Soccer Wallpaper: April 2009

Michael Owen

Michael James Owen (born 14 December 1979 in Chester, Cheshire) is an English football player who currently plays for and captains Newcastle United.
Owen has enjoyed a successful and high-profile career at both club and international level and was the Ballon d'Or winner in 2001. Owen is currently England's fourth highest scorer of all time, scoring his 39th and 40th goal on his 85th cap, and is England's leading competitive goalscorer with 26 goals. Owen was selected by Pelé as one of the FIFA 125 greatest living players in 2004.
At age 13, when Owen started attending Hawarden High School, he became available to sign "School Boy" forms with a club. He held talks with Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal, before he eventually signed for Liverpool, the club that persuaded him to attend the FA's School of Excellence at Lilleshall in Shropshire at age 14.
Since 1998 Owen was Liverpool's top scorer every season until he left the club. Real Madrid signed him for a fee of £8 million on 13 August 2004, with midfielder Antonio Núñez moving in the other direction as a make-weight.
Following their successful bid, Owen was presented with the number 11 shirt by Real Madrid. Owen had a slow start to his Madrid career. He was often confined to the bench and drew criticism from fans and the Spanish press for his lack of form.
On 24 August 2005, Newcastle United announced that they had agreed a club record fee of £16 million to obtain Owen, although they still had to negotiate with the player's advisers. Liverpool and local rivals Everton entered the fray, but were unwilling to match Madrid's asking price. As the 2006 World Cup loomed in a year, Owen wanted to get more playing time to secure his position as the first choice striker in the English squad and joined Newcastle amidst rumours that he had inserted an escape clause valued at £12 million.

David Beckham

David Robert Joseph Beckham, (born 2 May 1975) is an English footballer, who plays in midfield. He plays for and captains Major League Soccer's Los Angeles Galaxy[4] and is also a member of the England national team. He earned his much publicised 100th cap for England against France in March 2008.
He has twice been runner-up for FIFA World Player of the Year, and in 2004 was the world's highest-paid footballer. e was Google's most searched of all sports topics in both 2003 and 2004.
It was confirmed on 11 January 2007 that David Beckham would be leaving Real Madrid to join Major League Soccer's Los Angeles Galaxy. The following day, Beckham's official press conference was held in conjunction with the 2007 MLS SuperDraft.
I'm coming there not to be a superstar. I'm coming there to be part of the team, to work hard and to hopefully win things. With me, it's about football. I'm coming there to make a difference. I'm coming there to play football... I'm not saying me coming over to the States is going to make soccer the biggest sport in America. That would be difficult to achieve. Baseball, basketball, American football, they've been around. But I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't think I could make a difference.
Beckham's contract with Los Angeles Galaxy took effect on 11 July, and on 13 July, was officially unveiled as a Galaxy player at The Home Depot Center. Beckham chose to wear number 23, explaining it was because NBA legend Michael Jordan also wore 23. It was announced that Galaxy jersey sales had already reached a record figure of over 250,000 prior to this formal introduction

Steven Gerrard & Fernando Torres Wallpaper (Liverpool)

Gerrard and Torres in key for Benitez's band of brothers.
They called him "El Nino" in Spain and, for a while last night, Fernando Torres did look like a kid. But it is a nickname that the 24-year-old has outgrown.
Some of that may be due to the fact that, in Steven Gerrard, he has got a big brother to protect and provide for him and that, at Liverpool, he is now playing for a bigger club than Atletico Madrid who he left last summer for that big fee. The rest is down to his sheer talent and application. But the effectiveness of the partnership between Torres and Gerrard, and the outstanding goal return of the former, had dominated much of the build-up to this encounter.
The Liverpool manager, Rafael Benitez, said that Torres was the key and, if he is, then Gerrard is the man who turns that key in the lock.
