I guess if a player is black and fast he is automatically highly rated. The same thing goes for Sterling at Liverpool. He is fast at a young age and he becomes a hot player.
These idiots today would probably overlook Beckham because he is white and not super fast. Even though he is greater than these black wingers will ever be.
Hazard wasn't bought by a Prem team until he was 2 time player of the year.
if beckham was playing right now in france he wouldn't play, not sure if he would be professional
iniesta (one of the best players in the world) wouldn't have turned pro in france either
there are many talented players that were refused in france, like pastore (now he plays in france after proving how good he was in italy, but he was refused in france before), forlan (the best player at the 2010 world cup), and many more who didn't have the chance of having another league in which they could play
griezmann had to go to spain to play
gourcuff's father is a coach in french league, otherwise i'm sure that he wouldn't be a professional player
i heard gourcuff's personal trainer say that in france we don't like this kind of players (he gave examples of these players: lucho gonzalez, gourcuff, pastore)
a commercial in which the scout that discovered andrei schevchenko explains how he chooses young players:
http://youtu.be/z4Ut4J7qZH8
no mention of physique, and he says that some players can make up for their lack of speed with a quck mind
he looks for technique, tactical awareness, coordination and reading of the game
this is how you must look for young players, but with these criteria there wouldn't be many black and arab players (blacks lack tactical awareness and coordination, arabs lack tactical awareness)

by the way regarding beckham i saw an highlight video of MLS that was posted because he scored from a dirct corner kick in that match
also 2 additional goals in that match were scored from beckham's crosses
he is the player with the most perfect shooting technique
he can put the ball where he wants to:
