David Beckham can’t confide in the number of paparazzi harassing him wherever he goes, or rest assured that the Los Angeles Galaxy will be victorious come end of season. But he can depend on Galaxy fans criticizing his Hollywood lifestyle by using extravagant hyperbole that made us smirk like Edward Scissorhands.

“He’s spending more time on red carpets than he is on green grass - and what kind of example is he setting younger players with the team struggling the way it is?” Contactmusic quoted a fan named Rick Cordillo as saying.

Buuuurn. No worries. An LA Galaxy goon buffed out the ingrates comments.

“He’s the first one on the training pitch and the last one off. What he does in his private life in no way reflects on the team, he said. He’s a major celebrity and he’s bound to attract attention wherever he goes,” he added.

Cruz Beckham wants a word with those fans as well.
