Beckham was never the world's best player 😂. Fucking hell that's a huge reach.

Hence, the word debatably...

[@basicfilmblog]

@@flashbackfootball1367 he wasn't the best player at utd or Madrid. Especially at that time period. So, no, it's not debatable. No one has ever said that he was close to that level until this very video.

Haaa
jealousy

[@sickboy6663]

There was a period where he was in the conversation, so very debatable.

[@basicfilmblog]

@@sickboy6663 no he fucking he wasn't 😂😂. Listen mate I'm a utd fan and I have been watching us for 25 years. He was never in our top five players. Not once. Good at crossing and passing. That was it. George best was right about him. He was a good player. That was it.

The best DM of all time is Frank Rijkaard, and the only ones close to him are Matthaus and Busquets
