Everybody does not have an equivalent elsewhere. Stop trying to do this all the time.

The Shaq comparison is more accurate.

people in this thread are showing their lack of knowledge

@bear27, soccer is an 11 man sport where the body isnt as useful. Obviously Shaq was more dominant in his sport, but the fact remains.

Beckham was never the best player on any team he played on,bar those MLS teams but i am just assuming(i don't watch MLS soccer).He wasn't even the best English player when he played for them.Paul Scholes>>>>>>>>>>

It's not like he was a scrub, he came pretty close a few times to winning a few major awards, runner up a couple times

He's probably like Nash in the sense that he's not as good as his resume but still a good to borderline great

The Shaq comparison makes sense because of the wack ass movies involving their name :skip:

BEcks was nowhere near as talented with a football(soccer) as these players were with a Basketball.

Exactly.

He had a fantastic wand of a right peg and the stamina of a marathon runner. But his greatest strength was his mentality and because of that it made a some what limited player into a global ICON. Becks transcends his sport, really how many NBA players can you say the same about without naming the GAWD type players

Vince Carter? Transcended the sport because of his dunks, was a good player but not great IMO.
