I think it's a bit premature to call him a sellout. If he comes over here and works hard, you should all eat your foot off. He may truly want the challenge of trying to build a sport in this country. We all know that soccer is huge in the youth ranks and then it fizzles out as kids get older. This might be the bridge that gaps the two. If it doesn't then it doesn't but we should at least give the guy a chance. He has plenty of money already without having to leave his country to get more.
I doubt we'd ever see Zidane over here. His country would disown him. Figo is much more likely to play. Figo would be a decent draw but wouldn't have near the amount of exposure as Becks.

We hate Nottingham Forest,
We hate Liverpool too, (and Leeds),
We hate Manchester City,
But United we love you - altogether now
Glory, glory, Man United,
Glory, glory, Man United,
Glory, glory, Man United,
And the reds go marching on, on, on.
