David Beckham has risked the wrath of devoted Manchester City fan Noel Gallagher.

The former Manchester United midfielder has cheekily adapted rivals City’s flag to Red Devils red.

Beckham could not mask his displeasure as he posed in front of a giant Manchester City flag with friend and famous Blues fan Noel Gallagher on Thursday.

David Beckham has cheekily changed the colour of the Manchester City flag 'So much better sorry Noel'

Amazing evening only disappointment from the night was the color and size of this flag ... Cheers Noel if only it had been RED 🔴 @themightyi

The 40-year-old attended Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds show at the Royal Albert Hall and posted a photo of the pair in front of the flag.

‘Amazing evening only disappointment from the night was the colour and size of this flag ... Cheers Noel if only it had been RED,’ quipped Beckham.

However Beckham has had the last laugh, posting the now red Manchester City flag on his Instagram page captioned, ‘So much better sorry Noel.’

His photo editing skills are sure to get a response from Gallagher, who is a lifelong City supporter along with former Oasis brother band-mate Liam,

The pair have owned corporate boxes at the club for years and their songs can be regularly heard booming out at the Etihad stadium.

Fortunately Beckham was far more impressed by the concert than the Manchester club's flag.

Amazing night at the Royal Albert hall ... One of the best gigs I've ever been too... Thanks to Noel & Sarah .. Incredible

Posting a video of the concert, Beckham described it as an 'amazing night at the Royal Albert hall... One of the best gigs I've ever been too... Thanks to Noel & Sarah... Incredible.’

The gig was Beckham's second in a matter of days, having attended a Mumford & Sons show at the London's O2 arena with friends on Wednesday evening.

Meanwhile, the UNICEF ambassador has reason to celebrate after plans to create a new football team in Miami have taken a step closer following a site for the franchise's stadium was approved by the Major League Soccer.
