David Beckham spoke about the current state of his former club Manchester United during his appearance on CBS Sports.

On Tuesday night, Europe’s premier club competition, the UEFA Champions League returned with the likes of Liverpool, AC Milan, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich all in action.

Former Madrid and England midfielder Beckham joined the usual CBS Sports panel made up of Kate Abdo, Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards as a special guest.

Sitting in between Henry and Carragher, Beckham was asked if he was looking forward to the Champions League season.

The former midfielder replied: “I am, I always look forward to the Champions League season. I mean, I was lucky enough to play in the competition, win the competition and play in the competition with different teams.”

Presenter Abdo interrupted and asked: “Does it hurt you not seeing (Manchester) United in there?”

Beckham said: “It’s a little bit painful not seeing United, but they’re going through something, we’re too big too big to not to be back on this stage.

“So at some point, we have to be.”


Instead of the Champions League, United were in Carabao Cup third-round action on Tuesday night as they thrashed League One side Barnsley at Old Trafford.

Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho and Christian Eriksen all netted a brace while Antony scored once as United sealed a comfortable 7-0 victory to seal their place in the next round.

Speaking after the match, Erik ten Hag said: “First of all, it was a difficult start but, once we found the shape, it’s not so weird because it’s the first time this team is playing together.

“But once we found the shape and the patterns, we scored some great goals, starting with [Marcus] Rashford which was a brilliant goal but I’d also say some other goals were really good. We played with a lot of speed and we were very ruthless in front of the goal.”

He added: “The key was finding the shape and, of course, the right attitude. We were 100 per cent concentrated and we certainly played very good.

“I think it was enjoyable to watch and also the fans they liked it and appreciated it. You could feel again the good bond between the team and the fans and we gave the fans some nice goals.”
