Beckham on loan - should we?

[PaulTheVillan]

Can't we sign Landon Donovan instead? He's a class player.

I read yesterday that he was having a rest this winter and not coming to Europe,and if he did it would be with Everton.
 I agree that he'd be a good signing.

[N'ZMAV]

Landon Donovan is not going anywhere this winter. He wants some time off. Don't we all, Landon, don't we all....

[Dave P]

Should we get Beckham?  Yes

Will Beckham even give us a second glance ?  No

Can't say i blame him. Where would you rather spend winter? L.A or Liverpool?

The myth just builds and builds with Beckham. Aside from the, frankly bizarre, sight of him receiving a lifetime acheivement award at the age of 35, Shaun Cuntis of The Sun believes he should've been made FA Chairman.

Now before you all laugh your bollocks off or even think it is below Sir Dave, think for a minute. As Cuntis said, he would have far more gravitas than almost anybody else, FIFA like him and when he asks for a meeting with the big wigs to promote the FA cause, he'll have no trouble getting an audience.

My only question would be:

What the fuck would he say?

He'd say "you know" an awful lot....

I like the guy though...would have him here in a shot...

[Clampy]

The only problem with a deal like this is that it benefits Beckham to keep himself fit rather than us.

The longer things go on, the more I think his thickness is a carefully-cultivated image. He ain't that daft. And that FA chairmanship isn't a bad idea.

It would only be the same as any Government Minister really.  As long as he had decent advisers around him he can do the charm offensive and presentation bit easily.

Beckham would be a great signing for us, but will never, ever join us - we're not 'cool' enough for Brand Beckham.

[Meanwood Villa]

I think he'd make a similar impact to Pires...

[Simba]

Gentleman. He has stated that he will not entertain playing in the Prem for anybody but Man U.

Don't panic. We won't have Posh selling the other half of her seat.

This is exactly what I have been saying since this 'speculation' started.  He would never, ever in a million years come to us and even discussing it on this thread is pointless to that end.  Why people think that David Beckham would come to us is beyond me.  Just for the record though, people that say they don't want him are as mad as those that think he would come.  Hogg, Salifou, Osbourne or Beckham.  Hmmm.

He's also more recently (Tuesday if I remember rightly) said he'd love to return to the Prem, but he isn't holding his breath on Utd wanting him back so he'll wait and see. I believe that was pointed out on the first page?

The way it came across was as though he would consider other clubs.

And no, that's not saying we'd definitely have a chance.
