00:00:00I wanted a place where we could escape.
00:00:21As soon as I'd get into the countryside, I'd normally get into my whole country get-up,
00:00:26which I'm not now.
00:00:27And I've got a stick and, you know, I walk around, sit out here, have a cup of coffee.
00:00:35I like this spot.
00:00:40My favorite view of the house.
00:00:44I can also see Victoria if she's naked in the top window.
00:00:51What is this, a pitch?
00:00:53Yep.
00:00:54How often do you still kick a soccer ball?
00:00:55Oh, sorry, football.
00:00:57Romeo comes out here all the time.
00:01:00He wants a match between my mates and his mates.
00:01:03He said, who would you invite?
00:01:04And I said, well, maybe I'd get Gary around, and he was like, OK.
00:01:12And I said, well, I could probably get Roberto Carlos to come over, and maybe Ronaldo, he
00:01:17would step over.
00:01:20Maybe Figo, maybe Zidane.
00:01:22And he'd be like, well, that's not fair.
00:01:25Why would you do that?
00:01:28And I'd be like, because I'm going to win.
00:01:30We're going to win.
00:01:33Not letting his mates beat us.
00:01:37David has a very small pitch in England, and he said, one day, I want to get Figo and Ronaldo
00:01:42to play my son and his friends, and maybe we could just arrange a game.
00:01:47Against his kids, I will kill him.
00:01:51The kids.
00:01:54We had a short honeymoon, and we ended up at Andrew Lloyd Webber's house in the south
00:02:23of France.
00:02:24I have no idea how we ended up there.
00:02:27We were meant to be there for 10 days, but the manager called me about five days in and
00:02:34said, I need you back in training.
00:02:38Ringing David up five days after his wedding, his classic Sir Alex Ferguson, get back here,
00:02:44you flash bastard.
00:02:49Sir Alex Ferguson had an uncanny habit of bringing you back down to earth.
00:02:59Did you think it was going to be difficult for him to keep his focus at that point?
00:03:03At that point, there was not a problem.
00:03:06But he was a stubborn lad.
00:03:09Welcome to the start of a new English football season, united, of course, the treble winners
00:03:15and the newly knighted Sir Alex Ferguson.
00:03:19The job he has this season is lifting his players to perform more heroics.
00:03:25He was stubborn in the sense that a lot of people are stubborn.
00:03:29And it's not a criticism, it's part of the makeup that they've got a determination about
00:03:36him and they've got a certain desire about him that they don't want people to change
00:03:42him.
00:03:43Beckham, of course, just finished his honeymoon.
00:03:47The honeymoon is over.
00:03:51OK, so what happened?
00:03:54I went to an event in London with Victoria.
00:04:00Went back to Victoria's house and Brooklyn has a really, really high temperature.
00:04:06And he wakes up throughout the night.
00:04:10I phoned in and just said, I'm not going to be at training today because Brooklyn is
00:04:15terribly ill.
00:04:18I don't think anyone believed me.
00:04:24Because I got pictured with a glass of champagne.
00:04:33Went to go into training the next day.
00:04:37And the boss came out and told me to go inside.
00:04:41So then, obviously, we had a bit of an argument on the pitch.
00:04:45This morning's headlines told of the hard line, according to Sir Alex.
00:04:50Parents in Manchester were divided on the David is doting dad issue.
00:04:54You stay at home and your kids come first.
00:04:57I think he should have supported his team.
00:04:59I had a hairdresser at the time called Tyler.
00:05:01I said to him, I'm going to cut my hair.
00:05:03And he was like, you sure?
00:05:04You really want to do that?
00:05:08Before the game, David has a hat on.
00:05:12And Sir Alex asks him to take his hat off.
00:05:17No.
00:05:19And he said, David, take the cap off.
00:05:21And I said, no.
00:05:23And he said, David, take the cap off.
00:05:25No.
00:05:27And he said, David, take the cap off.
00:05:29And I said, no.
00:05:31Stubbornness.
00:05:33I don't know how to say that well.
00:05:40And there's a new look about David Beckham.
00:05:44The flonder locks have gone.
00:05:46And the sight of the skinhead will take a bit of getting used to.
00:05:50Come on.
00:05:52You're asking for a bollocking.
00:05:54You're asking for trouble.
00:05:56He knew that would piss Sir Alex off.
00:06:03So why do it?
00:06:07That was his personality.
00:06:09Never bothered you?
00:06:10Never bothered me in the least.
00:06:12I used to think you'd better back it up at the weekend.
00:06:14David Beckham.
00:06:16He's always going to go for it.
00:06:18Oh, yes.
00:06:20A new look.
00:06:22Just an old freakish.
00:06:28Did it affect your relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson?
00:06:30No, not at all.
00:06:32Are you afraid of him?
00:06:34At times.
00:06:36OK, at the moment Alex is saying he doesn't want to talk to anybody.
00:06:38I don't think anybody's upset him.
00:06:40But we've asked for Beckham's hairdresser.
00:06:42I never did it to create attention.
00:06:44I'm not that person.
00:06:46I don't want to take it down.
00:06:48I don't want to take it down.
00:06:50When David Beckham shaved his head,
00:06:52I honestly thought a member of my family had died.
00:06:54Cos my phone went off.
00:06:56Panic in people's voices.
00:06:58And we haven't got it documented yet.
00:07:02You know, this is going to take ages.
00:07:10Jesus Christ.
00:07:12Beckham.
00:07:14It's 4-0.
00:07:16Literally, kids, I want to be David Beckham.
00:07:18I've shaved my head.
00:07:20And schools were like having to write it in.
00:07:22No shaving of head.
00:07:24I wanted to be like he was.
00:07:26Surely a job for David Beckham.
00:07:28Oh!
00:07:30Brilliant!
00:07:32David starts going from a boy...
00:07:34That was Beckham!
00:07:36..to a man.
00:07:38And it's only natural that you're going to start flexing
00:07:40And it's only natural that you're going to start flexing
00:07:42your muscles, right?
00:07:48And don't all kids...
00:07:50Well, maybe the party has started.
00:07:52..rebel
00:07:54against their parents?
00:08:00He's leaving school
00:08:02and he's going north. Now, what's going to happen?
00:08:04He'll move up to Manchester,
00:08:06finish his schooling off up there.
00:08:08I probably will miss it a little bit,
00:08:10but I'll be doing what I want to do, so...
00:08:12He was very homesick
00:08:14when he went to Manchester.
00:08:16Really homesick.
00:08:18He called me
00:08:20and said he had a toothache.
00:08:22Bet he just wanted to see us, I think.
00:08:24It wasn't really a toothache.
00:08:26I had a lot of toothaches, I must admit.
00:08:28I got homesick quite a lot.
00:08:30My mum was like,
00:08:32shall we go down? And my dad was like,
00:08:34absolutely not.
00:08:36Come on, Alex.
00:08:38Sir Alex was the closest thing
00:08:40other than his dad as a father.
00:08:42Simple as that. He's had
00:08:44this unbelievable effect on David's life.
00:08:46Really has.
00:08:48One game, the manager
00:08:50sat me literally the row
00:08:52behind the bench.
00:08:57This kid was in the dressing room,
00:08:59sitting next to us,
00:09:01and we look at him and think,
00:09:03well, he must be some player, this kid,
00:09:05because he's only 13, 14,
00:09:07and we haven't seen this before.
00:09:09Sir Alex wouldn't let anybody near the team.
00:09:11Let alone this young kid.
00:09:13Now we take the mickey out of him
00:09:15and we're like, are you here again?
00:09:17Are you here again?
00:09:19We were in the dressing room and they were sitting there
00:09:21and Bruce says,
00:09:23you'd better find out some player.
00:09:25The treatment we're giving you, you'd better find out some player.
00:09:27The way Sir Alex Ferguson
00:09:29was with me from a very young age
00:09:31was special.
00:09:33So it just shows you we had you remonitored
00:09:35right from an early age by your man.
00:09:37It was a family
00:09:39and that's why
00:09:41we had the success
00:09:43that we had.
00:09:47And then there's Britain's most famous
00:09:49photographed and gossiped about couple.
00:09:51Welcome please, the Beckhams.
00:09:59You've written this book,
00:10:01it's called Learning to Fly, which is your autobiography.
00:10:03David, what about you?
00:10:05You read this book, did you?
00:10:07I'm half way through it at the moment.
00:10:11We're lying in bed and he'll be reading the book
00:10:13and he'll just look at me like that.
00:10:15Oh God, what have I said?
00:10:17I was saying to David
00:10:19this morning,
00:10:21I barely recognise
00:10:23me and David from back
00:10:25then.
00:10:27You're doing that
00:10:29I know.
00:10:31We're going to look at this and cringe.
00:10:33They feel like two strange characters.
00:10:35Can I have a cup of tea please, princess?
00:10:37Or do you decide
00:10:39when to have a cup of tea?
00:10:41I'll tell you when you can have a cup of tea.
00:10:43I wear the trousers, don't forget.
00:10:45Okay, sorry princess.
00:10:47I was always much
00:10:49more outspoken than I am
00:10:51now.
00:10:53You touched upon it in your book
00:10:55about Sir Alex Ferguson.
00:10:58In four years of knowing him
00:11:00all he's ever said to you is hello.
00:11:02Are you getting the message now?
00:11:04I think that there are certain things in the book
00:11:06that I had to address.
00:11:08At the end of the day
00:11:10she's got a great relationship with
00:11:12Alex Ferguson, Sir Alex Ferguson.
00:11:14But do you have a pet nickname for him?
00:11:16Fergie.
00:11:24It's Manchester United's final home game.
00:11:28David Beckham.
00:11:30What a brilliant goal!
00:11:32Fantastic goal
00:11:34by David Beckham
00:11:36who milks the applause.
00:11:38I remember
00:11:40it being
00:11:42quite obvious
00:11:44that he wasn't keen
00:11:46on me.
00:11:48And at the time
00:11:50I didn't understand why.
00:11:52Well I think
00:11:54that it's the publicity machine
00:11:56on Victoria's side
00:12:00that's been interfering with his life.
00:12:02You can't have that.
00:12:04Your loyalty to this club
00:12:06is unbelievable.
00:12:10It was getting more
00:12:12tense.
00:12:14The string was wearing thin.
00:12:22He phoned me up
00:12:24and said
00:12:26yeah I've been picked for the England team dad.
00:12:28So I went oh that's great mate.
00:12:30He said and also I've been made captain.
00:12:32I went no.
00:12:34Will this be your proudest moment
00:12:36to lead the team to the World Cup?
00:12:38It will be.
00:12:40Fingers crossed. The proudest moment.
00:12:42I couldn't believe it
00:12:44in all honesty.
00:12:46England captain.
00:12:48Yeah.
00:12:50Big car.
00:12:52It was a
00:12:54controversial one.
00:12:56I know. Can you believe it?
00:12:58Two years ago
00:13:00I was the most hated man by English fans.
00:13:04And now I'm England captain.
00:13:10Thousands of football fans
00:13:12have begun arriving at Old Trafford for England's
00:13:14crucial World Cup qualifier against
00:13:16Greece. Expectations are running high.
00:13:18They want to see England
00:13:20onto the finals next year.
00:13:22Still got to play the match of course but the
00:13:24expectation here is very much of a win.
00:13:26I was still hated by the England
00:13:28fans. So every time
00:13:30I played in any game
00:13:32I got abused. I got shouted at.
00:13:36But it was the perfect situation.
00:13:38The most
00:13:40important England game
00:13:42that I played in for a long time.
00:13:44And just happened to be
00:13:46at Old Trafford.
00:13:50The sun is shining on this
00:13:52Old Trafford pitch and England are wearing
00:13:54all white this afternoon.
00:13:56Which is my favourite England kit to play in.
00:13:58So we'll hope for an angelic performance
00:14:00in one or two of them.
00:14:04With me captain
00:14:06for us to reach the World Cup.
00:14:08It was just too perfect.
00:14:11So something had to go wrong.
00:14:39Weird idea.
00:14:41Gary never wants the ball.
00:14:43He's got the ball.
00:14:45Back again to Beckham.
00:14:49This is all going the wrong way here for England
00:14:51at the moment.
00:14:53Being the captain was huge for him.
00:14:55But when you've got the armband on
00:14:57there's nowhere to hide.
00:14:59You're out there.
00:15:09A lot of makeslots with a huge prize waiting for them.
00:15:13A prestigious stadium.
00:15:15A lot of games.
00:15:16A lot of prizes.
00:15:17A lot of guests.
00:15:18With hundreds of millions of dollars
00:15:19on the 9th of every month.
00:15:20It's a dream come true.
00:15:22The chance is right in front of your eyes.
00:15:25Experience a better version of the game
00:15:27at E9.pro
00:15:39It was brutal.
00:15:43There was more that was expected of him.
00:15:45England need to draw
00:15:47to qualify for the World Cup.
00:15:49It will be absolute disaster and shame
00:15:51if they don't.
00:15:52And how could they
00:15:53got themselves into this position anyway?
00:15:58The armband
00:16:00made David grow.
00:16:03Make the leaders for Greece.
00:16:06Make the leaders for Greece.
00:16:08Beckham comes back to knock him off the ball
00:16:10and collected himself.
00:16:11Captain's example here.
00:16:12Who's he got to pass to?
00:16:13Nobody made the run.
00:16:14It was almost like
00:16:15I've got shit to prove here.
00:16:17To shut people up.
00:16:20Beckham desperate to win it back
00:16:22and he did.
00:16:23The team can't find a way
00:16:24but one player
00:16:26is relentlessly working
00:16:28to find a way.
00:16:29This is Beckham.
00:16:30He's working overtime as well.
00:16:33As horrific as
00:16:35some of the things
00:16:37that were said about me over the years
00:16:39I forgot everything.
00:16:47The last four years
00:16:48had been so tough
00:16:50that
00:16:52I think it took a toll on me
00:16:54that probably
00:16:58I never even knew myself.
00:17:02Beckham.
00:17:07Look at Beckham
00:17:08trying to win it back.
00:17:13He's the Nazi man.
00:17:15I just wanted to do something
00:17:17that could rectify
00:17:18what I did in 1998.
00:17:26He's back in the ring with
00:17:29all he's got to hope is that
00:17:30Beckham
00:17:31there is still hope.
00:17:32Still Beckham.
00:17:33Thomas Beckham is always hope.
00:17:35It's a break in what is probably
00:17:37the penultimate minute of the game.
00:17:50I just wanted to make everyone happy.
00:17:55If ever we needed
00:17:56a David Beckham special
00:17:58it's now.
00:18:00It's now.
00:18:04Beckham!
00:18:05Yes!
00:18:06Yes!
00:18:07He's done it!
00:18:14I remember saying to Becks
00:18:16thank you, fuck you, you're on our team.
00:18:18Yes!
00:18:29I've just seen one of the great performances
00:18:30of all time.
00:18:31The guy called Beckham.
00:18:33How could you?
00:18:36This will surely go down
00:18:37as his finest hour.
00:18:40It's been quite a transformation.
00:18:42Now, he's a national hero.
00:18:45I was expecting to walk into
00:18:47the training ground
00:18:50but the manager would be like
00:18:51unbelievable.
00:18:53And he literally
00:18:55didn't even mention the game.
00:18:58I was like, boss.
00:19:02Tonight we bring you the story
00:19:03of how David Beckham
00:19:06became a global phenomenon.
00:19:09Did you ever think
00:19:10when you were kicking the ball in the park
00:19:12that one day you might be being
00:19:13a model as well?
00:19:14No.
00:19:15All I ever wanted to do when I was young
00:19:16was play football.
00:19:17Is that still all you really want?
00:19:19Yeah.
00:19:21Yeah, it is.
00:19:26If you've had Sir Alex Ferguson
00:19:29in your life
00:19:31you're putting the team first.
00:19:34Big it up for
00:19:35none other than
00:19:37Victoria and David Beckham!
00:19:40So tell me, is your little boy
00:19:41starting to put old sentences together?
00:19:43He's saying little bits and pieces.
00:19:44Yeah.
00:19:45And what about Brooklyn?
00:19:51You might be an individual.
00:19:53You might have your own
00:19:54brand.
00:19:59But in here
00:20:00you're normal.
00:20:03I think you're Britain's
00:20:04highest paid
00:20:05sportsman, aren't you?
00:20:06Off the pitch.
00:20:08David is
00:20:10hacking him golden balls,
00:20:11you know.
00:20:14You can't all of a sudden
00:20:15just because you're earning more money
00:20:16or you're a bigger star
00:20:17or you're getting more headlines
00:20:18come in and think you're the big...
00:20:19That doesn't work.
00:20:20David Beckham
00:20:21is keeping his latest
00:20:22Barnet under wraps.
00:20:24Shall we talk about the haircut
00:20:25first and get it out of the way?
00:20:26If you want to, go on.
00:20:28Why did you decide to cut it?
00:20:30Erm, no particular reason.
00:20:32It's just me.
00:20:37It doesn't get much bigger
00:20:38than this next kick
00:20:39to the football.
00:20:44David Beckham
00:20:45giving him the lead
00:20:46against Argentina.
00:21:03Carlos, anytime you want
00:21:04to start over...
00:21:06No, I'm going to try to talk
00:21:07as natural as...
00:21:08Yeah.
00:21:09As much natural as possible.
00:21:10Exactly.
00:21:11If you want to swear
00:21:13When I arrived to Manchester
00:21:15I was not sure
00:21:16if Alex Ferguson
00:21:17invited me
00:21:18because I was a coach
00:21:19or because I was able
00:21:20to communicate
00:21:21in three languages.
00:21:26In the club we have
00:21:27Spanish, French, Italian,
00:21:28Portuguese and English
00:21:29so it was a mess.
00:21:31But he gave me the benefit
00:21:33that he invited me
00:21:35because of my coaching skills.
00:21:38Carlos Kuras
00:21:39who I knew nothing about
00:21:41knew nothing of
00:21:42didn't understand
00:21:43how he came in
00:21:45but he did.
00:21:48Carlos was very strong
00:21:49and stern
00:21:50really like school teacher-ish.
00:21:52Call people
00:21:53and get surnames
00:21:54like Ferdinand
00:21:56bring the ball.
00:21:58Hello?
00:22:01Carlos could rub people
00:22:02up the wrong way
00:22:03just by his manner.
00:22:05It's just a different way
00:22:06of doing it
00:22:07than we've been used to.
00:22:09I never got on with him.
00:22:11I love them.
00:22:12I love Carlos.
00:22:20That season
00:22:23our observations
00:22:24and analysis
00:22:25that we start to feel
00:22:27that David's performance
00:22:28was in a declining process.
00:22:38I was mad
00:22:39with that situation.
00:22:40What's going on?
00:22:43All of a sudden
00:22:44one story come out.
00:22:49The famous advertising
00:22:51of gladiators.
00:22:53Apparently
00:22:54to perform those advertising
00:22:55a couple of players
00:22:56developed the upper body
00:22:58and if one player
00:23:00developed
00:23:013, 4 or 5 kilos more
00:23:02in the upper body
00:23:04without the right coordination
00:23:09they can affect
00:23:10the performance
00:23:11as a football player.
00:23:16It was clear
00:23:17that it was not the same David.
00:23:21See, there's the problem.
00:23:24I would never
00:23:25ever
00:23:26have put myself
00:23:27professionally
00:23:28in a position
00:23:30that changed
00:23:31the way I played.
00:23:35In 2003
00:23:36guys like David
00:23:37they're not only
00:23:38playing football
00:23:39they're companies.
00:23:45It is a fight
00:23:46between things
00:23:47inside the pitch
00:23:49and outside the pitch.
00:23:52In that period
00:23:53the business
00:23:54jumped
00:23:55inside the pitch.
00:24:02Eventually
00:24:04exported
00:24:05and I think that
00:24:06the culmination
00:24:07of all that was
00:24:08the boot room incident.
00:24:15So let's just talk
00:24:16about the boot thing.
00:24:19Can you just set that up
00:24:20a little bit?
00:24:28Were you there?
00:24:31Yeah, of course I was.
00:24:33It's my boots.
00:24:37So this is it, huh?
00:24:39This is where all the
00:24:41so-called dreams are made.
00:24:46From what I remember
00:24:48we lost against Arsenal.
00:24:50A very stern look
00:24:51through Alec Ferguson
00:24:52and no wonder.
00:24:53We walked in
00:24:54the changing room
00:24:55and the boss is fuming
00:24:56I can see by his face
00:24:57and when you see
00:24:58the boss's face like this
00:24:59you don't want to be
00:25:00anywhere near him.
00:25:01Show me his face.
00:25:02Oh no, it's a face
00:25:03that no one could
00:25:04do.
00:25:05Trust me.
00:25:06And when you lose
00:25:07you take your boots off
00:25:08and you kick him off
00:25:09and you're sat there
00:25:10waiting for the gaffer
00:25:11to talk.
00:25:12They just set the kit
00:25:13off on the floor.
00:25:14Joe Mug here
00:25:15used to come along
00:25:16and pick it up
00:25:18but Sir Alec
00:25:19was doing his debrief
00:25:20you know
00:25:21you've done this wrong
00:25:22you've fucking well
00:25:23done that wrong.
00:25:25And he starts
00:25:26heffing and blinding
00:25:27on David.
00:25:28David, this about
00:25:29this goal
00:25:30you didn't follow
00:25:31your run out
00:25:32and I was
00:25:33and I went back
00:25:34at the boss
00:25:35and said no.
00:25:36Look at the video
00:25:37David says
00:25:38Sir Alec
00:25:39I don't need a
00:25:40fucking video
00:25:41I've got my eyes
00:25:42I remember.
00:25:43And then I swore
00:25:44I said the F word
00:25:45and then I saw him
00:25:46change
00:25:47and I was like
00:25:48shit
00:25:49I really shouldn't
00:25:50have said that.
00:25:51We all did it once.
00:25:53I think every player
00:25:54that was with Sir Alec
00:25:55for a long time
00:25:56maybe told him
00:25:57to fuck off once
00:25:58and you didn't
00:25:59do it again.
00:26:01I think I said
00:26:02the F word
00:26:03too many times
00:26:04and then he
00:26:06comes flying across
00:26:07from here
00:26:08in a rage
00:26:09and he just
00:26:10kicked out at these
00:26:11load of clothes
00:26:12and the boot shot up
00:26:13zzz
00:26:14zzz
00:26:15I could just see
00:26:16my boot flying.
00:26:18I kicked the boot
00:26:19on the head
00:26:20I mean honestly
00:26:21I was an absolute freak.
00:26:22And just
00:26:23clicked David
00:26:24above the eye.
00:26:25He couldn't do it again
00:26:26if he'd have tried.
00:26:28And I've gone
00:26:29like that
00:26:30and then I've gone
00:26:31like that
00:26:32and then I've gone
00:26:33like that.
00:26:34So what happened?
00:26:35Someone had to hold you back?
00:26:36Yeah.
00:26:37You went at him?
00:26:38Yeah.
00:26:42The boss was absolutely
00:26:43gutted
00:26:45because he's not
00:26:46a man like that.
00:26:47It was only a nick.
00:26:48It wasn't worth a stitch.
00:26:55Didn't look pretty.
00:26:57But then there was
00:26:58this picture of
00:26:59stitches and all that
00:27:00Well yeah.
00:27:02I'm not going to talk about that.
00:27:04Okay.
00:27:06The only thing I'll say about it
00:27:07I think that was stage manage.
00:27:09And like I say
00:27:10it wasn't even worth a stitch.
00:27:20Regarding Saturday's game
00:27:23first and foremost
00:27:25I have to stress this
00:27:26and I've stressed this
00:27:27over my 29 years as a coach
00:27:29Whatever happens in the dressing room
00:27:30is psychoscience.
00:27:37I remember a player
00:27:38coming up to me that week
00:27:39and saying
00:27:40the boss has turned around
00:27:41to the doctor
00:27:42and said he's
00:27:43he's been making it worse.
00:27:44And I didn't
00:27:45I wasn't.
00:27:46I wasn't.
00:27:48Contrary to
00:27:49contrary to all the protocol
00:27:50David did not have
00:27:51two stitches put in his head
00:27:52he had no stitches.
00:27:54So it was a graze
00:27:56and we move on.
00:27:58And that's all the rest
00:27:59of it said for it.
00:28:05Okay it's the Champions League
00:28:06quarter final between
00:28:07two of the greats
00:28:08of European football
00:28:09Manchester United
00:28:10and Real Madrid
00:28:11I think we're in for
00:28:12a fascinating evening.
00:28:22Pay attention
00:28:23because wherever you go
00:28:24this is what everybody
00:28:25will be talking about
00:28:26tomorrow.
00:28:27It's showtime.
00:28:32Real Madrid has always
00:28:33been one of those clubs
00:28:34that is
00:28:35every kid's
00:28:37dream to play for.
00:28:38It's almost a fantasy.
00:28:42And a bullish
00:28:43for Alec Ferguson
00:28:44has been
00:28:45intent on assuring us
00:28:46that Real are
00:28:47from the same planet
00:28:48as his players.
00:28:51It excited me
00:28:52to see them walk
00:28:53from the changing room
00:28:54because I'm a fan.
00:28:56The cast list
00:28:57is as follows.
00:28:59So I was desperate
00:29:00to get on the field.
00:29:04So what happened?
00:29:05Everywhere you look
00:29:06a headline waiting
00:29:07to be made.
00:29:08Before the game
00:29:09they managed to shout
00:29:10David
00:29:11can have a word.
00:29:12They spoke for a little while
00:29:13and David
00:29:14left.
00:29:15It's like
00:29:16and I knew something
00:29:17was up.
00:29:18Let's look straight away
00:29:19at the Manchester United
00:29:20XI because there's a shock
00:29:21Beckham's not playing.
00:29:23Do you remember
00:29:24how you felt?
00:29:25Furious.
00:29:32It's a big surprise.
00:29:33Almost disbelief.
00:29:39David's
00:29:40boiling
00:29:41mad.
00:29:43Because
00:29:44he's never been
00:29:45left out before.
00:29:53I felt I
00:29:55had a place
00:29:56to play in that position.
00:29:58I was quicker than David
00:29:59that's for sure.
00:30:12Unfortunately
00:30:13that gentleman
00:30:14called
00:30:15Ronaldo
00:30:16killers.
00:30:22Ronaldo
00:30:23shots.
00:30:26Heartbreaker.
00:30:29Ronaldo
00:30:30with a blow
00:30:31to the heart
00:30:32of Manchester United's
00:30:33hopes.
00:30:34They are flash.
00:30:35It is difficult to be
00:30:36the most famous institution
00:30:37in world football
00:30:38and be humble about it.
00:30:39They belong in the big time
00:30:40and they know it.
00:30:42You want me to talk
00:30:43about Perez?
00:30:44Yeah, yeah.
00:30:45That'd be great.
00:30:48OK, Florentino Perez
00:30:49is
00:30:50a piece
00:30:51of work.
00:30:54Florentino Perez
00:30:55simultaneously ran
00:30:56this big
00:30:57multinational company
00:30:58and he ran
00:30:59Real Madrid
00:31:00the biggest
00:31:01football club
00:31:02in the world.
00:31:03His construction business
00:31:04was the prose
00:31:05of his life.
00:31:06Real Madrid
00:31:07was the poetry
00:31:08of his life.
00:31:09Just
00:31:10I'll say hello.
00:31:15In the construction
00:31:16company
00:31:17he would do everything
00:31:18in a very measured
00:31:19way.
00:31:20In Real Madrid
00:31:21he allowed himself
00:31:22to let his hair down
00:31:24like a wild
00:31:25kid.
00:31:33He is bold
00:31:34to the point
00:31:35of shameless.
00:31:44And so his thinking
00:31:45was incredibly simplistic.
00:31:48We buy the best players
00:31:49we'll win.
00:31:51And at the same time
00:31:53to bring in money.
00:32:10He also has a very keen
00:32:11interest
00:32:12in works of art.
00:32:15So what were the most
00:32:16beautiful works of art
00:32:17in the football world
00:32:18at that time?
00:32:23Luis Figo
00:32:24elegance itself.
00:32:26We got him
00:32:27he's up on the wall.
00:32:30Who else is there?
00:32:31Zidane.
00:32:34The Baryshnikov
00:32:35of football.
00:32:37Zidane's up on the wall.
00:32:40So who's next?
00:32:41Ronaldo
00:32:42the Brazilian.
00:32:46The greatest living
00:32:47football scorer
00:32:48at that time.
00:32:50The next work of art
00:32:51was Roberto Carlos
00:32:52the Brazilian.
00:32:53Fantastic.
00:32:56They were arguably
00:32:57the greatest players
00:32:58in the world, right?
00:33:01They were not
00:33:02arguably
00:33:04the best players
00:33:05in the world.
00:33:06They were the best
00:33:07players in the world.
00:33:08There was no debate.
00:33:14So who was left?
00:33:16Michelangelo's David.
00:33:19I remember seeing him
00:33:20as he came on.
00:33:27There seemed to be
00:33:28an extra
00:33:29fire in his belly.
00:33:43Real Madrid
00:33:44and David Beckham
00:33:45were at that time
00:33:46in 2003
00:33:47the two biggest brands
00:33:48in football.
00:33:49Therefore there was
00:33:50a certain
00:33:51commercial financial
00:33:52logic in a fusion
00:33:53of these two
00:33:54enormous
00:33:55global brands.
00:34:15Real Madrid
00:34:16they have broken
00:34:17the hearts
00:34:18of Manchester United.
00:34:21A mesmeric
00:34:22memorable game
00:34:24full of stories.
00:34:28Zidane
00:34:29came up to me
00:34:37and he doesn't
00:34:38speak so much
00:34:39English
00:34:40Zizou
00:34:41and he doesn't
00:34:42really say too much
00:34:43ever.
00:34:53He came up to me
00:34:54shook hands
00:34:55and he went
00:34:56you come to Madrid?
00:35:02And I was like
00:35:03did Zizou
00:35:04just say that?
00:35:14I love that moment.
00:35:17It doesn't get
00:35:18any better than that.
00:35:21But
00:35:22I had no interest.
00:35:24Manchester United
00:35:25was my team.
00:35:27It's the only club
00:35:28I ever wanted
00:35:29to play for.
00:35:31But I also
00:35:32loved Real Madrid.
00:35:44What does Alec Ferguson
00:35:45do now?
00:35:56I know
00:35:57your club
00:35:58you never stand still
00:35:59you're always looking forward.
00:36:00Do you feel
00:36:01this summer that you have
00:36:02got to evolve
00:36:03the side?
00:36:04It won't be
00:36:05anything
00:36:06drastic
00:36:07or anything like that.
00:36:08No one will even
00:36:09know the players are here.
00:36:10And I just
00:36:11need to fine tune things.
00:36:13Alex, thanks.
00:36:19Alex Ferguson
00:36:21knocked the door
00:36:23come and sit
00:36:24in front of me
00:36:25and he said done.
00:36:27David is leaving us.
00:36:31It was just like that.
00:36:32Ice
00:36:33done.
00:36:35And he
00:36:36started to talk about
00:36:38another thing.
00:36:43I have the pleasure
00:36:44to announce
00:36:46that
00:36:47Manchester United
00:36:48has decided
00:36:50to announce
00:36:52the agreement
00:36:53for the transfer
00:36:54of David Beckham
00:36:56to FC Barcelona.
00:37:00What?
00:37:07How is that possible?
00:37:08You're talking about
00:37:09Beckham then?
00:37:10Yes.
00:37:11I can't believe it.
00:37:13It's the worst
00:37:14bit
00:37:15the worst
00:37:16very worst
00:37:17bit of management
00:37:18I've ever seen.
00:37:21I called the club
00:37:23and I said
00:37:24can I speak to the boss?
00:37:27And they said no.
00:37:28He doesn't want to talk to you.
00:37:29And I said
00:37:31please just let me speak
00:37:32to the boss.
00:37:33I need to know
00:37:34that this is really
00:37:35what he wants.
00:37:38And I've pleaded
00:37:39to not go.
00:37:40But why didn't you?
00:37:42Because I couldn't
00:37:43get in contact
00:37:44with the boss.
00:37:46I think the relationship
00:37:47was that
00:37:48it was a stalemate anyway.
00:37:49There was not going to be
00:37:50any point of me
00:37:51saying to David
00:37:52you know I'm selling you.
00:37:54And he said why?
00:37:57I don't think
00:37:58I'd have changed his mind.
00:37:59Well I don't know.
00:38:01I don't know.
00:38:02The decision was made
00:38:03it's better
00:38:04he went
00:38:05you know
00:38:06or he didn't need to go
00:38:07he could have stayed
00:38:08if he wanted.
00:38:09But I think
00:38:10he knew it was
00:38:11the right time.
00:38:12But did I ever want
00:38:13to leave Man United?
00:38:14Of course not.
00:38:15Never.
00:38:21It was my home.
00:38:23My relationship
00:38:24with the boss
00:38:25was always special.
00:38:29We had our moments
00:38:30but
00:38:31I still loved him.
00:38:33You're never going to be
00:38:34in love with the players
00:38:35all your life.
00:38:36Never.
00:38:37It's never going to be that way
00:38:38because
00:38:40you're picking a player
00:38:42because he's performing
00:38:43in the football field
00:38:44you know
00:38:45not because
00:38:46your relationship
00:38:47with him off the field.
00:38:51I've never said this but
00:38:53I'm glad I didn't
00:38:54speak to him
00:38:55because I think
00:38:56it would have broken
00:38:57my heart.
00:38:59But that was it
00:39:00for me.
00:39:01That was it
00:39:02that was
00:39:04that was it
00:39:05for
00:39:06that was it
00:39:07at United
00:39:09that was it.
00:39:22Yeah he was
00:39:24like literally
00:39:25heartbroken
00:39:26like beyond
00:39:27like
00:39:28yeah.
00:39:30Since the age of 15
00:39:31you know
00:39:33all he knew
00:39:34was Manchester United.
00:39:36You know and then
00:39:37all of a sudden
00:39:38it's like you know
00:39:41and he's probably
00:39:42never really got over it.
00:39:46He's probably
00:39:47never really got over it.
00:39:52We were brothers.
00:39:55It was a family.
00:39:58And you're never
00:39:59going to leave.
00:40:01And me and him
00:40:02were down that raft
00:40:03and
00:40:04me and him were down
00:40:05that right hand side.
00:40:10Because we're all there
00:40:11thinking we're going to
00:40:12play for United forever.
00:40:18I had to make a decision.
00:40:25So I said
00:40:26if you want me to leave
00:40:29and I don't want to leave
00:40:30but if you want me to leave
00:40:32I want to move to
00:40:34I want to move to the club
00:40:35that I want to move to.
00:40:36If I'm being pushed out
00:40:37of Manchester United
00:40:38this is where I want to go.
00:40:45I remember being
00:40:46stood in my kitchen
00:40:49phone rings
00:40:50Florentino comes on
00:40:52said David
00:40:53would you like to play
00:40:54for Real Madrid?
00:40:55Yes.
00:40:57No problem.
00:40:58Done.
00:41:02Respecting
00:41:03Manchester United
00:41:04as I said before
00:41:05he was a player
00:41:06born to play
00:41:07for Real Madrid.
00:41:31The reality
00:41:32is we moved to Spain.
00:41:34Like that.
00:42:02And I remember
00:42:03being the president
00:42:04in his office
00:42:05looked out
00:42:06over these
00:42:07tower blocks
00:42:08and he was like
00:42:09those are the Galacticos
00:42:11you've got Figo
00:42:12you've got Ronaldo
00:42:13you've got Zidane
00:42:15said look
00:42:16that one's yours.
00:42:17And I was like
00:42:18OK
00:42:19I like that.
00:42:26People already
00:42:27had a preconception
00:42:28of what was going to
00:42:29happen
00:42:30a preconception
00:42:31of me
00:42:32you know
00:42:33I'm married to a
00:42:34Spice Girl
00:42:35you know
00:42:36all the circus around
00:42:37so I wanted
00:42:38to go in
00:42:39so low key
00:42:40just me.
00:42:49The day
00:42:50that David Beckham
00:42:51signed for Real Madrid
00:42:52is a day
00:42:53unmatched
00:42:57in the signing
00:42:58of any players
00:42:59anywhere
00:43:01in history.
00:43:08He arrives
00:43:09in the city
00:43:10as if he were
00:43:11the president
00:43:12of the United States.
00:43:29This was crazy right?
00:43:31Yeah.
00:43:43This was the
00:43:44biggest ticket
00:43:45in town.
00:43:46Anybody
00:43:47who was anybody
00:43:48in Spain
00:43:49wanted to be
00:43:50invited.
00:43:53The politicians
00:43:55the judges
00:43:56all the top
00:43:57businessmen
00:43:59all brought
00:44:00their good lady
00:44:01wives along
00:44:02because otherwise
00:44:03they'd have had
00:44:04hell in their marriages
00:44:05for the rest of their lives
00:44:06if they hadn't brought
00:44:07them along
00:44:08for the big event.
00:44:29David

00:44:41David
00:44:42David
00:44:43David
00:44:44David
00:44:45David
00:44:49Gracias
00:44:50Ladies and gentlemen
00:44:53I've always
00:44:54loved
00:44:55football
00:44:56Of course I love my family, but football is everything to me.
00:45:10Gracias. A la Madrid.
00:45:20I remember turning around to Victoria and I'm not sure how happy Victoria was about it.
00:45:27But I said to her, we have to look at this like this is forever.
00:45:35Less than ideal.
00:45:48Bienvenido a Madrid. Welcome to Madrid, Dr. Beckham.
00:45:54When I did the interview with him, he arrived barefooted. I don't know what that was about.
00:45:59Your Spanish, are you going to work at it? Are you going to make an effort?
00:46:02Definitely. It's something that I'm already trying to learn already.
00:46:05Having interviewed a lot of famous people, you see that so many of them are actually complete pricks.
00:46:10Your kids, Brooklyn in particular, I mean he'll be bilingual before you know it.
00:46:14He can actually say hola and adios.
00:46:17It was a curious contrast between how big and famous David Beckham was
00:46:23and how awkward he was talking in public.
00:46:30It's an amazing experience that I'm stepping into now.
00:46:35It's going to be a great life for me over here and my family.
00:46:38And my family is definitely going to enjoy living here.
00:46:46I remember before my first training session, I'm there before everyone.
00:46:55So I was in the changing room on my own.
00:47:01Sat there just waiting, like sweating. I was so nervous.
00:47:08And Vigo walks in.
00:47:12Good afternoon.
00:47:13Good afternoon, Luis. Right here.
00:47:15Shakes my hand. Welcome.
00:47:17Roberto.
00:47:18Roberto Carlos walks in, shakes my hand.
00:47:21Muy bien, how are you?
00:47:23Ronaldo walks in.
00:47:26I don't think I've ever been as nervous.
00:47:28Did you throw up?
00:47:29No, I didn't throw up, but...
00:47:32Y cuando hemos visto la presentación de Rubio, guapísimo,
00:47:37que llegaba al equipo, beautiful guy.
00:47:43Los cortes de pelo, pues, intentaba todo el mundo hacerlos.
00:47:48Pero con mi pelo más rizado, más complicado de copiar un poco.
00:47:58I remember we played this small-sided game.
00:48:01Ronaldo was about to score.
00:48:03So I slid.
00:48:05And as I slid, he just put his foot on the ball.
00:48:08And he watched me go past like that.
00:48:16OK, this is the level that I have to get to.
00:48:20Nice, please.
00:48:22But, of course, all the guys talking...
00:48:25What do you think?
00:48:26I don't know.
00:48:27To be honest, you know, really unpredictable.
00:48:29I don't know if this guy is going to suit to us.
00:48:33All the things around him, you know.
00:48:36The wife.
00:48:39Friends, you know, talking about him.
00:48:42I don't know.
00:48:44I don't know.
00:48:46I don't know.
00:48:48I don't know.
00:48:49I don't know.
00:48:51I bring bad things into the dressing room.
00:48:55But the main thing is, what is he going to play?
00:48:57Because Figo is on the right.
00:49:01Figo is one of the best right mids, you know, in the world, by far.
00:49:08When it was coming out that probably David came,
00:49:13everyone started to talk,
00:49:14now he comes to play in your position, blah, blah, blah.
00:49:18Will be a fight, competition between Luis and David for the position, blah, blah, blah.
00:49:24I was not scared at all.
00:49:28Figo was in the position where I played.
00:49:32I didn't want to turn around to Figo and say,
00:49:35I'm here now.
00:49:37What are you going to play?
00:49:38You know, this is Figo.
00:49:42I think in that time was not really what the team needs.
00:49:49Why do you think Perez brought him in though?
00:49:52I don't know.
00:49:53I don't know.
00:49:54You have to ask the president.
00:50:00David Beckham will be in the Far East with his new club Real Madrid,
00:50:04who no doubt will be cashing in on their new signing.
00:50:06They get half the profits of taking the Beckham brand on the road.
00:50:11One of the most lucrative promotional trips ever.
00:50:19I've been on tours with United.
00:50:24This was a whole different level.
00:50:37I remember we arrived to this hotel and there were 10,000 people at 4 a.m.
00:50:41At 4 a.m.
00:50:48So that was happening because of Beckham.
00:50:53He brought that kind of craziness.
00:50:56What we thought was that a rock band was arriving to play football.
00:51:07100% football.
00:51:13They are no longer just football fans.
00:51:16They are women's fans.
00:51:20Long live Beckham!
00:51:22Long live Beckham!
00:51:24There were 40 Beckham commercials in the video.
00:51:29And one of mine.
00:51:32This is the first time that we go worldwide.
00:51:36Because of one player.
00:51:40We were so comfortable in our houses in Spain.
00:51:46Now suddenly we're 30 days out of our families.
00:51:49So for us it was a pain in the ass.
00:51:56He said, David, we are working double because of you.
00:52:20It is done with this advertising machine.
00:52:24In these Asian countries, Beckham is adored more than for his football achievements.
00:52:35The Sun newspaper sent reporters all over the world to see if they could find someone who had not heard of David Beckham.
00:52:50Eventually, they found the person or they said they did.
00:52:59And the one man in the world who does not know David Beckham, a shepherd in Chad.
00:53:06I, on the other hand, more often than not, I was always the villain.
00:53:11We have to talk about Spain because obviously we're here.
00:53:14Are you happy here?
00:53:15I am, you know, it's great.
00:53:16David absolutely loves it.
00:53:17David even answers the phone.
00:53:18I love that.
00:53:20I remember doing an interview once for Spanish Vogue.
00:53:22I did the cover of Spanish Vogue and in the interview they reported that I hate Spain because Spain smells of garlic.
00:53:29Don't say that.
00:53:37Now, if you want to offend the Spanish, question the quality of their food.
00:53:45This was a grievous offence.
00:53:59In a lot of the reports, it was, oh, she hates Spain, oh, she hates Madrid.
00:54:10It was never about Spain.
00:54:12We had a family that we had to really think about.
00:54:15I had two children, Brooklyn and Romeo.
00:54:19And this is what nobody seemed to take into consideration when I was getting criticised for not being in Spain right from the beginning.
00:54:25A kid has to go to school.
00:54:27I knew I couldn't move to Spain until I had a school for Brooklyn.
00:54:32I was doing Monday to Friday in London and then jumping on a plane to Spain.
00:54:39But everything I did was fabricated, taken out of context.
00:54:51But it was never about Spain.
00:54:58I was in Madrid.
00:55:00I was in Madrid.
00:55:02I was in Madrid.
00:55:04I was in Madrid.
00:55:06I was in Madrid.
00:55:08He has been Real Madrid's new coach since this afternoon when he was introduced to the stadium in Madrid.
00:55:13I want to thank him for this immense honour, this opportunity to coach Real Madrid.
00:55:25When the invitation of Real Madrid came to me, it was something amazing because I was not even dreaming that Real Madrid was knocking on my door.
00:55:35It's the club with the biggest football club in the world.
00:55:42I was shocked.
00:55:44I was shocked when I heard.
00:55:53Now I start my Real Madrid career knowing that I'm playing for a manager that didn't want me in my last team.
00:56:05David Beckham.
00:56:27So that first game, it was a different pressure.
00:56:36I had that sick feeling in my stomach.
00:56:45All the fans are crazy, you know.
00:56:49For them, Real Madrid is one of the most important things in their life.
00:56:56It's like a religion.
00:56:58Madrid always has to win.
00:57:01There was a pressure to beat Madrid. It was crazy.
00:57:08It was the same as the previous moments.
00:57:12You want to be confident, but everything plays with your mind.
00:57:19You want to be confident, but everything plays with your mind.
00:57:25It makes you a little nervous, insecure.
00:57:56But everybody's looking to see what David Beckham can do.
00:58:00I'm not going to be good enough.
00:58:04That's the moment where you're going to say,
00:58:06OK, now I'm going to judge you guys.
00:58:08I'm going to see you.
00:58:09I'm going to see the way you are and everything, OK?
00:58:19The football papers here,
00:58:20coming up to eight pages of stories about that man.
00:58:23David Beckham.
00:58:25Where is he going to fit into this team?
00:58:28What about your position?
00:58:31I had no idea where I was going to play.
00:58:37Two players from the same position.
00:58:40You have a problem.
00:58:46Quiroz put him to play more behind me,
00:58:48so he has to run more for me.
00:58:53LAUGHTER
00:58:58Seagull.
00:59:01Here's David Beckham.
00:59:03Beckham had to do something he'd never done before,
00:59:06for England or Manchester United,
00:59:08to sort of play a bit further back.
00:59:11David Beckham.
00:59:14Well, look, I mean, I know we're making a film about David Beckham
00:59:18and we're singing his praises, but I mean...
00:59:20David Beckham.
00:59:24He's going to do it.
00:59:26He's given it back to Eto'o!
00:59:29Yes!
00:59:31Samuel Eto'o and Mallorca are in front,
00:59:35and they deserve it.
00:59:37Absolutely.
00:59:39David Beckham has been neither here nor there.
00:59:43Real Madrid rattled.
00:59:45And what a double change.
00:59:49It's David Beckham.
00:59:53He's going to come off.
00:59:56Well, it's a strange one, so early in the second half,
00:59:58obviously the coach, Carlos Quiroz,
01:00:00feels that they need to do something about it now.
01:00:03It takes time to settle in, Rome was not built in a day.
01:00:07And it's all over.
01:00:08And Mallorca triumph.
01:00:24What they don't do is accumulate old age.
01:00:32When I played for Manchester United,
01:00:34even when I lost games, even when I wasn't playing well...
01:00:40..I knew that I was going home to my family every night.
01:00:48Whereas I wasn't going home to my family in Madrid.
01:00:54HE SPEAKS SPANISH
01:00:57And that was difficult to not have my family.
01:01:02Yeah, I love this song.
01:01:04This is David's favourite.
01:01:05Oh, yeah? Yeah.
01:01:07She just didn't want to sit at home.
01:01:09Just didn't want to become a footballer's wife.
01:01:12No, no, no, no, no.
01:01:14So let's go down to a rep with the diminished.
01:01:16And that's what I loved about her from day one.
01:01:24I remember being upset on the phone to Victoria
01:01:28because I felt lonely.
01:01:36David was hurting.
01:01:38So we got, like, a group of friends, you know,
01:01:42to surround David, to make him feel better.
01:01:46HE SPEAKS SPANISH
01:01:59But I still remember one day,
01:02:01I see David and Roberto Carlos eating in the same table.
01:02:06I thought, how can one guy that doesn't speak English
01:02:10and another one that doesn't speak Portuguese or Spanish
01:02:13being two hours together laughing?
01:02:17HE SPEAKS SPANISH
01:02:30I think after that, he started to relax, you know?
01:02:34Something that is sacred is that you have to be wanted.
01:02:40Beloved by your teammates.
01:02:44You have to be a part of the dressing room.
01:02:57HE SPEAKS SPANISH
01:03:03I wanted to prove to the Real Madrid fans
01:03:06that I was good enough.
01:03:09But that stadium...
01:03:13..it's tough.
01:03:16It's tough.
01:03:19HE SPEAKS SPANISH
01:03:24And you walk up and you're just like,
01:03:27oh, my God.
01:03:31It's very intimidating.
01:03:34It's very intimidating.
01:03:36You've seen some great players play there
01:03:39and they crumble.
01:03:43HE LAUGHS
01:03:48Beckham, the big focus of attention.
01:03:51So much has been written and said about him,
01:03:54substituted in his previous game.
01:03:56He lasted less than an hour.
01:03:59HE SPEAKS SPANISH
01:04:19The one thing he's not getting at the moment in Spain
01:04:22is time. They want him to perform right now.
01:04:25HE SPEAKS SPANISH
01:04:46But having my family there...
01:04:50..was a special moment for me.
01:04:53Then I felt safe.
01:05:10We're just warming up now.
01:05:18OK, now we start to play.
01:05:22Zidane. Zidane delivers.
01:05:25David Beckham trying to get in on that.
01:05:30And all of a sudden...
01:05:32..he start to grow up.
01:05:34He start to grow up.
01:05:36Beckham now.
01:05:42With that magic right foot.
01:05:45Real Madrid are looking very hungry.
01:05:47David Beckham, oh! Superb cross.
01:05:50And I was in the sideline...
01:05:52..enjoying that ball flying...
01:05:57Beckham.
01:05:59..and land.
01:06:01Flying and land.
01:06:03Here's Beckham. Beckham.
01:06:05Looking to temper line-up.
01:06:09Phew! Behind this pretty face, wait a minute.
01:06:14Real Madrid are going to bust away.
