From an early age, David Robert Joseph Beckham wanted to be a football1 player, and not just any football player – he wanted to play for Manchester United and become a leading name in the sport. By the young age of 28, he’d become one of the most well-known names around the world, worn the coveted ‘No 7′ shirt in the most successful United squad ever, captained the England team in a World Cup tournament and signed a multi-million pound deal with another major name in football, Real Madrid. Objective well and truly achieved!

The Early Years

David was born on 2 May, 1975, in Leytonstone, London to parents Ted and Sandra, and soon the family moved to Chingford, Essex. Encouraged by his parents (his father Ted was also a United supporter), David set about earning his place in footballing history. In 1986, when he was just 11, David became skills champion for his age group at the Bobby Charlton Soccer Schools. This gave him the chance to attend a two-week trip during which he would train with FC Barcelona at the Nou Camp stadium, with the words of Bobby Charlton ringing in his ears stating that David was the best (more…)

Lionel Messi – Argentina & Barcelona

Lionel Messi is currently the best player in the world after leading Barcelona to more domestic success in Spain. Now he needs to step onto the highest stage in world football and do the same for Argentina. He plays in a slightly different role for his national side and Diego Maradonna has worked hard to get the best out of Messi, even pairing him with the highly experienced Veron in order to keep Messi focused.

If Maradonna manages to get the best out of Messi and with the likes of Sergio Aguero, Carlos Tevez, and Javier Mascherno also in the team Argentina may just claim the World Cup for the first time since Mexico in 1986 where Maradonna himself led the country to glory.

Luis Fabiano – Brazil & Sevilla

After a poor season by Luis Fabiano’s standards the Brazilian hit man will be hoping to claim the World Cup Golden Boot as the competition’s top marksman. He spearheads the Brazilian team and is the only natural striker in the team but has a good goal scoring record. He is also adept at holding the ball up and bringing the flair players of the Brazil team into the game. With the likes of Kaka and Robinho in support Fabiano is likely to be a key figure as to the destination of the World Cup this summer.
David Villa – Spain & Barcelona

The prolific David Villa signed for Barcelona before the World Cup after yet another successful season at Valencia. He is one of the world’s top strikers with a formidable goal scoring record at international level and is the favourite to claim the Golden Boot award. His partnership with Liverpool’s Fernando Torres is vital to Spain’s chances of success and with his future settled with the move to Barcelona he is definitely one to watch.
Wesley Sneijder – Netherlands & Inter Milan

The Dutch midfield maestro has had his best ever season with Inter Milan and played a huge part in Inter Milan’s treble success. He was instrumental in his club’s successful UEFA Champions League campaign and is expected to play a similar role for his count

Sneijder can score and make goals for others at will and should provide many opportunities for compatriots Robin Van Persie and Klass Van Huntelaar in the Dutch attack. The Netherlands are without doubt a team to keep a close eye on.

Wayne Rooney – England & Manchester United

If England have any chance of winning their first World Cup since 1966 then Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney will need to play an instrumental role this summer. Rooney is England’s main attacking weapon and after his most prolific domestic season England fans are full of hopes. He is perhaps the only member of the England squad capable of unlocking the world’s best defences and has a unique ability of bringing other players into the game with little effort.
Gianluca Buffon – Italy & Juventus

Gianluca Buffon is one of the world’s best goalkeepers and has been for a number of years. He was key to Italy’s successful World Cup campaign in 2006 and he will need to be on top of his game this time around too. The Italians have a limited goal threat making Buffon vital to his country’s attempts to retain the trophy with the team hoping for a number of clean sheets offsetting their lack of firepower.
Miroslav Klose – Germany & Bayern Munich

The German striker has been in poor form for his club, Bayern Munich, this season only managing three league goals. However he is often a different proposition at the World Cup. Klose was the Golden Boot winner in 2002, and runner-up in 2006 making him a constant goal threat. He spearheads an exciting looking German frontline and is usually accompanied by his Polish-born countryman Lucas Poldolski.
Cristiano Ronaldo – Portugal & Real Madrid

Cristiano Ronaldo became the world’s most expensive player when he joined Real Madrid for around £80m in 2009. He has enjoyed a successful debut season in Spain continuing his rich goalscoring form. As the Portugese captain, Ronaldo will be expected to pull the strings for Portugal who are in the same group as Brazil and Ivory Coast. If Ronaldo can reproduce his club form on the world stage then a weak looking Portugese side may well spring a few surprises.

New Delhi, Sep 16 (IANS) Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor says it is “unfortunate” that his upcoming movie “Anjaana Anjaani” is releasing Sep 24 – the day when the verdict in the 51-year-old Ramjanmabhoomi-Babri Masjid legal dispute will be pronounced.

“Unfortunately our film is coming on that same date. I wish the film wouldn’t have been releasing on Sep 24 because that day we need to seek harmony in our country and live with peace,” Ranbir told reporters here.

The 16th century Babri Mosque was demolished by Hindu mobs Dec 6, 1992, following rival claims by Hindu and Muslim groups. The incident triggered communal violence leaving thousands dead across India.

Now Uttar Pradesh is fearing a repeat of communal violence post the verdict, to be announced by a special bench of the Allahabad High Court. The state has already sought 35,000 paramilitary personnel for security duty from the central government.

The 27-year-old actor hopes the proceedings are peaceful.

“It is a very important issue. As a citizen of our country, I wish the energies of our hearts, minds and souls are (directed) towards that. I hope nothing goes unruly and everything goes in peace,” he said.

Ranbir, who was here to promote “Anjaana Anjaani” with co-star Priyanka Chopra, says he would have postponed the movie release if it were in his hands.

“Postponing the movie is not in my hands. A lot of people are involved now – producers, distributors and exhibitors. A lot of money is involved. It is really unfortunate that a film is releasing on a day like this when we should not celebrate. If I had my way, I would have postponed it.”

“Anjaana Anjaani” is a love story about two strangers who meet on a bridge while they are about to commit suicide, and fall for each other. It has been directed by Siddharth Anand.

Loving a geek isn’t hard to do, what with the social awkwardness and the over-zealous online gaming. Shopping for one however, can sometimes be a challenge. Throw in that added pressure to be extra thoughtful on Valentine’s Day, and you’ve got quite the conundrum (that’s geek for “problem”).

We’ve taken the liberty of rounding up some gadgety, geek-worthy gift ideas that really say “I have human emotions for you,” but in a cooler, more robot-like voice.

This is a guest post penned by Ethan Nicholas, developer of the million-dollar iPhone game iShoot and the newly released Kim Rhode’s Outdoor Shooting. Before the iPad was even announced, Nicholas was already conceiving his next game with the tablet device in mind.

The Internet is a funny place. After Apple announced its new iPad, I cringed at the hate being directed its way on sites such as Slashdot and Digg. Even the guys at Penny Arcade, whom I normally agree with, said “that iPad presentation had to be the worst thing I’ve even seen on on the Apple stage” and that Apple had failed to make a case for the device.

If you believe them, the iPad is going to be a massive flop.

Well, the unwashed masses on the Internet also predicted that the iPod would be a failure. They were wrong then, and they are (more…)
