They were a better combo than most right flanks to have played the game...

If it wasn't for the lack of natural physical intensity now in the players, you'd probably sign most of them for the 1st team. Maybe not David May though.

I'd certainly promote Nicky Butt right now from Academy Boss to 1st team player.

Becks should come back for pre-season and just do 2 week cross training class for the squad

Gonna take far more than 2 weeks to teach Ashley Young how to cross

Well Beckham certainly was. Neville was pretty average; but in a good reliable way as a passer. Beckham was incredible.

Beckam crossing is still wayyyy better than any player if we have in squad.

All getting caught up in our emotions here, but if the stamina and legs were still there, then yeh, sign em up. but as you know those 2 things are the first to go, father time is a biitch.
Case in point, Juan Mata, lovely player, but his legs have gone.

I think he’s still playing haha

I don't think I've seen a better crosser than Beckham. He still looks in good shape as well.

Another pile of tosh

Neville and Beckham in different ways - because, you know, they played in different positions that required different disciplines - made an equal contribution to the squad, and in the games they played in.

Beckham was replaced, Neville wasn't, that's how important he was.

But, hey ho, slating Neville is a dumb ass exercise for some.

An average passer Iamme, which is true. I didn’t connect on the rest of his game.

Comment, not connect.

Loved Ole's comment after the game: "Jaap and Ronnie, we could do with them two at the back"

De Ligt & Tuanzebe! (One can dream).

Beckham is/was such a unique player. I can’t think of another player like him, especially with his energy, dynamism combined with that vision & passing. His ability to move the ball forward at pace over distance with laser guided precision was so important to the way we played. There really hasn’t been another player like him since he retired that I can think of. And that’s without mentioning crossing & set pieces!

The way he moves his body when he runs and passes is so unique too, very distinctive. If he was a silloutte you could tellnit was Becks.

Maybe one if his sons inherits his abilities and can where the No.7 for us again.

I disagree on Neville. His abilities as an overlapping full back who would put in a good cross are often overlooked. Becks was fantastic and his good looks and celebrity see his footballing talent regularly get downplayed
