Now that the AC Milan deal is official, David Beckham is free to blog about it! David writes about how excited he is to be playing in game and how it’s better for him–he finds there’s a big difference between being fit for a game and just plain being fit.

David is also looking towards next season for the Galaxy, and is eager to improve upon his previous two seasons with the club. Hopefully there is a play-off berth in their future!

After weeks of talks, David Beckham is officially headed to AC Milan in the MLS off-season. According to his official website, David will start playing for the club in January 2009 and will return to the Galaxy once the MLS 2009 season begins.

I think this is an exciting and positive move for all involved. It will keep David focused and in shape and will give AC Milan a boost in media attention and let them have a chance to play with one of the world’s greatest players. The Galaxy were concerned about fatigue for David, and while that’s valid, I feel David has been playing long enough to know what his body can handle.

David Beckham updated his blog a few days ago. He wrote about the Galaxy’s MLS season coming to an end. He’s disappointed about how this season ended, but he’s proud of his team and is already looking forward to next year.

He also wrote about what’s going on with AC Milan. The talks are yet to be finalized, but David wants to go. He thinks it’ll be good for him, and therefore, good for all the teams he plays on. He wants to assure fans that despite this talks, he remains 100% committed to the Galaxy and has every intention of returning next year.

David Beckham and the Los Angeles Galaxy played their final game of the season yesterday, playing Dallas to a 2-2 draw. Eddie Buddle and Landon Donovan picked up the two Galaxy goals, and David helped out with an assist. It was a disappointing end to a lackluster season for the Galaxy. Let’s hope they work hard during the off-season and come back next year better than ever.

Soccer isn’t over for for David though. He’s soon going to be headed to AC Milan to play during the off-season. How do you feel about David headed to Milan? ill it make him a better player for the Galaxy? Or is it unfair, and opens up questions about his loyalty to MLS and the Galaxy?

David Beckham is currently on the road, playing for the English national team, but he still had time to update his blog. Over the weekend, he only saw a few minutes of play, but was pleased that England defeated Kazakhstan. Despite his lack of playing time, David says he was pleased to participate and “come on the field to create chances.”

While David was away, the Los Angeles Galaxy defeated the Colorado Rapids 3-2. David was disappointed to not be there, but was glad to see the team win. The Galaxy needs to win all three of their final games if they hope to make the play-offs. One down, two to go!

David Beckham received a yellow card during the Los Angeles Galaxy’s match against the Columbus Crew on Saturday. Because of this violation, David will miss the October 1 match against the Houston Dynamo.

The match is a pivotal one for the Galaxy. They are currently in the bottom of the standings with only three games left. If they hope to score a play-off berth, they need to win all of these games.

David is also missing this week’s match against the Colorado Rapids because he was called up to play for the English squad.

Hopefully the team will be able to perform without David on the field.

The Los Angeles Galaxy snapped their 12-game winless streak with an exciting 5-2 victory over the DC United last night. Landon Donovan lead the Galaxy with a hat trick and Peter Vagenas and Alan Gordon chipped in with a goal each.

David Beckham contributed to the win too, assisting on one of Landon’s goals.

After the game, David praised Landon for his strong performance in a win that the Galaxy badly needed.

“I thought Landon was exceptional. But I’ve seen that a few times from Landon,” David told reporters after the game. “When he plays like that, no one can stop him. He’s a goal scorer. He’s a great finisher of the ball and we needed that.”

Congratulations to the Galaxy. This was exactly what they needed to lift their spirits as they prep for a fight to make the play-offs!

David Beckham updated his blog today. He’s happy that the Galaxy retained the SuperClasico title, and looking forward to working with newly named coach Bruce Arena. He’s also looking forward to participating in the closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics.

After last week’s firing of Alexi Lalas and resignation of Ruud Gullit, the Los Angeles Galaxy announced they have filled both of these positions.

Bruce Arena, one of the winningest coaches in US soccer history, will take on the dual role of head coach and GM of the fledging Galaxy team. David Beckham and his teammates started the year off strong, but have struggled recently. Arena has won 2 MLS titles with DC United and is expected to turn the Galaxy into one of MLS’s premiere teams.

Playing for the first time under the direction of Cobi Jones, David Beckham and the Los Angeles Galaxy played Chivas to a 2-2 draw, securing the return of the SuperClasico trophy. Chris Klein scored, off an assist from David, and Landon Donovon supplied the second goal.

David received a caution for a reckless foul during the game. The Galaxy and Chivas have a history of playing rough against each other–I wonder where this rivalry spawned from.

Despite securing the trophy for the second year in a row, the team wasn’t happy with their performance.

“We went out in the first half pumped up because we were ready for this game. We led at halftime 1-0,” David told the reporters after the game. “It should have been 2- or 3-0, but it wasn’t meant to be.”
