham&#39;s</span> inclusion tends to receive only the extremes of responses. Either &quot;Yes, he&#39;s Captain marvellous&quot; or &quot;No, I&#39;m fed up with him, we should move on&quot;. I don&#39;t understand why people tend to only ever have a view at one of these extremes. However I&#39;ve noticed that over the past few months some <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/internationals/7315991.stm">common sense opinions</a> are being aired regarding <span class="hm">Beckham&#39;s</span> England involvement.<br /> <br /> I for one, hope that <span class="hm">Beckham</span> maintains his fitness for the LA Galaxy and that his form, fitness and ability continue to justify a squad inclusion.

The game against Croatia was a rollercoaster and Beckham did his bit by setting up a goal but it was truely disappointing. Maclaren paid the price for a poor campaign which he must take the blame for due to some very questionable and wrong decisions.</p><p>We&#39;ve decided to break our silence after finding a fantastic piece of gossip.</p><p>The <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/gossip_and_transfers/7143715.stm">BBC Gossip page today reports that Capello (the most likely new England manager) may make Beckham captain for his 100th cap</a>.&nbsp;</p><p>It would be a fantastic way to honour one of our most consistent and dedicated players.&nbsp; We hope this is fact and not just gossip!</p> Fri, 14 Dec 2007 14:20:43 14DecCET http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/#item98 Beckham to start on bench against Croatia http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/beckham-to-start-on-bench-against-croatia.html <p>The <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/internationals/7103110.stm">BBC is reporting that Beckham is to start on the bench</a> against Croatia. This is probably a good move by Maclaren as Beckham is short of match practice and may have more of an impact coming on after 60 minutes.</p><p>Becks has only played 60 minutes for England and been involved in two friendly games for L.A Galaxy since returning from injury so it look like Maclaren has taken the sensible option.</p><p>Maclaren has also dropped Robinson who has been out of form for months now. It appears that the England coach is making the kind of decisions that he should have been making from the start.</p><p> The <a href="../">Bring Back Beckham campaign</a> was started because Beckham was dropped when he did not deserve to be and was not picked when he was in great form for Real Madrid. If Beckham is not playing well and is out of form then we believe that he should not be picked. At the moment he is lacking match practice so the correct decision is to keep his quality on the bench and use him as an impact substitute.</p><p>C'mon England! </p> Wed, 21 Nov 2007 14:20:09 14NovCET http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/#item97 Israel give England and Beckham hope http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/israel-give-england-and-beckham-hope.html <p>Israel have done England and Backham a massive favour by <a href="http://www.englandgoals.com/?goal_id=109">beating Russia 2 -1</a> and leaving England requiring a draw against Croatia on Wednesday to qualify for Euro 2008.</p><p><a href="http://www.englandgoals.com/?goal_id=108">England beat Austria by a single goal</a> on Friday night with Beckham setting up the goal with a trademark corner. However, the performance was not fantastic and England only created a few chances throughout the game. In addition we will be without Michael Owen against Croatia after he limped out of the game with a torn thigh mussle.</p><p>Beckham played 60 minutes in the game and was the main threat to Austria with some great crosses and a few corners including the one that setup Peter Crouch for the England goal. Beckham does look a little off the pace but has lost none of his quality. Hopefully the ex-England captain will have a bit more energy against Croatia and continue to cause the opposition trouble with his undoubted vision and accuracy.&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks again Israel and c&#39;mon England!&nbsp;</p> Sun, 18 Nov 2007 15:27:56 15NovCET http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/#item96 Beckham recalled to the England squad for Euro 2008 game against Croatia http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/beckham-recalled-to-the-england-squad-for-euro-2008-game-against-croatia-.html <p>Beckham has been recalled and is expected to play in the game against Croatia.

There&#39;s no point him playing when he&#39;s injured so let him heal and then watch him perform at full fitness.</p><p>It seems that no matter what Beckham does he will always either be praised or criticised. Never anything in between. The great thing about Becks however is that he just keeps his chin high and gets on with it. We are confident that Beckham will come out of this current mini-slump with his head held high proving yet again he&#39;s a bigger man than his critics.&nbsp;</p><p>Will Beckham make the England Squad for the Germany friendly? Possibly not. He needs to get fit and start performing for L.A Galaxy. But we still believe that Beckham, when fit and performing, deserves a place in the England squad.</p> Wed, 08 Aug 2007 11:21:55 11AugCEST http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/#item89 Good Luck Becks http://www.bringbackbeckham.com/news/good-luck-becks.html Just a quick post to wish David Beckham the very best in the Real Madrid game that has just kicked off.
