Man Utd legend Beckham expects football pressure growing for son Brooklyn

Manchester United legend David Beckham admits son Brooklyn does struggle with the pressure of expectation.

Brooklyn has trialled with Fulham, Chelsea and Manchester United.

Beckham told the Daily Mail: "I wouldn't say it affects Brooklyn but he feels the pressure when he goes on to the pitch.

"The kids say 'he's going to be the best'. If he has a bad game, he hears what the other kids say. The youngest one Romeo doesn't care what anyone says.

"He's got two older brothers, Brooklyn and Cruz, to compete with. I'm just proud they want to play football. It gives them discipline, it is all very scheduled at Arsenal and they have great coaches. They do feel the pressure a little bit."
