The conservative thinking is true of national managers in general. But if you look at McClaren (who has just been nicely implicated in the FA probe), he has also brought back Becks like he is a promising youngster. That shows a manager in deep crisis, lacking confidence and praying that his big name stars are going to play him out of trouble. England's back to where they started.
