At the moment it should be David Bentley, or at least in the near future.
Lennon should be involved in the squad, and it's quite frankly astonishing that he's in neither the U21s nor the senior NT, but as it is, Bentley has proven himself far more thus far and deserves the spot.
The great thing is though that both provide completely different options. Bentley is much better on the ball, and his passing and crossing is really similar to that of Beckham, while Lennon's pace is special and he can get past almost anyone on pace alone. So really it depends a bit on the defender they're playing against.
