David Beckham snubs Man Utd team-mates as he names best player he's ever played with
England football legend David Beckham has snubbed all of his former Manchester United team-mates after being asked the best player he appeared alongside.
Beckham spent the first decade of his senior career playing for the Red Devils, before spells at Real Madrid, AC Milan, LA Galaxy and Paris Saint-Germain. He was also involved in the England national team for 13 years, captaining the Three Lions for six of those.
That meant he played alongside many greats of the game, including Ryan Giggs, Eric Cantona, Zinedine Zidane, Ronaldo, Kaka, Ronaldinho and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. But only one of those greats was allowed to be named when Beckham was asked the greatest player who was his team-mate.
The legendary winger was featuring as the latest subject of Gary Neville's The Overlap YouTube channel 29 questions series. Among the subjects he was quizzed on was his best former team-mate, with Beckham snubbed his fellow United greats.
In a tongue-in-cheek response to Neville, Beckham named Zidane as the best player he featured with. Beckham said: "The best player I've ever played with, apart from you, Zidane."
Beckham played alongside Zidane for three years at Real Madrid, winning the Supercopa de Espana together. That was to be their only piece of silverware during the duo's time at the Bernabeu, with Zidane retiring a year before Beckham left the club for LA Galaxy.
