Becks: “They’re never going to be Manchester United.”

As his LA Galaxy side prepares to face them this coming Sunday, David Beckham has moved to put Man City in their place by reminding them that there is only one team in Manchester.

Earlier this week Sir Alex acknowledged that Man City would be a threat in coming title races. Their financial clout along with the fact that they have European football next season means they will be able to attract a higher caliber of player but Beckham feels regardless of the players they bring in, they will never surpass Manchester United,

“They’ve brought in good players but they’re never going to be Manchester United.

“They might be a threat against teams this season but Manchester United have got the history and the silverware over the last 20 years.

“I’m a United fan so I’m always going to say that though.

“There’s only one team in Manchester. Manchester City may be a team to look at going forward.”
