David Beckham

Platini Played For Kuwait

With the Netlix Beckham documentary being a streaming hit this week, we thought we’d jump on the Beckham bandwagon too and do an episode devoted to one of football’s greatest icons - on and off the pitch. We discussed some of his greatest goals and assists, as well as some of the great shirts he wore on the pitch and how we all came to learn the word ‘metarsal’ because of him.

Matt’s Choices

1. Beckham’s lobbed goal v West Ham in 2002
2. Beckham’s 2006/2007 La Liga winning season
3. LA Galaxy shirts

Marc’s Choices

1. The halfway line goal against Wimbledon
2. Beckham’s metatarsal injury
3. Beckham’s assist to Ronaldo in Copa dely Rey semi-final in 2006
