David Beckham didn't hesitate when asked to name his favourite member of the CBS Sports team as the Champions League returned.
The Manchester United and England legend made a shock appearance on the show to announce that he will be joining the CBS Sports team later this season.
Beckham will host a watchalong-style show titled 'Beckham and Friends', which will feature famous names from inside and outside of football.
The show will be on air for the Champions League final and the second legs of the semi-finals.

His appearance in the studio itself at the beginning of Tuesday's show left pundits Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards delighted, as they were reunited with their former international team-mate.
But their faces metaphorically fell when Beckham revealed who his favourite member of the team is.
He began: "I'm really glad to be on the show. I watch the show, and I admire how you guys bring it to life. I think that's what entices people to watch - it's exciting and it's different every time you watch a game.

"For me to be a part of this team - I'm not a pundit, I don't think I've ever been good enough to be a pundit - to be part of this team, it's special.
When Richards asked him to explicitly name his favourite, Beckham replied: "The Manchester United fan."
The United legend was, of course, referring to Kate Scott - the former Kate Abdo after she changed her name following her marriage to boxing trainer Malik Scott.

Henry, Carragher and Richards still have emotional ties to Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City, meaning that, as much as Beckham has respect for them, there was only one member of the team he could choose.
