David Beckham has played with some of the greatest players ever to kick a ball.

Eric Cantona, Ronaldo, Paul Scholes, Raul, Ryan Giggs, Luis Figo, Roy Keane, Jaap Stam, Roberto Carlos... the list goes on and on. The free-kick specialist has got a hell of a pool of players to pick from and none of the above make the cut for his choice for best ever. And we can't really complain. https://twitter.com/gregianjohnson/status/651377466582372352?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Becks has plumped for French legend Zinedine Zidane as the best player he's played alongside and who, in all reality, is going to argue against it. UEFA Champions League: Real Madrid v Arsenal Beckham and Zizou were part of an unbelievable Real Madrid midfield in the mid-2000s and Zidane was doing some pretty special things back then so it's hard to dispute Becks' choice. The pair of legends will be on opposite sides when Beckham captains a Great Britain and Ireland all-star side that will take on Zizou's Rest of the World team in a charity match at Old Trafford on Saturday 14th November.
