Brearley in his defence wasn't picked for his batting he was just a brilliant captain ask those under him

We agree.
Brears did speak well though and was a very astute Middlesex captain.

I used to watch Hectors House as a kid!

I agree about Bruno and Owen but Farrell was good!

Beckham for me, was way over rated. he was good but he was no Paul Scholes!

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

Beckham?

Played for the biggest clubs & signed by the best managers in the world.

Won

6X PL titles
1X Champions league
2X FA cup
1X La liga
1X Spanish cup
1X French championship.

Guess it was the other 10 players & Beckham had nothing to do with it, just signed for shirt sales.

Owen wasn’t overrated when he was young, he was one of the most deadly strikers in the world, but once injuries hit and his professionalism waned he was as good as useless and his big money moves later in his career were baffling.

Like I said, he was good but not as good as all that. Given the choice I would personally have preferred Scholes and when we're talking about Captains I would say that Bryan Robson was head and shoulders above Beckham.

Scholes was brilliant and would be towards the top of any underrated list. He’s probably the best English midfielder of the last 30 years.

Beckham was overhyped because of his dashing looks and celebrity lifestyle but as a player I wouldn’t say he necessarily was overrated or underrated. He was never really mentioned in the same breath as the greats of his day but everyone respected him for being a very good player, which he undoubtedly was.

Read somewhere that Mike Brearley allowed Ian Botham free rein in his game , therefore Beefy became one of the best all rounders of that generation under his captaincy .

Didn't he cause his own problems by trying to bulk up which caused a lot of hamstring issues? He was a very good striker but he relied a lot on pace, once that went, he went! As happens to many.

He most probably made more for the clubs in shirt sales than he earned in wages.

Aye, then there was the world cup when as a non-player he became England's cheerleader come official waistcoat wearing mannequin. He did not do anything , but liked nothing more than sitting on an empty England bench both before and after the game so he could become centerstage himself. His wife taught him a lot I guess?

You know? His attention seeking wife who walked out of the Paris Ritz Hotel into an ensemble of the worlds press/media covering the Diana death inquest, that was some coincidence hey!

I guess there was never enough attention for those two, indulged by press and media way more than that they both deserved.

Beckham?

I hope you're simply trying to wind a few people up on a Friday evening, my friend.

I dislike his public persona as much as most, but you cannot let that cloud your judgement of his ability on a football pitch. He was one of the greatest players of his generation, is widely thought to have been robbed of the Balon d'Or and I honestly doubt I'll see a wide midfielder as talented as him again in my lifetime.

Stop digging mun, Pencoed's post was absolutely spot on, yes Scholes was a more skillful player, but to dismiss Beckham as overatted is ludicrous.

Who can ever forget his free kick against Greece to take England to Korea
