The Beckham documentary on Netflix

[Alfs]

"Love him or loathe him, it's a brilliantly made insight into the life of a superstar. My only complaint is that he didn't play for us."

Might get round to watching it some point but understand as said its just a massive Beckham controlled PR piece. You have to give the guy credit .... he has amassed a tremendous fortune and profile from probably being about the 5th best player in the great Ferguson Man U team. Understand he tries to pretend that the stories about him poking Rebecca Loos (and others) were just hurtful rumours.

"That's an interesting take Manuel. I thought it was a massive pufff piece... and getting Brooklyn to do the odd Saturday job has really helped the failed actor, model, photographer and chef - in whose career development multiple millions of other peoples money has been spunked - boasting Elton John, David Furnish and Liz Hurley as godparents and who's status is now merely described as a 'socialite' keep his feet formly on the ground. And I thought his Dad came across as thick cսnt"

"Cholo - Fair point, but at least he isn't Wall. He just reminded me of a typical dad on a Sunday morning when I was playing football as a kid. A dying breed that type of character."

"Manuel wrote... He seems like a good bloke too, massive Man Utd fan. Hang on, in the very same sentence you say he seems like a good bloke, then go on to call him a massive cսnt. Make your mind up!"

"Enjoyed it Alfs, found myself a bit bored at times, but overall, as you say, it was well made. Thought they spent too much time on the sending off against Argentina and the aftermath that followed, which now looks massively OTT, most people don't even give a fuck about the national side now, and I had forgot that his first game back was at our place, lol. The fella is a grafter with a lot of self belief, and very dedicated to what he does/did, you can't deny him that. I didn't realise how much of an influence his old man was on him when he was a kid playing football growing up, to the point where Beckham may have not even made it had it not been for his old man pushing him so hard like he did and not letting him get carried away He seems like a good bloke too, massive Man Utd fan. I'll also credit Beckham and his missus for not spoiling their kids and making them realise the value of a pound note, sending them out, when they were old enough, to do Saturday jobs, so they could buy their own sneakers, etc."
