He’s a typical ‘champagne socialist’, one of the key parts of being one is being a hypocrite.

Gary Neville can’t fool everyone. Well said John!!

If it was such a big thing, why are nations happy to play in a tournament held in Qatar? Players from your club are going over there and are being paid for it. Yet how many have spoken out against Qatar? How many psg players have spoken out about Qatar? If its OK for all of them to go and make money, why shouldn't Beckham? If you were in his position and were offered what he's been offered, would you accept? Of course you would and that would make you hypocrites too!

Eric doesnt need to lower himself to appearing on sky ... there are plenty of well loved football podcasts he could go on and reach a wide audience without all the BS of having to deal with the 'control media' system ...

Eric is one of few who has come out and said he’s not watching and boycotting World Cup .

If he did it, it'd only be because Gary asked him personally.

For us older people, yes but a lot of the internet gang wouldn't be that connected to the early 90s. Makes us feel so old but im 43

When has Beckham ever not been Mr Diplomatic? Trust me, whether it's in Qatar or Salford, this interview would've been the same. Gary might have asked a few tougher Qs but Becks would've found a way around them.

@@edtcreative I enjoyed the first 24 minutes, but the last 5 mins was cringeworthy. He’s already worth hundreds of millions, he really doesn’t need to be taking their cash, but oh well.

People have this bad narrative about Qatar and most of them never been there nor educated themselves about it .. they just hear and judge based on an agenda floating around .. better ask other British people working there 👍🏻 ..

It's disappointing but understandable. Obviously the agreement from Beckham's team was that Gary can't mention it

Great comment. He's a credit them to and all Englishmen actually

@@sidehustle8396 And now he's a credit to the Qatari leadership. For just a few dollars more. Deeply shameful - I've lost all respect for this guy.

@Leon Widdicombe But he IS an official ambassador for Qatar 22. And he's handsomely rewarded: 150M. The 10/90 ratio in this interview is probably because Gary Neville is a pretty vocal opponent to Qatar 22.

Get the vomit bag out quickly !!!.

He did arguably cost England that game (and therefore the tournament) with that totally unnecessary act of petulance. So, there's also that. Did some England fans (who weren't also Man United apologists) go too far in his condemnation? No doubt. However, Becks has never really been very apologetic about what he did to get that red card. Yes, he now admits that he regrets getting the card. But, he should have come forward straight away after England's exit from the tournament and publicly apologised for having being so reckless and he would probably have earned more forgiveness from a lot more of the public, much sooner. For the record, I wasn't one of those who condemned him afterwards. I just thought he was a bloody idiot for reacting the way he did in that moment. But I also thought he should have made more effort to genuinely apologise to the fans, and could understand the emotions of others, since he didn't take responsibility and apologise for his actions.

no, england let themselves down with how they treated those young players after the euros....unlike becks they got to the finals of the euros. banter was also included in the becks thing, but that racism shit was super ugly

I wonder which England players blanked him after the red card game? I don't know why they don't tell us after all it was 20 plus years ago.

@@temporaryuseraccount0012 😂😂😂😂😂 beckham got sent off.. he didn’t make those England players miss the penalties.. fucking pipe down. He never cost England the game. England fucked it for themselves.. just always looking to blame someone else. Had your chance on penalties but that’s backhams fault as well 😂😂😂😂😂😂🙃🙃🙃🙃

⁠@@temporaryuseraccount0012 I think the intelligent element of England supporters realised that whilst what Beckham did was silly, the reaction to a flick of the foot by Simeone was cynical, and the red card from Nielsen was ridiculous. To still think, a quarter of a century on, that a player should be expected to ‘publicly apologise’ for a split/second moment of minor silliness would be laughable if it weren’t so unpleasant.

All those dead builders .. fuck that shit can't stand any of those sports washing clubs ,psg ,City, Newcastle

Maybe from a players perspective it could be a lot worse.

It is

Fucking disgrace.

He's on £15 million per year for the next 10 years, he's getting paid by Sky to reminisce with Neville, he's getting chaffeured, wined & dined & 5 star hotel stays for free everytime he is in Qatar, & judging by this interview he does not have to be within 500 metresof any of those 'troubling for optics' migrant foreign worker labourer types.... Oh he's comfortable alright....

Gary is a monumental hypocrite

You’re right but what do you mean by ‘abuse’? I hope you’re not referring to and downplaying the abuse that Rashford, Sancho and Saka suffered after the Italy loss

It's only "abuse" when it's black players, huh? They'll never truly understand how hard it is to be criticised for your actions, not your identity. 🙄

Cos losing to Portugal twice in a row was? Yeah Southgate isn't the right man, but he still took us to a final. Beating Ecuador and Denmark 1-0, to then get turned over by Brazil and Portugal - lack of discipline - still lives with me right now. SGE was as trash as GS yet had a better side.

Same could've been said about brasil or South Africa but no one bothered then

This is Asia and Asia has had a World Cup before, Japan and South Korea ?? This is the first World Cup in the Middle East which Australia and New Zealand aren’t a part of. This is advertising for the World Cup Beckham is an ambassador . People have the wrong idea of the Middle East, yes there are human rights issues but so are there in the West. You can’t just ban this part of the world from the World Cup over “human rights”. Such a close minded take from too many westerners that have never been to this part of the world and have no idea what it’s like. We just had the last one in Russia ffs. Before that Brazil, Before that South Africa. It’s going to Mexico and The US after Qatar have they no human rights issues ? No Poverty ? Exploitation? Homophobia ? The Middle East is improving conditions for migrant workers and has been for many years. It’s a great part of the world surely this World Cup will show this

Stuart Pierce

2 people here can't spell Stuart Pearce properly. Lmao.

Guess I should qualify my comment by saying I don't remember Pearce playing for England, I started watching in 97 when his international career was basically over.

Above Keane, Ronaldo, Scholes, Giggs??!? Beckham was a great striker of the ball but he wasn't anywhere near those in ability/ influence

6500?

@@Julia-ns3kj You read that 6500 people died building the stadiums for the Qatar World Cup, and you’re asking what the issue is? Educate yourself the human rights issues they have.

What a redundant comment. Obviously we know he's going to biased. He's being criticised for taking the money and agreeing to be a mouthpiece for a horrible regime.

Yep, this is shameless whitewashing from Sky, Neville and Beckham. Even the shameless promotion of Qatar with scenic shots show show this is nothing less than an advert for a disgusting regime hosting a world cup that shouldn't be there. Beckham hardly needs the money, does he? His 'down-to-earth' persona has been completely smashed with this shameless money grab.

@@matthewh6719 It's not redundant if Gary failed to highlight this in the interview. Clearly Beckham has a conflict of interest which is worth pointing out in my opinion.

Kane? Rice? Saka?

@@adzthesaint Who are you dropping? It would be Beckham, Lampard, Gerrard or Rooney, so for me it would be no one, and that's as a huge Arsenal and Saka fan. Maybe play Saka out of position on the left, but that's it.

Sadly that midfield didn’t really work as well as it should have. Maybe having an unselfish ball winner who can play a tight pass - such as Rice - might have helped. We needed a strike partner for Rooney, why not Kane? And Saka would have been a great bench option, although I recall we weren’t blessed with pace in 2000’s. So he offers something different.

This is the only real comment on here, the rest is full of comments with pure deluded idolisation. Real questions or real topics never get spoken about.

Dunno how Sky Sports would have reacted to that. I doubt they would have liked it or broadcast it. Yes he went easier on his mate than he would have on a politician because this isn't Prime Minister's question time. If the English FA, UEFA, FIFA and the UK government aren't condemning Qatar either then it seems the footballing world is happy to ignore the obvious problems. Same as in Brazil and South Africa and Russia. Sad but true. What's even worse is that I know I'm still likely to watch an awful lot of the matches and in the moment forget all the suffering that is going around it.

Kind of funny since Beckham was the Southgate's captain in 2002 WC

That would have been 10k the pair

Wow I think it’s rare for someone to get into football at a later age. Most are indoctrinated at a young age, like me as a man united fan 😂 I’m sure he could be a good coach if he wanted that but I don’t think he’s interested. He owns “Inter Miami” an MLS team.

I don’t think he’d ever get into coaching or management. Which is a shame because he was such a technically gifted player, and those skills could be passed on to others easily. He won’t do it because he’s his own brand now and is unlikely to drop it all. He owns multiple businesses, he is the face for multiple brands, he’s the ambassador for several corporations and charities to name a few things. He won’t have the time.

So genuine that he campaigns for UNICEF yet takes millions to keep his gob shut on the ethical issues surrounding qatar. He's either thick in the head or immoral, and I wouldn't count out the prior.

Wouldnt be shocked if you saw the check he received

He has been paid £150m to be the ambassador for a World Cup which was won through proven corruption in a country with horrendous human rights record, and thousands of people died building the stadiums and has to be played in the middle of the season, but nobody seems to be mentioning it because it’s David Beckham

@@MichaelThomas-cs8ml Gary Neville, the ethical warrior against greed, nationalism and fighter for human rights, is against the super league, for governments to take away Chelsea FC from its owner but at the same time wants to have the Saudis at the table in Newcastle to civilize them and doesnt say a word about a WC where human rights are non existent, slave labor is used, and corruption is rampant.
