How good is David Beckham?

SoccerBy VictorM:

And further, how good can the LA Galaxy get (by MLS standards) if they can stay healthy and fix the defense? Well, this video below shows Beckham's precision passing at it's best. A simple little touch that many world class players can imitate but none do it as often and as accurately as Beckham (and yes, I'm including Riquelme, Deco, Ronaldinho, and others). Calm down folks! I'm not saying Beckham is a better player than them, I'm just saying when it comes to precision passing from the right wing, nobody does it better than Goldenballs.

But also look at how good a finisher Carlos Ruiz is, despiting being the most annoying player in the league. Watch the calm, cool finish of the first goal, the excellence touch from an almost impossible angle on the second goal, and the run on the third goal, finding the seam between the two central defenders, and slotting it home. Notice (on the 3rd replay) how he lifts his head, sees the keeper coming, and curves the ball around him with the outside of the foot. Pure class! With Beckham and Donovan in the lineup, watch for a 20+ goal season from this professional diver striker.
