Beckham, who won six league titles during a trophy-laden spell at Old Trafford, caught the eye time and time again with a number of spectacular strikes from outside the box.
United 5/2 for PL crown
In fact, Beckham shares the record for the most consecutive goals scored from outside the penalty area in the Premier League alongside ex-Blackburn Rovers man Tugay with eight.
However, the duo are in danger of seeing one man overtake them in the long-range effort charts.
Stoke City star Xherdan Shaqiri - no stranger to a stunning goal - netted a fabulous strike from outside the box during his side’s 2-1 defeat against Newcastle United last weekend.
Despite the disappointment of the full-time result, Shaqiri’s goal was his sixth consecutive long-range strike in England’s top flight.
And the Switzerland international will be hoping to add to that tally - and edge closer to Beckham and Tugay’s in the process - when Stoke play host to champions Chelsea on Saturday.
The 25-year-old’s current sequence started against Newcastle during a 1-0 victory at the Britannia Stadium on 2 March 2016.
Former Bayern Munich man Shaqiri’s other consecutive efforts were against Middlesbrough and Hull City (three times).
