Beckham shows true colours with savage reply to Arsenal fan son Romeo

DAVID BECKHAM had a savage reply to son, Romeo, ahead of Arsenal's clash with Manchester United.

Red Devils icon David Beckham is no stranger to the rivalry with Arsenal on the pitch, having been a regular star in the fixture until leaving for Real Madrid in 2003.

However, the 49-year-old now has to deal with the rivalry in his own home with his second eldest child Romeo being a Gunners supporter.

And with United off to the Emirates for their first meeting of the season, Romeo took to Instagram to fan the flames before the game.

He shared a selfie with the caption: "Big game in the old Beckham household today @davidbeckham. COYG."

But Inter Miami owner Beckham snr took no prisoners with a brutal reply.

Quoting Romeo's story on Instagram, he said: "Big game for you lot.

"Just another game for us."

Beckham has recalled how Romeo wanted to watch a match one weekend, with Arsenal happening to be on.

He was then treated well by then-Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger, who took him into the changing room to meet the players and present him with a signed shirt.

And from there, Beckham has been unable to sway his son back to supporting his own old club.

He told Rio Ferdinand Presents: "It was done!

"I've tried to change his mind since, but it is impossible."

Tonight's game starts an incredible 13-game run for Arsenal where they will travel just 250 miles across all competitons.

A win for Mikel Arteta's side could move them to within six points of Liverpool if the league leaders lose to Newcastle.

Meanwhile, a win for Ruben Amorim's side will move them to within three points of Arsenal.
