David Beckham recently shared his thoughts on Manchester United’s misery as they are suffering just as much as the fans, after yet another battering from City via The Sun.
The Old Trafford legend stated that watching the Red Devils lose to their noisy neighbours has become a “hard watch” and admits he’s “fed up” with the team’s decline.
Beckham told CBSSportsGolazo: “Being an ex-player and a fan I would hope that they are hurting like we are as fans.
“And I’m sure they are, because they’re not going out there not wanting to win games.”
United were threased 3-0 at the Etihad in the latest derby, despite the club backing boss Ruben Amorim with the signings of Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.
The Portuguese coach replaced Erik ten Hag, who was axed after a disastrous first half of the 2024/25 campaign.
But Beckham said that it doesn’t matter who’s in charge and the players need to feel the same pain as the supporters do. He continued: “They’ve just come up against a team like Manchester City at Manchester City.
“And when you lose a game like that, you don’t go out for a while, because if you do, you’ll just bump into United fans.”
Beckham, who, unlike many of his former team-mate,s rarely speaks out about Manchester United’s problems, added: “It was a very hard watch. And like I said, as a United fan, I’m kinda fed up with watching these games and seeing what we’re seeing.”
