All 23 members of the England squad were present for this morning's training session at a snowy London Colney ahead of the friendly international against France.

Frank Lampard, the Chelsea midfielder, was among the first out on to the pitch, showing few ill-effects from the hip problem he sustained during yesterday's 2-1 Barclays Premier League win over Arsenal.

Wayne Rooney was also able to take part, despite fears he may have suffered an injury in yesterday's 3-0 win against Liverpool at Old Trafford.

Fabio Capello, the England manager, has already suffered a number of withdrawals after a back injury yesterday forced Chris Kirkland, the Wigan Athletic goalkeeper, to withdraw from the squad - with West Ham United's Robert Green added to the party set to travel for Wednesday's friendly.

Kirkland played throughout Saturday's Premier League defeat against Blackburn Rovers but subsequently reported discomfort, after appearing to injury himself early on at Ewood Park.

Green became the second goalkeeper to be added to the squad, with Tottenham Hotspur's Paul Robinson called up on Saturday night following an injury to Aston Villa's on-loan Scott Carson.

Of the three initially selected, only Portsmouth's David James managed to come through his weekend assignment unscathed - in a 2-0 defeat against Robinson's Spurs at White Hart Lane yesterday.

Capello reduced his squad from 30 to 23 on Saturday, with Tottenham keeper Paul Robinson coming in for the injured Scott Carson.

But the Italian also showed his ruthless streak by dropping Jermaine Jenas and Shaun Wright-Phillips, who scored the goals against the Swiss, from his provisional list of players to take to Stade de France.

Gabriel Agbonlahor, Ashley Young, Jermain Defoe and David Wheater also missed out - with Carson, Matthew Upson and Kirkland ruled out through injury.

Capello has yet to reveal who will captain his side on Wednesday, with John Terry and Steven Gerrard understood to be the leading contenders.

He said: "I have two or three ideas - I will decide before the game. I have already said that the permanent captain will be decided before the World Cup qualifiers."
