Beckham 4 part Neflix Documentary
- Thread starter MarylandMUFan
- Start date
Part 1 will good - the rest not so much !
Will they talk about his Qatar ambassador role?
Probably not, most people don't care
What don;t we know / haven't we already seen?
Doubtful, no one cares.
Excellent! Will watch. One of my favourite ever United players. Massive legend. Shame he went to Madrid.
Stop trying to get offended.
Genuinely curious. It's a 4 part documentary about his life so there's a good chance some of post retirement stuff will be in there.
Becks bending over for the Qatari crash was proper cringe
Nobody bends it like Beckham.
Tap in converted
Can't wait! Becks' footballing ability is so underrated now. Should have won the Ballon d'Or in '99 and there aren't many Utd players in history you could genuinely say that about.
Can’t wait, my fave player.
These things aren’t documentaries. They are image films.
Just finished it and really enjoyed it. HTG is correct, it is an image film but I still loved it.
Was disappointed they didn't cover his return to Old Trafford with AC Milan. That would have been cool to see again.
Thought it was very good.
Honestly didn't know that there were allegations of him having had affairs, so that was pretty disappointing.

Oh he had them. One of his conquests was named Loo I think, real name. Maybe that episode influenced the quaint names he reserved for his kids.
Rebecca Loos I think
Yes, thanks.
Yep and very disappointing.
If you look/ed like Beckham you would have been on prime Pamela Anderson at that time, not her
Well he did marry Plain Spice.
Didn't realise how much Hoddle had fecked him under the bus. Posh still doesn't like him even 25 years on refers to him as a person not man 
Hoddle was a walking bag of contradictions. Brilliant but poor coach, New Age philosophy but materialistic, very British but went to Monaco etc etc.Didn't realise how much Hoddle had fecked him under the bus. Posh still doesn't like him even 25 years on refers to him as a person not man
Should have married Pumpkin Spice. My personal favorite.
Yeah, I'd forgotten that too. It was shocking enough that he justified dropping Becks for a group game by claiming Becks didn't have his head in the game (what happened to keeping it behind closed doors?), and was only compounded by his comments after the red card vs. Argentina. It says a lot when Simeone himself came across better than the England manager. I'd say Hoddle played some part in setting the tone for the subsequent vilification of Becks back in the UK. It was like throwing chum to the tabloid sharks. Shameful from Glenn.Didn't realise how much Hoddle had fecked him under the bus.

Hoddle a proper dickhead.
I thought this was a good series overall, I thought his treatment of LA Galaxy when he tried to stay at AC Milan was terrible though.
Really? Were you too young to remember - it was in the news loads at the time.
I watched ep 1 last night with my wife. That was the time I lived in England getting my masters, and became a United fan. Gave me chills. Oh the salad days, where have you gone?!
Looking forward to the rest but assuming ep 1 will be my favorite, obviously.

They weren’t just allegations
Thought it was decent.
That being said, found it odd that the 95/96 season wasn't mentioned. That was his breakthrough season and he played a fairly important part in us winning the double.

Wasn't heroic enough.
Christ what a player he was.
I thought it was decent too, but my gripe was that they made it seem like United fans didn't rally around him until the Inter Milan game where Becks was instrumental in Yorke's two goals. As if those two assets somehow redeemed him in our eyes. But that quarter final was in March 1999, long after the events of the World Cup. From what I remember, most United fans protected him from the ludicrous outrage from the very beginning.
I Love him, he was an immense player and seems a quality bloke imo.
I like Victoria too, they seem like fun people who, while achieving their dreams to a dizzying height, haven’t completely lost touch with who they are.

LOL!
Great watch, even the wife who has zero interest in Football enjoyed it.
Both Becks and Posh came a cross as very decent people, they have been through a lot of shit but are very well rewarded for it. Posh,s attitude dealing with her husbands affairs was particularly dignified though there may have been some serious editing of her interviews.

Google for "Rebecca Loos" and "Beckham leaked emails". They are plastic.
