[Marcus.]

wow good luck to him

[GiRTh]

Wonder what he'll do now?

[Alf]

Give that guy a Knighthood

[Locke.]

The Utd heroes are dropping like flies

Giggs next

[GiRTh]

In the next few years we're gonna get Owen, Gerrard, Lampard, Ferdinand, Terry all retire. There's not enough space on the pundits panel for all of them.

[GiRTh]

no no and no.Brace yourself cuz he's probably gonna get a knighthood eventually.

[Shaun]

I know :( :laugh: just think it's way too early for that yet, considering the likes of Lineker (a far better footballer) haven't.

Oh :joker:

Marc :bored:

[Marc]

AHHH

[HD]

fs, now everyone's going to go on as if he's dead like that Fergie fella.

[Marsh.]

Hopefully he takes his wife with him.

[Ryan57]

Shame. Such a legend.

[Omah]

IMO, he'll soon get bored and turn to sex, drugs and rock'n'roll ..... :pipe:

[MTVN]

He's been past it for years, has just relied on his name and reputation to still get games in top flight football

[Novo]

So many great memories of him :worship:

Obviously the goal against Wimbledon and his celebration after it

That game against Greece people will just remember him for scoring the free kick at the end but he was the best player on the pitch by far

and then the Champions League final where his two corners started the plays for both the goals United scored and he won the Corner himself for the second one

After getting sent off against Argentina the way he took that penalty against them in the 2002 world cup without any fear and just raced towards the fans and kissed the England badge

that free kick against Ecuador even though we were playing **** all game it was probably the only way we were going to score that day

[Brother Leon]

Deserves a Knighthood tbf. After Giggs though.

[MTVN]

Giggs doesn't :joker: if Beckham got one it'd be partly to do with other things he's done as well like all the stuff he did for the Olympics, Giggs is just an average player who's a twat off the pitch

[King Gizzard]

if you're going to give honours out willy nilly to Olympians who've won one Gold then Becks/Giggs/Scholes etc deserve the top honours

[Brother Leon]

The most succesful player the UK has witnessed. Travesty if isn't knighted.

utte nonsense
giggs is 10 times the player, hes the most successful british player of all time, FACT

in fact hes won 4 times as many medals , played ove 500 more games and lasted yeas longer....giggs is infinitely more successful

giggs was picked to captain great britain at the olympics , beckham didnt even make the squad as hes rubbish.....despite giggs being years older

giggs does loads fo chaities such as unicef, totally loyal to one club, never milked man utd fo cash either

giggs was never sent off in 940 man utd games, beckham has been sent off 10 times in club football alone

both men have been accused and were allegedly guilty of affairs

giggs should be knighted, i wouldnt knight beckham has got enough money fo achieving vey little

"Beckham didn't even make the squad as he's rubbish"

Who's talking utter nonsense now?

You don't become England's most capped outfield player of all time if your rubbish.

You don't win six premier league titles, a la liga title and a European cup if your rubbish.

he was rubbish at that time in his career....in fact after he left man utd he had 1 good season at madrid , then the rest of his caree was a money grabbing circus, a man whose lost touch with his talent, his mates and his roots.

as for giggs at the same time as becoming the most successful, most loyal most long lasting bitish footballer of all time....he amazingly has all the coaching badges too.......so count your lucky stars man utd you have this legend to coach you to greatness too....a true football man still at the top nearly 40.........beckham hasnt played at a high level fo the past 6 years
thats why legends like fergie gets such respect, devotion and a send off that will neve happen again

[Brother Leon]

This ain't a Giggs Vs Beckham debate ffs. Both are legends of the game in their own right. It's not a knock on Beckham that he isn't as big a legend as Giggs. Very few if any are in the Premier League.

[King Gizzard]

but for the record, Becks >

Feels so wrong that his farewell is in Paris....Paris.
