Of course he could dribble
See, I watch these highlights and I still think Beckham was capable of taking another step-up with certain aspects in his game.
As great as Beckham was I felt in his last season, and SAF likely felt the same irrespective of the flying boot incident, that he was far too eager to pass his way out of trouble rather than try something else.
Sure,the question levelled at me here would obviously be :
' if you could pass as great as Beckham, why do anything different ? '
And its a
just question and one that I can only answer based on personal preference of how I wanted to watch him develop this aspect of his game because,people who watched Beckham break into the side in the early days, he was certainly capable of doing alot of these particular moves more consistently as he was reaching his peak.
And,as we know, SAF has always put that particular question mark over Beckham's head when he reminisces over his time at United and how much more Becks could've progressed this side of his game had he not,in SAF mind,took his eye off the ball somewhat.
