    Beckham was a superior player because he applied himself far better and was naturally more athletic, for me.
    They're both very good passers of the ball and have very good vision and range, but there's no comparison when it comes to fitness and consistency.

    But back to basics. There's a reason why Beckam played for the top teams, and he didn't/

    Austin got that one goal. Will it be rememberedf? no.

    Beckam was a kid, at the start of his career.

    Yes he got lucky it was the start of Sky.

    But he still won.

    I'm not knocking him. Beckham was a very good and very consistent player.
    Winning trophies doesn't necessarily prove that, though.
    Djimi Traore won the Champions League, FFS.

    Wes Brown won five titles, two FA Cups, two League Cups and two Champions Leagues.
    Maxwell, the former Barca, PSG, Inter and Ajax left-back won 38 major honours, more than anyone else.
    Is he the best player of all time?

    He was pretty good and didn't mind being rotated out. The same applies to Phil Neville.
    Won lots of trophies by being squad players in very good teams, for the most part.
    They didn't suddenly become **** when they left Man Utd, but won no more trophies.

    Becks to me was good at free kicks and long passes but so were many others. The press built him up to be something he was not to sell their rags...He was just above average as a player and he played the system to perfection and i dont blame him for that....I like the guy but he was never a player i would call great....
