Beckham and the Powerswerve DB to stay in Milan?


It looks like David Beckham will be staying in Milan after he admitted that he wanted to stay in the San Siro and battle for his place in the England side. After a very difficult time in Los Angeles with the LA Galaxy, Beckham has had a fantastic time in Milan, becoming an extremely important piece of the Milan team. Milan and Beckhams lawyers have been fighting for a full time transfer to Milan, but LA Galaxy held out, looking for a transfer fee of upto $16million. A deadline was set for last Freday night, but AC Milan fell well short with an offer somewhere around $6million. Rumor has it that Galaxy shareholders are holding out to gain back money they invested in bringing Beckham to LA.
My opinion: Beckham is staying at AC. He currently has too much going for him, playing at a great level and looking good for his place in the English side. Beckham has another World Cup in him, and who would not want to play in a World Cup. Add to this the fact that Victoria is now in the Fashion capital of the world, and Beckham will not be back in LA come April!

Beckham's Debut and Adidas Powerswerve DB

David Beckham made his debut for AC Milan in Dubai tonight. Milan took on German side Hamburg in a friendly showcase game. Beckham played the first 45 minutes wearing his new Adidas Powerswerve DB cleats. The game went to penalties after the 90 minutes finished 1-1, and AC Milan won on Mathieu Flamini's deciding spot kick. No doubt, eyes will be fully focused on this weekends Serie A game, as Beckham is likely to line up with Kaka, Ronaldhino and Pato. Not a bad line up of stars!

The new Adidas Powerswerve DB have not yet been released. Adidas has upped its position in the battle with Nike for top spot of the Soccer Cleat industry. The DB's have been created with a combination of Powerswerve and ClimaCool technology. You get all the benifits of the normal Powerswerve with an extra bonus! The ClimaCool part comes in as small air pockets, cut out to create extra circulation in the cleat. Adidas tested the movement of air around a runner’s shoe and positioned ventilation ducts in locations scientifically proven to maximize air velocity to the foot Add to this a fully ventilated mesh upper and breathable sock liner, you are ensured of maximum airflow throughout the cleat. Check out the pic of Beckham's Powerswerve DB heel. The 'DB' stands for his name, the 'V' for his wife Victoria. On the right boot Beck's has the Italian flag, while on the left boot he has the English flag. Release date is set for mid-March. Check back for more information on availability.
