i know i'll take a bashing from the english football fans here but here goes anyways... in retrospect to most english footballers, they do make too much money!  technically-that is skillwise-they're english players are far inferior to say, spanish, argentine, brazilian, dutch, czech or-oh my god! even french players. take david beckham for example... the man is above-average at best... he's not great goalscorer like ronaldinho, doesn't possess riquelme's vision, figo's footwork, nedved's playmaking penchant nor landon donovan's speed. we're never going to compare him to zidane for a myriad of reasons-most of which have to deal with ability. he doesn't even play any real defence. all of these downgraded abilities and yet, only ronaldinho makes more money than he does.  why?  because of looks...!  (chuckles...) then there're are individuals such as jermaine defoe whom i can never recall ever starting a match for team england-and rightfully so-yet he makes millions.  onward, we have the goalkeeper, robinson who would not start for my national team, romania if he were selectable by the head coach, victor piturca.  i cannot remember sol cambell, joe cole or shaun wright-phillips haven't really made serious impressions on me. ofcourse, there are exceptions... rooney is a boatload of talent, sheringham continues to be a warrior and steven gerrard is by far, the best midfielder england have now... he even scored today, versus trinidad and tobago.  then there are players such as crouch and, possibly the best england has to offer, michael owen. this brings us to a serious question: why don't these players make anywhere nearly as much as beckham-i mean, i really understand ronaldinho's income-he deserves every penny and more. what is depressing to me is that beckham isn't even the best midfielder on his national team let alone in europe, with the likes of rosicky, nedved, figo, ballack, antonio reyes and so forth-or the world with riquelme, donovan, ronalaldinho, robinho as well as julio baptista getting the nod from me over beckham-and i watch and follow loads of football-you would think i really didn't have a social life if you all would know how much football i follow. therfore, i know what i am arguing about! although footballers do not make anywhere near the kind of money that nba basketball players or pga tour professional golfers make on a yearly basis, some are grossly overpaid-especially in england.  to compare the earnings parity among the different sports: as much money as ronaldinho and beckham make-both in the vicinty of $25 million- kevin garnett of the nba makes $28 million per year in salary alone-not including very lucrative endorsements. shaquille o'neal makes more than $30 million a year in salary alone. let's not even discuss kobe bryant. the single most boring sport you can ever wacth on telivision, golf, brings tiger woods more than $60 million a year in total. phil mickelson more than $25 million. therfore, in comparison, footballers' pay, anywhere in the world i'm afraid, pale in comparison to athletic earnings from your brothers in arms from acroos the atlantic-and i do not mean canada!!! footballers face much more pressure to perform well than athletes here in the united states and then there're all the politics involved-such as when say, germany suit up against poland or ireland republic play england. everyone on both side play their hearts out when turkey face greece and serbia face either bosnia-herzigovina or croatia. we, as romanians, lose our minds when we play hungary. this unique to only football, and adds alot of pressure. when you really think about it, eleven or so men can cause the utmost national pride or adversely depress millions, in seconds. football is the only sport consistently used as political propaganda-remember el salvador-honduras? the match only pushed things over the edge and gave both nations' leade

Cracking Question, Cold Ale..!\nYou will have to put me out of my misery!\n\nI have racked my pretty knowledgable football brain and know of at least three players that played for all the teams mentioned but not necessarily meet the requirements of the question, Alex Scott, Andy Gray and Stuart McCall all jump to mind.

I think it might be Kevin Kuranyi of Schalke. He was left out of the National team.

Ok heres my view. Celebrities I don't think are over paid. Movie stars are definately not. The work they put into there role is amazing. As for footballers I believe they are stupidly over paid. When you think that people play football for fun the majority of football stars today are only in it for the money and don't even play that great. It get ridiculous, especially if they are supposed to big a fan of the team they are playing for yet want to demand as much money out of there team as possible. Come on the only good players I know are Van Nistleroy, Henry, and Terry.
