So it would seem that English Football has its new Saviour. After two games, two match winning performances and three assists, David Beckham's recall to the England side has, for the time at least, kept Steve McLaren in a job.

However, as a fan of both Rovers and England, I would love to know why if a player of Beckham's abilities is so critical to the cause of the Three Lions, why is the closest player in terms of playing style, our very own David Bentley, once again ignored in favour of lesser team mates?

I like David Beckham, I really do. He seems like a nice guy and not forgetting his tremendous ability from set-pieces and crossing prowess in open play he has a good work rate and seems to offer a presence on the pitch that McLaren's England have sadly missed.

This is not a campaign to have the original DB7 replaced by our very own version, David Bentley, as Mr Posh Spice has clearly shown he is worthy of his England place at this moment in time. However, what concerns me, admittedly as a Rovers fan, is that the England manager continues to ignore players from so called lesser clubs in favour of deadwood players at bigger ones.

Stuart Downing, Kieron Dyer and Tottenham's Jermaine Jenas were all midfielders called into action at some point against Estonia, all at the expense of Bentley who didn't even make the subs bench. The Rovers right-winger has comfortably out-performed all three consistently this season yet was nowhere to be seen. In fact rather than earning a well-earned rest after a season well done he now is to join with the Under 21 squad for a summer tournament, which will doubtlessly have an impact on his early season form for the Blue and Whites.

If David Bentley isn't ready to play against Estonia, then he will never be ready in my mind, and in my opinion it is about time Steve McLaren started making football decisions, rather than just popular ones.

And to quote a well known phrase: If Jermaine Jenas is the answer; it must have been a very stupid question.
