Although Gary Neville and David Beckham worked extremely well together on the right-hand side of the pitch for Man United, the duo had massive problems sharing a hotel room with each other. Gary Neville explained that he 'hated' sharing a room with David Beckham on away days for Man United due to the cleanliness levels of the current Inter Miami owner. After six months of sharing hotel rooms, each Man United star was given an individual room as a result of the lack of compatibility between teammates.

Gary Neville further explained that David Beckham was the total opposite in nature, as the latter would prefer peace and listening to music while the former Man United right-back was always talking and arguing about things in general. Another major Gary Neville hotel room issue with Beckham was the sleep timings of his roommate. On their travels for Premier League and Champions League away games, Neville followed the 'early to bed, early to rise' mantra, while Beckham was the total opposite. Lack of sleep and differences in tidiness forced the Man United players to accommodate themselves in individual rooms just six months after being pairing.
