Everyone’s swooning over David Beckham’s new hairstyle at Old Trafford this weekend

What do you think of Beck's new look?

Looking good for forty-something.

Manchester United continued their free-scoring form with a resounding 4-0 victory over Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon, but the moment in the live television coverage (or internet streaming) that attracted the most attention didn’t even happen on the pitch.

Footballing royalty was present in the shape of United legend David Beckham, and close to the end of the game, the camera lingered on the former England captain to show that he was sporting a new hairstyle. The 42-year-old seems to have ditched his normal quiff and short back’n’sides for a more free-flowing look.

He’s let his hair grow long and lank and returned to his beach blonde look. And judging from the reaction on social media, everyone approves of the new style…perhaps a bit much.
