That's what I meant,personally I think Beckham was a lot better player than people make out. But I agree not as good as the likes of Suarez.

IMO you cant make comparisons like that they are different players that bring different things to a team. In certain cases Beckham would bring more to a team than either of those two. In other cases the reverse would be true. Football is a team game and the trick is to assemble 11 players with qualities and attributes that together is something greater than the sum of its parts.

Bale left the field of play. Did he get permission from the ref to return?

Beckham was the most overrated player of his generation and maybe before
As a dead ball player he was good but was a marketing dream - especially when he married that talentless bint
If he was Iain Dowie off the field he wouldn't have the career he did.

Uuurrrmmmmm ....................... so you'd be a Liverpool supporter then.
Take your blinkers off for a minute Phil & tell everybody how he managed to get 115 caps for England by being the most overrated player of his generation! Obviously the England managers couldn't see what is so blindingly obvious to you!
And as a dead ball player I would say he was better than good ......................... I'd say he was amongst the greatest of his generation.

Football is a team game dotted with moments of genius of which beckham had his share. You just sound like a bitter/jealous Liverpool fan.

No not bitter at all - just think he was very overrated as a player and his image got him further than his ability.Bitterness oozing from that post.

Nothing to do with who I support or blinkers - an opinion on a player.
I found him very overrated - he could cross and deliver a deadball - that doesn't make him amongst the greatest of a generation.

Egad! I need to lie down! We agree! Though he was some way better than a 'good' dead ball player imo. Apparently a reasonably inspirational Captain too.
And Sawtooth is correct, imo, too.

That's what I thought,not sure if there was any need to insult the mans wife.

Who said he was the greatest of his generation?? I'm sure even Beckham wouldn't claim to be.

No,not at all.:lol: Not even a wee bit,no.
As a Scotsman I hate the guy but to say he was overrated is just plain ridiculous.

He couldn't track back very well and his tackling was dire at times.
Phil. It appears you have a touch of Suarezitis! Even when 'correct', you are condemned!

Nope not bitter - it's just an opinion about a footballer - that's all

But it does make it sound very bitter & personal when you feel the need to insult his wife,after all we were talking football.

A blinkered one at best. He plays for club that dominated english football while yours slid into decline.

Who is support and the state of my club is irrelevant - and the success of his club is also irrelevant to his own ability
I'm not saying he is/was a bad player - he was a very good at free kicks and crosses.
