So since it's likely Mr. Beckham will pay for his exit, i figured we should go ahead and start speculating who will the "Crown Jewel" of the MLS sign next. Clearly Timmy loved the amount of PR, money and recognition Beckham brought, it only makes sense that he'll hunt for another.

Was there any talk of any other players before Beckham was signed?

Michael Owen. I only say this because he is ALWAYS linked to a move to the MLS. I am just waiting now for Zero to come shut me down. He would light up the MLS even into his 30's. We just hope he stays healthy

Ahhh Michael...

I'm not going to shut you down, MLS is too physical for the "Jewel of England's Crown". He would be injured more often than he is on Tyneside. I would like to see Michael in our colors one day. He's English, he doesn't give fuck all for the team, he'd collect silly wages while injured on the bench, and he'd receive a captains armband he doesn't deserve. You're telling me he's not LA Galaxy material?

Edit: Meant to add, who would kill your mother for a chance to start for England again

You forget that AEG had been working Beckham over for years before he came here.

We saw who is AEG's next target this past summer. Remember?

I don't know if he's 2.0 though, we probably won't see him until after he hits 30 and he's played his "last" WC in South Africa. What a coup it would be if we sign him during a slump before the World Cup and Brazil wins the whole thing.

2.0 will probably be a Mexican player that we get for 2 years. I'm guessing Adolfo Bautista who has been on the outs at Jaguares for some time, or Omar Bravo if Tigres is relegated.

Bravo almost signed with Houston, and since AEG still owns part of the Dynamo, I don't think they'd sign him for the G's. Especially since Bruce doesn't seem to be a big fan of the Mexican players.

I'd imagine they would be looking for someone who can Fill seats in OTHER cities, make people want to buy his jersey, gather some international soccer spot light and lastly someone who can help us into the play offs.

'Dino would do all of that, except i'm not sure what he's driven by more, his ego or his bank account.
Was Henry ever really an option?

Best ON-FIELD option for 2.0 in my book is:

Posted Image

His goals from this weekend at 2:00 and 5:35

He's 28. His contract with Pachuca should be up soon, and he's stated that he follows MLS and would like to play here. The guy is a natural leader, and, unlike Beckham, he's the kind of guy you can build a team around rather than just a support player.

He cost Pachuca approx. $1.5M if I remember correctly, and would be making less than that, so I'm guessing he'd be willing to sign for that amount.

Not to mention it would make Twigg, LOBO, and me happy. Ha ha ha.

Indeed.

I say you send a friendly recommendation email to Bruce...

"El Chaco" in 2010!

If you're not creepin', you're not trying...

Gimenez looks like the smart choice and Ronaldhino would seem like the business move. with AEG's wit, we will most likely get Ronaldhino.
