“It would be good if Zizou (Zidane) continues for some time and that they maintain the players they have today.
“Even if they don’t win the Champions League, it would be good to let Zizou work.
“Stability is key, not just in every aspect of life but in business.”
“I wasn’t born to coach but Zizou, yes,” Beckham said.
“Zizou, who won everything, was chosen the best player in the world several times and he experienced first hand many situations. There is no former player who garners more respect and admiration.”

He added, “It was only natural that he would end up coaching the team.
“At this time, they (Real) must be very happy with Zizou.
“His job in any case is very difficult because in the last five years, Madrid have had to face the best Barca in history.”
Barca is a monster, a well thought out and constructed team, with youngsters that are promoted from the youth team and with (Lionel) Messi, who is from another planet,” Beckham said.
“When you compete against a team like that one, everything becomes more complicated.”
Beckham refused to wade into the “senseless debate” over who is the better player between Real’s Cristiano Ronaldo and Barca’s Messi.
“Both are unique, just like Zizou in his day. They have marked an era.
“We will remember the Messi and Cristiano years and both at the same time!
“No one had ever maintained that level throughout for so long.
“Whoever knows them, they always highlight their persistence and hunger to get better. They want to be the best.”
