Great video ❤
Loving this episode and great to see all those legends together and all of them have played against my team haha but good listening to this and hearing Beckham
He’s only played 5 games
He’s had some work done
🤣
Not many blokes Keano would allow to put their hand on his shoulder like that but Becks's dad is one of them, you can see how the core team mates were genuinely like family, they knew each others family well, mums, dads etc I think this is what made Man Utd so formiddable on the pitch, the players would die for each other and fight to the last, and do it against the world coming at them, if necessary
The pity talk over Maguire is pathetic. He's been lousy for seasons now, was very arrogant about it, and keeps getting picked for England despite there being other worthier contenders. People have an absolute right to moan. If Southgate didn't pick him 90% of the flack would disappear.
,your in Barcelona airport,no I'm not,Keane he should have known by the ringtone 💯👌
Good hear the stories but in one sense, Alex Ferguson's should be defended more? You don't run and be so successful and make players without making decisions that he did!! He made so many careers, and as we are seeing now the club has never been the Same literally since he left and plus now his wife has passed!! More respect for the man!!
Beckham's father came in and instantly became Wrighty and Keano's father 😂😂😂😂
Bit of a Alex Ferguson's bashing, he was so successful for the club and since he's gone the club is in shit!!!
As a West Ham fan always had loads of respect for Keane what a man. A proper Footballer. Nice touch from Ted he must be very proud of David. That was a good watch.
Why can't I find the part 1 to this?
That was absolutely brilliant.. ❤
SAF felt Beckham changed with the fame and wasn't as focused. Reality is he was still a great player at Madrid.. Milan or PSG. It was a mistake selling him.
When is the next episode coming out, love this series btw
Brilliant episode so far, these guys specially Mr. Neville & Mr. Gallagher are fantastic hosts.
I could watch 100 hours of this lot
Bro that’s harsh for a haircut man damn fergie 😂
Is this guy trying to tell me he's 48!
Beck always appears to pose with right and positive attitude, no air and approachable, a great model indeed!
Roy Keane was the glue that stuck that team together. Brilliant player.
Manchester United legends and not forgetting arsenal legend Ian wright
Great show. Great entertainment. Great people. Thanks for making these. Wish we had quality stuff on football like this here in The Netherlands.
I THINK THIS PODCASTS WOULD SHOW TO THE NEW ONES HOW FOOTBALL WAS ABOUT RESPECT FOR THE CAPITAN TEAM WORK ETHICA AND SPIRIT … RUNNING TO WIN WITHOUT MILLIONS ON BANK ACCOUNTS … PASSION IS GETTING LOST ON MODERN FOOTBALL UNFORTUNATELY… 😏😏
What a podcast 🤩
cant wait for the next ep
Roy is a natural leader , he doesn’t want to people to look up to him but they all do
How has Harry maguire come up in this conversation? Harry maguire got booed by England fans because he dosent play well. That's all that's happened, can someone give me a quote on somone saying something "disgusting " or "abusive" about maguire??
Im the worlds best conker player to have ever lived.22 boys kicking a ball about is a joke
Sneaked into his dads room and demanded ‘we want your son’. Sounds like a kidnapping
Hands down the best Beckham interview I've seen. You can see him being himself because these are the lads that knew him before the noise. Big up to Gary on this one as well👏🏾
After watching the documentary i have new respect for Becks
Our GOAT is humble..🙌🫶🫶🐐
David Beckham and the 92 Foundation! 🇶🇦
Amazing interview
Roy Keane really needs to get some therapy. His bitterness towards Alex Ferguson is unhealthy and it will eventually catch-up with him.
This was brilliant to watch. As a boy Becks was my absolute idol, I adored him like kids adore Messi and Ronaldo now. I love hearing the old United lads talk about that era at the club, so much nostalgia, respect, love, humout etc between them. I could sit and watch & listen to them hours just talk
Worst advice from beckham was Harry needs to keep doing what he’s doing!! No Harry needs to stop what he’s doing!!!
the beckham 98 incident is scarily similar to euro 21 with saka, rashford and sancho, except the racism in their case. maybe a doc on that someday
Captain
"Wasn't every single game… we were all right on some!"… gold dust Carra!! Hahahahahahaha!
Loved every second of this, absolute gold 👏🏼
