Matt Le Tissier aims bizarre dig at David Beckham for meeting Bill Gates

However, seeing Beckham with Gates has irked Le Tissier. The former Southampton midfielder was a big critic of the reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic and the UK government’s handling of it.

Speaking on a podcast hosted by former Wales international David Cotterrill, he said (via Goal): “My stomach turns when I saw that picture of David Beckham, [and] Bill Gates. I mean seriously, why? Why? You’re a good footballer, David. You weren’t world class, you were a very, very good footballer. At what you did, you were very good. Why are you getting involved? What are you getting involved with that bloke for? Do you have any idea what crimes he’s committed… I think it’s all part and parcel of that circle, of people of that level.”

Meanwhile, Le Tissier was took by a UFO after the podcast and he’s currently flying around the place with Michael Knighton.

It’s not like Beckham will be worried about what Le Tissier has to say about who he meets up with.
