Savo Milosevic did it long before Beckham. Patrick Kluivert as well and Davids is all I can think of..

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Also Edgar Davids scored for Milan and Juve, scored 1 goal for Barcelona and scored 1 for Spurs. He's also scored in Holland for Ajax.

EDIT: See above >_<

Yeah, I seen that. I'm surprised he has only scored 10 times for Juventus.

[METALMAN]

Klinsmann scored in Italy, England, France and Germany but not in Spain. Still pretty good.

[ONO]

How could I forget big John Carew who has scored in Spain, Italy, France and England.

[therockbox]

Theirry Henry as well.

[-A-]

He might be the first English player to do it.

Thomas Gravesen has retired.

Former Everton and Real Madrid midfielder Thomas Gravesen has announced his retirement. The 32-year-old, who ended his international career in 2006 after winning 66 caps and scoring five goals for Denmark, has now hung up his boots for good.

"I have had fantastic years abroad. I played and lived in four countries. There are many people I need to thank," Gravesen said.

"I would do it all over again if I had the opportunity. I am 32 years old – 33 in March – so age and health decides it for me. I choose to stop."

Gravesen joined Everton in 2000 from Hamburg and became a fans' favourite during his five years at Goodison Park before leaving for Real Madrid. After a season at the Bernabéu, he switched to Celtic in 2006 but failed to establish himself and departed last summer after an unsuccessful two-year stint which saw him loaned back to Everton in 2007.

Stoke goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen hailed his former international team-mate as "one of the best".

"I understand Thomas' decision, but it is unfortunate for Danish football because for the last six or seven years he has been one of the very best and most striking Danish players," Sorensen said.

"Thomas is one of the best I have ever played with. He did everything, and then he had the winning mentality."

[Pesci]

He was a legend for me in my epic Spurs team on FM 2005. My best wishes go out to him.

[The Future]

I remember my first Winning Eleven 9 goal was by Gravesen!, a brilliant free kick against Mexico.

I was happy to see him comeback to Everton two seasons ago I think it was? all the best to him.

[Summers]

Heskey doesn't score enough goals.

HESKEY!

HESKEY!

HESKEY!

[alldaws1]

Game's already over at White Hart Lane

[Anderson]

West Brom are playing well, we're not doing too bad but I certainly expect us to kick on after this first goal and get three or four. And of course keep a clean sheet to get rid of another Chelsea record

[The Future]

Bad miss from Ronaldo's standards that one.

[TheRossWalker]

lol, scott carson

[The Future]

I pity him. He was pretty good before the Croatia incident...now he seems to fuck up whenever the pressure gets to him.

[Anderson]

Carson is and will always be useless. How he gets in England squads ahead of Rob Green is beyond me. Here come Stoke

[Anderson]

VIDIC!!!

He is the best defender in the world at the moment. Excluding his little blip against Spurs

[AJ]

Nemanja

Game over now, but would still like to see that Chelsea clean sheet record broken.

edit: Ahaha, 4-0. Awesome.

[Anderson]

AT FUCKING LAST

He's been really unlucky over the past few weeks, with shots going just wide or over the bar but now I think he'll kick on a get maybe 15 more before the end of the season. This all helps our goal difference aswell. Just hope they can hang onto the clean sheet.
