Beckham hits back at Donovan

England midfielder David Beckham has criticised the "unprofessional" conduct of Los Angeles Galaxy team-mate Landon Donovan.

The American international had question Beckham's commitment to the club and also Major League Soccer.

Beckham, who has been on loan to Italian giants AC Milan, revealed he would be seeking to talk to Donovan, saying: "It's unprofessional. In every football player's eyes throughout the world it would be unprofessional to speak out about a team-mate, especially in the press and not to your face."

He added: "In 17 years, I have played with the biggest teams in the world and the biggest players and not once have I been criticised for my professionalism.

"It's important to get this cleared up, and I will be speaking to Landon over the next couple of days."

Beckham, recently recalled to the England set-up by manager Fabio Capello, added: "Me and Landon will talk, but that will be a private conversation."
