Romeo Beckham shows his true colours as he trolls dad David with two-word social media message after Arsenal beat Man United
Romeo Beckham did not spare his father’s emotions after brutally teasing Man United legend David Beckham following the side’s 2-0 defeat to Arsenal.
United lost 2-0 at Arsenal in the Premier League on Wednesday thanks to second-half goals from Jurrien Timber and William Saliba.
There were plenty of eyes on the clash in north London with plenty of pre-match discussion of how Amorim’s United would fare against Arteta’s Arsenal.
Interestingly, it was a match-up that sparked teasing among the Beckham household – with Arsenal fan Romeo getting the last laugh.
Prior to the game, Romeo took to Instagram to begin the back-and-forth with his father as he wrote: ‘Big game in the Beckham household today @davidbeckham #COYG’.
United legend David swiftly replied and wrote: ‘Big game for you lot. Just another game for us.’

Romeo then shared a picture of himself and girlfriend Kim Turnbull at the match, with the caption: ‘Nervous @davidbeckham?’.
However, Beckham Snr’s posts ended with his earlier response to Romeo – however the same cannot be said for the 22-year-old.
However, despite his quick-witted response to his son, it was Romeo who eventually got the last laugh as Arsenal eventually triumphed over the Red Devils.
After the match, Romeo posted a selfie with the caption: ‘Sleep well @davidbeckham’.
United legend David previously explained that his son’s affection to Arsenal came about due to club legend Arsene Wenger.
In an interview with Rio Ferdinand last month, Beckham explained: ‘He was really young and we were in London one Friday and he was like, ‘Dad let’s go to a game this weekend.
‘So I started to look at the fixtures and I was like ‘uh, Arsenal are at home’. So I thought, do you know what, they’re always really nice to me when I go down to watch United and Arsenal, and I thought okay, they’ll look after us, there won’t be any hassle getting in.
‘No hassle, sat there. So we walked in, amazing seats. Sat in the director’s box. Lunch was unbelievable before the game – it was like wagyu, full on, everything.

‘So we walk in, I’m sat there and then Arsene walks in the room and he comes straight over to the table, introduces himself to Romeo, and he says ‘come with me son’.
‘So he takes him down to the changing room, meets all the players, gives him a shirt, signed, takes him onto the pitch, walks him back up to the table and then gives him an Arsenal cashmere scarf, and that was it. It was done’.
Beckham’s former United teammates Gary Neville and Roy Keane were left frustrated after watching the side’s defeat to Arsenal on Wednesday.
‘Honestly that is c**p,’ Keane said, speaking on The Overlap, brought to you by Sky Bet. ‘If that was Fulham or Wolves playing like that we would be criticising them. F***ing rubbish.’
Carragher then replied: ‘Fulham are above them’, before Keane hit back and said: ‘You know what I mean, if they were giving the ball away as cheaply as that we would be saying they are average.’
Neville chimed in on the disappointment from a United perspective as he added: ‘This is getting messy this. United are dead now, they have gone.’
