David Beckham was a pretty good footballer. He was never quite as sensational as much of the media would have had people believe, but that was not his fault as he was not the one doing the reporting.
He worked hard at the skills he did have, particularly his dead-ball skills, and although he would never have been the first name on my team sheet, had I been his Manager he would always have featured due to his consistency.
Off the field he seems to do a great deal of charitable stuff and I am sure is not as dim as some would paint him.
All in all there are a hell of a lot of people currently enjoying knighthood status with a lot less of a claim than he has merited.
So good luck to him.
Oh yeah, and did I mention that I would definitely give Posh Spice one too?

He could have become a legend in ManU.

He was/is.

I wonder if he might return to be involved in the club somehow.

Probably

I would say he's at least as well known for scoring that free kick against Greece which got them to the following World Cup.

And the trophies. He's got a few of them.

True ..he did redeem himself somewhat with that goal

He could have become a legend in ManU, instead he's chosen Posh life.

There appears to be a push to give a knighthood to a player best remembered (or is that just me) for a sending off for a petulant foul during the World cup - if that happened would the esteemed panel be happy with Lady Posh Beckham?

Becks and posh have had some great advisors however I think both of them are a lot more clued on they people think

Brand Beckham will continue for a while though

I thought he'd retired from football years ago

Isn't he an underwear model nowadays???

A lot of people seem to think he is a brand first and a footballer second, this is far from the truth, he has always been an outstanding footballer and a proper professional. A lot of current footballers could learn a lot from him.

The brand would never have come without him first getting noticed as a footballer.
