Forty minutes in front of Beck isn't really where it's at.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There are hundreds of Beckhams playing football all over the world.
David Beckham has never impressed me.
I don't see pitches down the middle anymore - not even in batting practice.
I spend the entire 90 minutes looking for space on the pitch. I'm always between the opposition's two holding midfielders and thinking, 'The defence is here, so I get the ball and I go there to where the space is.'
Behind every kick of the ball there has to be a thought.
Beckham is unusual. He was desperate to be a footballer. His mind was made up when he was nine or ten. Many kids think that it's beyond them. But you can't succeed without practising at any sport.
I got a phone call saying we are from the News of the World, and we're exposing you and David Beckham. My heart did not beat for a minute.
Beckham is a nice man and I'm sure he will reach 100 appearances for England. But he is just a good player, nothing more.
English football is so physical and fast that when you see a space, you have to go into it with all your speed.
Fame is everywhere; the 15 minutes are now the dominant themes of our times.
