Beckham was deadly on the right

- Bekham was so dangerous in a wide playmaker role. I believe David Bekham was a misunderstood player. He wasn't a classic winger or a classic midfielder, he was something in between. A player who had an incredible pass, best leveraged on the wing to feed the 2 strikers Sir Alex Ferguson liked to play with. To add to his talent, he also worked hard for the team, helping his full-back by tracking back when necessary.

The biggest myth about Beckham is that he was a “luxury player”. It was infact the complete opposite, he had a tremendous work rate.
Did you know him then?
@@ollieculley671 I mean anyone who’s watched him play in the late 90s and early to mid 2000s knows what kind of a player he REALLY was. I think it’s mostly people from the newer generation who have this misconception by simply looking at those YT compilations where he’s spraying those long balls and crosses elegantly that he was probably some luxury player but that’s far from the reality. He could’ve played as an all action wingback or a tireless box 2 box mid in the modern game based on his work rate.
Relax. Nobody who knowe football says that. Most people know he had immense stamina and worked his tail off.
when he played here, in Italy, Ancelotti said that he was expecting something like a snob super model and, instead, he found out that he was a massive professional. God i love David and i'm so glad he played for AC Milan, he's name Is in our history too. very underrated player and kind person
What exactly do you mean luxury player? Surely it has absolutely nothing to do with his good looks and extrovert personality, right?
Beckham was perfect in an era where they still managed to put two upfront strikers. Those crosses were necessary and he keep sending them at his will. Now wingers are more of inside forwards so those classic right midfielders are rare these days. Vincente and Bern Schneider ze roberto also comes to my mind as great RM/LM. There were many tbh it was standard back then.
Luiz Figo, Giggs, Robben (at chelsea) etc
Yh. You really know football. Back then, wingers were not inverted. They played naturally and that gave them the edge for the crosses. I think Robben (at Bayern), Messi and CR7 (at Madrid) changed the role of wingers in the modern game. Formerly, wingers were not judged by goals but rather assists. Now, it's all about goals.
Best era
@@BertoKeys Barcelona always played that way. Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Riquelme all played as wingers There due to them playing 4-3-3
@@Djdkdkdndkzn1 I think Rivaldo was amf, I never saw him as a winger
He is the greatest crosser of the ball of all time…
Absolutely unbelievable passing ability!
I've heard that Nolberto Solano had better stats. Not too sure though🤔
Either him or Pirlo
@@hommofroggy5727 if u talk about crosses becham is better as he used to play as a rmf but if u go for passes pirlo is better
@@jeremykun4926 crosses (also including free kicks), long balls and passing. They are both amazing. As someone who has watched them both in 2009 live with Milan i cannot put one over the other. Best overall passers, crossers, long ball players that i have ever seen. The weight they put and when to put it was something different.
@@head85 Nolberto? WHo the fuck is he? LOOL. Stats doesn't tell the full story. Eye test is equally if not more important and also beckham did it at a top level for 2 decades. The guy played for 3 of the elite teams- MUFC, Real Madrid and Ac milan and showed his crossing skills plenty of times whilst he was there.
Lol, my first thought was "I don't remember this haircut?"
Still probably the best crosser of the ball in the Prem'
Bruh😂
Dont need trick, dont need to be fast, just 100% passing accuracy from the legend

@@disobeytoday4685 I was barely out of nappies by that point too young to watch it, but seen the highlights plenty of times, we were played off the pitch that night, it was nothing short of a miracle what happened.
The amount of weight he puts on those crosses is 10/10. Just look at those unique type. It's not a spam it just different weighted ball for every angle.
He crossed the fucking ball !!
Different weight for every angle. Shut up !!

@@mrflynn1205 Agree.zzzzzz.
Huge work rate and clinical. Surgical passer
I know that many British are not naturally talented like lets say the South Americans, but Beckham is an epitome of how the British take their time in inculcating some basic football skills in players. The British are well known to be textbook people and players like Beckham, Gerrard, Frank Lampard and Harry Kane etc really mastered that.
Facts. Footballing as a study, something the Americans haven't achieved.
They didnt win anything that season, but what a fantastic team that was.
This was my first season seriously watching United. i still remember how slow Blanc was, how terrific Beckham and RvN were and Barthez what a clown!
His passes, freekicks and hairstyles 😍
One of the best goals ever two legends
Players like Paul Pogba and Neymar could learn a lot from Beckham about how to be megastars while still delivering the goods on the field. He was elite everywhere he went.
No he kind of flopped at Madrid.
@@brunaciompi1717 That was more down to the failed Galactico project of 03-10 than anything else

@@mrflynn1205 True for the most part but he could have achieved more with different career choices and the real super-stars missed his presence for a while for both United and England. He was a severely limited player but he was not a myth.
@@AnthonyMunyi It was in good part his fault.
He was not as committed as he was for England and United.

He is a legend
I saw him play at sincil bank, Lincoln city were playing Preston in what is now league 2. He had a loan at Preston,his name wasn't on the team sheet and he was head and shoulders above the rest.

That Black and Silvery Gray united kit is criminally underrated kit! that design was out of it times...
The most memorable goal scored by an English football ever was David Beckham 's free kick against Greece in 2001
..."give that man a knighthood!"
Really ??? What about Geoff Hurst v Germany 1966, David Platt v Belgium 1990, Paul Gasgoigne v Scotland 1996…..all of these where in actual finals and your raving about a goal scored by an outrageously overrated player against a crap opponent who England nearly fucked up WC qualification against.
He was a great player
Even though he was outrageously overhyped by the media his teammates who were real stars missed his presence (at least for England and for United)

Please don’t answer because you will only embarrass yourself ! Again !!
Those kits are mint
That first touch from Scholes though
In the modern game, I think Beckham would be a central midfielder in the mold of Toni Kronos and Xavi
He sometimes played that role for United. I think he played that role in the 1999 Champions League final because Scholes and Keane were suspended. However, he should always be considered a winger
@@disobeytoday4685 He was nominally a winger or right-sided midfielder but in many games i have seen he was all over the place.

Brilliant winger... Didn't need pace because his vision and precision were surreal. Him, Scholes and giggs just knocking the ball around like they were messing around at the local park.
Brilliant Winger ?????
He couldn’t run for god sake !!
How can a brilliant winger be brilliant if he can’t run or beat a man ???
As for “vision and precision” being “surreal” that’s sounds like the kind of crap pundits say. They’re not your words mate.
By the way Paul Scholes was really good. Not Surreal or Precise just a really good player.

What a player scholes was.
bottom line is that Beckham was very very good, he was unplayable, unreal a genuine talent, overall a hardworking professional who has earned his place on footballing map.

God i missed watching him play back then with united. Those shouts "Beckhammm!!" He was like a computer glitch during late 90s and early 2000s. The days where football was all about delivering those crosses and long pass. He was absolutely flourish during those times. The type of winger that does not suit modern football now. My persoal favourite moment was that goal in fa cup semifinal! But it was overshadowed by giggs masterpiece
He was NOT a winger
@@mrflynn1205 He was a sui generis winger or side-midfielder who could also play in other positions.

King Beckham
Best right foot in his era..
Shambolic defending on that second goal.
Major ball watching on Scholes' goal too. Shows how bad English football can be/was.
True true. Beckham's style suited the lower standards of international football very well, unfortunately for him he was harshly sent off in the 1998 world cup and in 2002 world cup he was recovering from an injury.
Just love to see beckham supplies those crosses. He always made it look so easy with the swing of his right foot seems so effortlessly and able to be precise with the right amount of power for the receiver to trap the ball easily. Sad when SAF decided to release him, but in came a promising rising star CR7. Wonder if CR7 would have joined if beckham hadn't leave Man U? How fantastic would it be if becks, giggsy, CR7, scholes were to play alongside.
David James obviously spent more time on his hair than he did training.
He reminds me of the passing ability of United's Maguire..
Interesting comment
and another amazing hairstyle
I watched Beckham play from the incident with Diego Simeone in the 1998 World Cup until the time he played for AC Milan.
Bro, I'll tell you the real truth:
Okay, it's true that Beckham is a diva....Luxury player....a celebrity.
But on the pitch he is a hard worker, a great player and his right foot is a lethal trajectory.

@@oluwaogundiran Let’s stop using buzz words like generation, these are just bullshit phrases. Because for some reason they only seem to use this word in relation to midfielders. Anyway I have two better players who actually played in the same team as him. Scholes and Giggs who basically pissed on him as a footballer, and Gerrard was a much better player than him also. At that time I would go as far as to say that their where probably footballers in the second or third tier who had loads more ability than he did.
He could pass and cross a ball but with no pressure and he was good at striking a stationary football and that was pretty much it, he couldn’t dribble or beat a player which considering he was supposed to be a right sided player it normally comes in the description to at least be able to do these things to some sort of level and he couldn’t.
He was a grossly overrated player who was elevated to his status by being promoted and overhyped by pundits and the media alike to an embarrassing level.
