Chris Waddle says Beckham would not get in his top 1000 premiership players....

He certainly wont get in the top 3 penalty misses of all time.

i've got something he can get in to

Never was the brightest individual - his time as a manager at Burnley highlighted his intelligence (or lack of). Decent player though

that comment is the highlight of twaddle's career.

David Beckham pointed an accusing finger at a mud-pack penalty spot when he skied his crucial kick into the stands and almost out of the ground at the Stadium of Light as England crashed out of Euro 2004.

Sadly, for England's captain and national icon, getting his excuses in first may not be enough to stop him being on the end of some serious accusations at the end of a tournament he must view as a massive personal disappointment.

Beckham's missed spot-kick, his third in succession for England, put them under instant pressure as they lost the quarter-final 6-5 on penalties to host Portugal.

And as he retreated disconsolately to receive the support of his England colleagues in the centre circle, Beckham could not escape the simple fact that it was a moment that summed up his tournament.

Of all the big players expected to deliver for England in Portugal, Beckham was the one who singularly failed to step forward.



Beckhams up there with the best when it comes to penalty taking

Waddle can't even say penalty - he pronounces it pelanty ffs!

waddle what a clown

Must say the beckham hype is well over the top, But that is possible one of the stupidest things i have heard in a while...Chris T-wattle is his name !!

waddle what a clown



You are the clown, yellow hair. We taught you that at Greasy Grassy river.

Waddle obviously knows his football.

Waddle likes to 'create' attention, more airtime for the useless pundit.

he's still bitter about not making it as a popstar

I'm old enough to remember Waddle in his prime and what a player he was,went to France and was a brilliant player who as per usual the english never appreciated.

agree with waddle, I could name 1000 beteer than beckham easy,

the £4.25M marseille paid for him in 1989 was a staggering amount in those days

^ and worth every penny.

waddle wouldn't get in my top 1000 football pundits ever, either.

Bit harsh, I have him at 787th

name me the 100 players elsjohn ?

why do the media give Waddle the time of day ?

he is northern, so he is virtually from the that criteria

Waddle was fishing (nap)

chris who?????

Surely Waddle meant not in his top 100.

Beckham never performed in the finals of any major tournament, never ever. Most overrated player ever to get 100 caps for his country that's for sure.

Never mind Waddle, remember what George Bets said about him (Beckham)? 'He cant kick the ball with his left foot, he cant head a ball, cant tackle and cant dribble, doesn't score many goals, but apart from that he's alright'

Best got it just about right.

Waddle - great player, thick wally when it comes to knowledge of football.

...and that Best quote is like saying 'Cech is a rubbish player as all he can do is play well in goal...'

i think a lot of the older pros have a negative view on Beckham, whether they thought he was over-rated or a limelight hogger. Shilton slagged him off a few years back. Waddle should have just said that he played with many better players than Beckham when he was in the England side and left it at that

If 1000 is easy, name 100. Go.

Seems to be a touch of the "green-eyed monster" with some ex pros where Becham is concerned I think.

spot on rodan

I think waddles comments referred to players from the 60s to today so whilst the 1000 maybe harsh 100 should be easy enough....

First time Ive heard Waddle gettin a mention in about 10 years and that was a mixed up with Hoddle.
