A new era (continued)?


ROLL UP! ROLL UP! The Beckham PR circus is back in town!

England football coach Steve McClaren has recalled former captain David Beckham. After reportedly impressing for Real Madrid in recent weeks, 32-year old Beckham is back for the friendly against Brazil and the Euro 2008 qualifier against Estonia on 6 June.

Beck's selection seems like a desperate backward step by McClaren to save his skin from the press and the public. And selecting this media darling is a short-term decision, in my opinion.
We should be concentrating on building an England team for the future instead...if that means not qualifying for Euro 2008, so be it.
