recent england players who have managed:
-Gareth Southgate (2002,2000,1998,1996 Squad)....pretty poor managerial record
-Nicky Barmby (2000,1996 Squad)....decent start to his career but at championship level (decent though, not amazing)
-Dennis Wise (2000 Squad)....did ok at swindon and...
i think phil neville would make a great manager personally
doubt beckham would care that much....he clearly loves his football, but with the money he's made there isn't really much motivation for him to go into management....the best managers seem to be the ones who didn't have great playing...
