England manager Fabio Capello insisted his relationship with his players is "really good" ahead of Wednesday's crunch World Cup clash with Slovenia.
The outspoken John Terry is set to start alongside Matthew Upson, who replaces the suspended Jamie Carragher, as England look to secure the victory that will guarantee their place in the last 16. Ledley King remains sidelined with a groin injury.
Slovenia, who only need a point to progress, have an injury concern over centre-back Marko Suler (rib) so Matej Mavric is waiting in the wings to replace him. Striker Necj Pecnik will play no further part in the World Cup after breaking his ankle against the United States.
