Cantona and Stam, but Ronaldo edges Beckham in Parker's Man United XI

David Beckham was an eager youngster when Paul Parker signed for Manchester United in 1991, the year before the future England captain would win the FA Youth Cup with the Class of '92.

Both were from London and Parker, who played for England at the 1990 World Cup and made 146 appearances for United, would sometimes share a car ride south with Beckham during their time off.

But Parker, who works as a coach in Singapore, hasn't included Beckham in his best Manchester United team, chosen from the first 25 years of the Premier League, between 1992 and 2017.
