Seems pretty normal that a world class footballer would do well eventually. Pirez was the same at Arsenal (and Bergkamp).
As it seems pretty normal that Beckham won't stop being a world-class footballer.

Totally agree with everything said.

a bit like 10 or 15 other players in the squad last season.
No reason to single Seba out, he was one of several underperformers last season.

Human nature Murt.
Most of the other players are not considered world-class. If Seba was touted as a better player, or as the best in the world which some claimed, the criticism was understandable.

Last season he averaged a goal every two and a bit games which is what a great striker should be on!
Please his corners and free-kicks set up more goals than any other player.
He's not match fit yet and is completely different to veron, so no comparision can be made and stop giving him stick!</strong><hr></blockquote>
Yes, the situation in this forum is going very strange in these two days. I can fully understand a player getting critized for lazy, not giving his full effort, just after a very bad match, or has been underperform for a very long period. But this lastest Beckham-hunting campaign is abnormal, it just suddenly came out from nothing! I hope any true United supporters can keep away from it and do the thing a "supporter" should do.

as Liv says Murt its human nature. He cost 28m of course we expected more from him. If we wanted to see someone constantly give the ball away we could have brought in a fan, stuck a shirt on him & threw him out on the pitch. Hell, who knows he may have done better than some of Verons performances last year.
