Slow start for beckham at AC Milan

On loan player and Former England captain, David Beckham was surprised to be handed a start on his debut for AC Milan in their 2-2 draw at AS Roma.

It wasn’t the dream start that Beckham would have wished for but he gave an industrial performance on the right of a three-man midfield and showed several glimpses of his passing range, crossing ability and even his sterling defensive work.He had one shot on goal but his curled effort from outside the area lacked the pace to trouble Doni in the Roma goal.

Beckham began the match by staying deep and often leaving his team-mates to forage forward but as the game wore on and he found his feet, he increasingly started to make typical bursting runs down the right flank, whilst also coming inside to see more of the ball.

“It’s similar, of course there’s more of a tactical level in Italy, there always has been that and there always will be but I think I adapted pretty well and I enjoyed it.Tactically we like to keep the ball in midfield and play the ball forward as much as we can and once you get into the game it opens up more.” comment Beckham on the I

Beckham didn’t get a chance to strike one of his trademark free-kicks despite Milan having two opportunities around the edge of the box.

But with Ronaldinho and Andrea Pirlo in the side, the Englishman admitted he might have to bide his time before getting to set his sights.

Beside that,Beckham also do not having problem to communicate with other player.“The majority of the players speak very good English and football is an easy language to learn.”

“We talk English all the time, we’re also together in the bus,We connected well and I said I will help him as much as possible to feel good and to be sure he can add value to the team for the couple of months that he’ll be here.” comment seedorf on Beckham
