Someone once commented on the British media, thinking that they are very keen on making stars, so they have created one star after another, such as David Beckham, Wayne Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard and other local stars, all of which have been praised by them to a very high position.

It should be said that these players are very strong among the English stars, looking at the world, they cannot be said to be super-first-class, but first-class stars can also be achieved, but under the touting of the British media, these stars are comparable to superstars such as Ronaldo and Ronaldinho.

The consequence of this is that every year of the tournament, British fans will have high hopes for England, thinking, ah, this year's England is star-studded, with Wayne Rooney in the striker, Gerrard, Lampard, Beckham and other world-class stars in the midfield, and Ferdinand and Gary in the backline? Neville, John? First-class defenders such as Terry, except for the weaker goalkeepers, there is really no reason why they can't win the championship.

And then what?

After the European Championship, the British media set off a wave of trials, starting with Beckham, who missed a penalty in the European Championship and led to England's elimination, and then Scholes and others, which also directly led to Scholes announcing his retirement from the national team after the Community Shield.

After the disappointment of the 2006 European World Cup qualifiers in Germany in September, England fans rekindled the flame of hope that they could use their Italian silver to awaken England's fighting spirit and inspire the world-class quality of their players, especially against underdogs Austria and Poland.

But who would have thought that on September 4, England visited Austria, and after Gerrard and Lampard scored two goals to lead Austria, they were scored twice by Austria in the 71st and 74th minutes, and the away team was forced to draw by Austria.

After this game, Beckham, who played as the team's right midfielder, was not in good shape and failed to show his peak level and form, especially when Gerrard and Lampard both scored.

Eriksen stood in his favour for Beckham after the game, believing that he had worked hard in the game and was the captain of the team, that the team had failed to beat Austria and that all the players were responsible and that Beckham should not be left alone with all the trouble.

Terry and Curtis and other teammates also stood up for Beckham, believing that he should not bear these accusations that did not belong to him, and Gerrard even supported him, believing that Beckham's poor performance had something to do with the team as a whole.

'He's been playing as a playmaker for the Red Rebels for two seasons, he's shown world-class quality in that position, but in the national team he has to go back to the right side!

The support of the manager and the support of his teammates have weakened the momentum of the inverted shell, but this is only the beginning.

On September 8, when they challenged Poland away, Defoe scored first, and before the end of the first half, England suddenly lost the goal, and the opposing striker got a chance in the box and scored the equalizer.

After that, although England desperately tried to get back the score, but never found a way to break through the Polish goal, Beckham's performance on the right side improved compared to the previous game, several crosses were good, and the diagonal long pass was basically in place, but he still failed to show the strength that the world footballer of the year should have.

As many England fans on the Internet said, what they want is a captain who can dominate the game and lead the team to victory in the face of adversity, rather than mediocrity, who only knows how to run and pass blindly, and blindly for Gary? Neville stepped in and even ran to the captain of the centre-back in the box.

Football legend Alain? Smith criticised Beckham in the post-match paper, saying that he was hard working and hardworking on the pitch, but he seemed out of place with the team, his passing was full of mistakes, and he couldn't even find his teammates with his usual signature diagonal and long passes.

"Beckham, who has lost his passing ability, what else does he deserve to be an England international other than the title of England superstar with his head still on his head? Can he pass? I'm sorry, but he doesn't have that kind of technology! Can he outperform his opponents? I'm even more sorry, but his speed makes him only overtaken by his opponents! This has been proven countless times in both races! ”

Butcher, who is currently a well-known columnist for the English Broadcasting Corporation and the core of England's defense in the 80s, also criticized Beckham by name in his column.

"Although he is the captain, but on the pitch he is outside the overall tactics of England, his tactical style and overall thinking are out of step with the rest of the team, when Gerrard and Frank Lampard are attacking the opponent's defense again and again, he chooses to knock back again and again, he should not be in the starting line-up at all, let alone deserve to be an England international."

In addition to these two celebrities, there is also a large group of other media and experts who have taken charge of Beckham, even Martin? Samuel has to admit that Beckham and England look a little incompatible now.

What is the reason for this?

Samuel pointed out in his column that Eriksen wants to establish Gerrard and Frank Lampard as the core of the midfield, but Beckham has become accustomed to his position at the heart of the Red Rebels, he is used to directing his teammates to attack and defend, using his passing and running, but in England, all players can only rush, not know how to control the tempo, which is why Beckham does not allow into England's tactical system.

But Samuel also said that many England legends were eager for England to have a player who could control the tempo, and Beckham's success in the Red Rebels proved that he was fully capable of this, but Eriksen did not have the courage to transplant the Red Rebels' use of Beckham to England.

Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard are young, brilliant and can be on the pitch from anywhere on the pitch, their impact will ensure they are everywhere looking for holes, but their technical characteristics make it difficult for them to be the ones who control the tempo of the team!

"It's not that Beckham is too weak, it's that Eriksen doesn't have the courage to use him, and there are other players in England who don't know how to work with him, they don't have the football IQ that Beckham has!"

Martin? Samuel also concludes his column by pointing out that the Red Rebels' strength over the last year has been proven by countless people that they are playing with a smarter football IQ, so they can play with other English teams, even Manchester United.

"It's a pity, but I still have to say, Becky, maybe you should really consider quitting the national team like Paul Scholes and concentrating on the Red Rebels, with the club's results last year, plus your excellent performances so far this season, you can get the World Footballer of the Year, and you don't need England at all!"

Except for Martin? In addition to Samuel's few other people who dissect the causes, many more choose to add fuel to the fire, because in the UK, criticism of Beckham can be exchanged for more newspaper sales and more attention.

The British media has always been a combination of star-making and star-destroying, they will desperately tout a star, and then do everything possible to destroy him, and then another one, and then destroy, and so on, so that their newspaper sales can be maintained.

Seeing that Beckham was almost sentenced to death by one side, and the Red Rebels couldn't stand it, the club's official website specially collected a lot of data from Beckham's two games from the opta data, including his number of rescues, interceptions, passes, etc., hoping to prove Beckham's efforts and role from this aspect.

But in the midst of the massive wave of shellfishing, the Red Rebels' momentum appeared weak.

Xiao Yu published his views on these two games on his blog, and he also supported Martin? Samuel's analysis believes that it is not that Beckham is in bad form, because he is one of the best players in the Premier League this season, but that England simply does not use Beckham.

"When everyone is eager to bring down Becky, you should think about what will become of you if you lose him?"

At the same time, in the blog, Xiao Yu also criticized the fans who cursed Beckham and Victoria, especially Victoria, who was pregnant, and the fans reprimanded her in every way, which made Xiao Yu angry in the blog and reprimanded these ignorant people.

…………………… Unlike Beckham's status in the eyes of the England national team and fans, Beckham still has a huge appeal and influence in the eyes of sponsors.

With a strong start to the season, the Red Rebels Commerce Department also secured a new commercial sponsorship contract for Beckham, this contract for Gillette Razors, for a five-year contract with a sponsorship fee of up to 70 million euros.

The high-priced commercial sponsorship deal will also allow Beckham to surpass Tiger Woods, who did not play much golf this year, and F1 champion Schumacher to become the world's highest-paid athlete in one fell swoop.

The reason why Beckham was able to reach such heights is due to the commercial operation of the Red Rebels, who have found sponsorship contracts for Pepsi, Apple, Adidas, Vodafone, Martha, etc. in the past two years, and the sponsorship fees of these contracts are very high, which makes Beckham's personal income exceed that of Manchester United in one fell swoop.

Under the key management of the club's business department, the commercial value of Beckham and Redondo has been greatly raised, among which Redondo has retired, but the commercial value has already been formed, including Vodafone and many other large enterprises are borrowing the brand Redondo to develop the African market, and Redondo himself is committed to global charity.

The sponsorship contract signed with Gillette was won by the club for Beckham, so Mourinho made an exception to allow Beckham to attend the press conference arranged by the club after training, but the advertising for Gillette had to wait until after the match against Chelsea.

There was a one-week break between rounds 5 and 6 as the club prepared for the first round of the Champions League group stage in midweek, and David Beckham made an exception to get a one-day break to shoot an ad with Gillette.

At the press conference, Beckham answered his thoughts one by one in the face of a large number of questions from the media, but his tone was a little pathetic, which made many reporters who knew him a little puzzled.

Soon, when one of the reporters asked whether Beckham would consider withdrawing from the England national team because of this, Beckham's eyes immediately sparkled.

"The criticism of us was fair and I was frustrated that our performances in the European Championship and World Cup qualifiers did not satisfy and convince us and our supporters!"

At this, Beckham slowed down and took a deep breath.

'I'm 29 years old and after moving to the Red Rebels, I feel like I'm in great shape, the club, the coaching staff have helped me a lot in that regard, I thank them, maybe my body and legs can support me to keep running on the pitch for a few more years, but I have to make a choice, since everyone thinks I shouldn't continue to play for my country, then I respect everyone's decision!"

All the reporters were in an uproar, and no one expected that Beckham would choose to make this decision at this time, except for the Red Rebels and sponsor Gillette, who had long been aware.

David Beckham stood up from the press box and propped his hands on his body, "From today, I will retire from the England national team, although I am sad about this decision, but I wish the national team well, I wish them success, as for myself, I will serve the Red Rebels until I retire!" ”

With that, Beckham turned around and left the press conference!
