Piers Morgan has launched an explosive attack on Manchester United legend David Beckham, labeling the former England captain "the most overrated player in history."During his playing career at Manchester United, Beckham amassed 85 goals and 106 assists in 388 matches across all competitions. He has 127 goals and 210 assists in 718 club appearances over the course of his career. However, Morgan does not appear to be impressed by those numbers. In response to former Tottenham Hotspur striker Gary Lineker, who tweeted his admiration for Beckham, the controversial TV presenter posted:"Beckham was the most overrated player in history. Wouldn't have got onto the Arsenal Invincibles bench."Piers Morgan@piersmorganYou might want to suck up to him, for whatever reason, but Beckham was the most overrated player in history.

He continued:"Beckham would get nowhere near an all-time England XI and as for his 6 clubs, he wouldn’t make an all-time United, Real Madrid, Milan or PSG team & would struggle to make Preston’s. But on a positive note, he would get into LA Galaxy’s."Piers Morgan@piersmorganWell no, because Ronaldo’s the greatest player in history and can do everything better than Beckham.
