At this point in the book, Bower regurgitates England’s failed World Cup bid in 2010 involving Beckham to host the 2018 competition .
As we now know, thanks particularly to BBC’s Panorama, Fifa’s selection process was corrupt. Isn’t this stating the obvious while also asking a bit much of Beckham?
Why would Bower even press such a charge, especially considering he has spent the previous 200 pages – much of it reheated tabloid news,
long in the public domain – presenting the Beckhams as obtuse narcissistic airheads, whose only concerns in life are money, fame, sex and self-preservation.
It would have been interesting to have gleaned some genuine insight into the dynamic between two people who are,
as they have admitted themselves, supposedly a bit thick, yet have an estimated fortune of £250 million; some going for a footballer
who retired more than a decade ago, and someone who could not even lip-sync live, yet sold 85 million records.
