Becks is in it for the moolah, pay no mind to this "im doing it for the kids" line.

he was a precocious teen talent, scoring a goal from inside his own half drew attention to him. Yeah, so he's got a decent right foot, but is only good for free kicks and whipping crosses/corners in. "fighting spirit" Vronsky? I beg to differ. Yes he could run and run, monitors often picked him up doing more than seven miles a game (90mins), but he is past it.
He also was the face of a lot of products over here in europeland, most notably Gilette razors, Pepsi and sports wear. He was perceived to be the goldenboy of english soccer, and of course when he married that stick from the Spice Girls, it was every campaign managers dream. Things turned sour for the residents of Beckingham Palace when it came to light that he had been having 'extra training' sessions with a bisexual PA, Rebecca Loos. This caused him to be dropped from some high profile endorsements.

Product managers dream - very possibly

Gay Icon - without doubt

World class footballer ? Eh, that would be a no. A one footed, non heading, tackle shirking metrosexual - yes.
