McClaren, under pressure after disappointing performances against Macedonia and Croatia, has again omitted Beckham from his squad for Wednesday's friendly against Holland.
Asked about his decision to leave out the former England captain, McClaren told Football Focus: "It's the players that are in the squad that excite me - Aaron Lennon, Joe Cole - players that can beat players."
