    Best soccer player? No.

    Best at parlaying his success on the field into mega-celebrity and billions of dollars? Perhaps.

    In no way, shape or form the best player of this or any other era. Not even close. Anyone who would ask knows nothing about soccer.

    Echo what both InkyWretch and deskslave said. Very good player who's known more as a celebrity. Nowhere near close to the best ever.

    One of the most overrated athletes ever. Talented, sure, but anyone who knows soccer understands there are so many more players who are better who get just a fraction of the spolight. Beckham is massively overrated.

    He could sit at the table of best dead ball strikers of all time, but best player, uhhhh he wouldn't even make Manchester United's best 11.

    He could literally make free kicks bend with his mind, though.

    Most popular player ever? Maybe...

    Best? He's damn good, but not even close to being the best ever.
