His discipline is completely transformed now

The experience of playing for Madrid has really changed him. He works the referee so well now, no histrionics, lots of "man of the world" shrugs when he gets fouled, under-reacting to everything.

If you could get odds on him going through the WC without a yellow it would be a good bet

        Not played to his strengths, made to defend for lampard (Other Football) - pants, Jun 14, 12:30:49
        
        Is that why he had three shots into the stratosphere first half? (Other Football) - Old Git, Jun 14, 12:43:25
        
        And Beckham is better in the middle (Other Football) - HoofinHughes, Jun 14, 12:33:45
        
        Is Beckham better in the middle? Is that your viewpoint (Other Football) - pants, Jun 14, 12:37:48
        
        I don't think he is (Other Football) - Old Git, Jun 14, 12:51:21
        
        I personally think so (Other Football) - HoofinHughes, Jun 14, 12:43:44
        
        I suggested it a few weeks ago (Other Football) - pants, Jun 14, 13:09:33
        
        Honestly didnt see you suggest that (Other Football) - HoofinHughes, Jun 14, 14:32:24
        
        not really the point though, is it? (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 14, 11:58:06
        
        Surely its a minority though, I've heard hardly anything (Other Football) - pants, Jun 14, 11:58:56
        
        dunno. there were quite a few cretins calling for Lennon to replace him after one B game (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 14, 12:01:02
        
        Guy said he thought beckham was the worst player on the pitch for England (Other Football) - pants, Jun 14, 12:03:51
        
        His discipline is completely transformed now (Other Football) - Old Git, Jun 14, 12:59:37
        
        Transformed??????? (Other Football) - pants, Jun 14, 13:16:59
        
        Ooops, forgot that, but vs Paraguay he was SO self-controlled, it was really impressive (n/m) (Other Football) - Old Git, Jun 14, 13:20:30
        
        hee hee (Other Football) - pants, Jun 14, 13:21:36

        lol (Other Football) - pants, Jun 14, 13:31:59
        
        If Beckham gets a red now, you'll be MERKED big style (flicky hand thingy) (n/m) (Other Football) - Brandonio, Jun 14, 13:14:43

        Yup, I will! (n/m) (Other Football) - Old Git, Jun 14, 13:19:46
        
        Classic statement..worst player on the pitch except gaining the 3 points for us! (Other Football) - BINMEN8R, Jun 14, 12:16:58
        
        IMO we have 6/7 world class players and Beckham is one (Other Football) - BINMEN8R, Jun 14, 11:57:49
      - Let me add I also don't support the booing of Hargreaves, as I didn't (Other Football) - Steve in Holland, Jun 14, 11:49:29
- great. That'll probably help us do well in the tournament. (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 14, 11:38:09
