Former Manchester United star David Beckham has quashed claims that England's failures during his time as a player were down to cliques being formed by players from certain clubs.
It has often been suggested that England's failures during the 'Golden Generation' were down to cliques being formed by players who were called up for international duty. The likes of Neville, Beckham, Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney were chosen to represent England alongside Liverpool's Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher amongst others.
Despite their individual talents, the Three Lions failed to lift any trophies during the aforementioned era, with England still awaiting their first success in a major tournament since 1966. But according to Beckham, any cliques that were deemed to exist in the changing room had no impact on the team's performances.
