England coach Roy Hodgson is relaxed over captain Steven Gerrard's injury concerns ahead of the start of the World Cup. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain injured his knee against Ecuador last week, while there were reports that Gerrard has been complaining of a tight groin.
"We did a training session (yesterday) where the players who didn't play on Saturday (against Honduras) trained, and some of the others did a warm-down session," he said.
"Steven did some extra work at the end of that training session. There's nothing wrong with him and I don't understand that story at all."
On Oxlade-Chamberlain he said: "He's done very well and will work on his training programme during the course of the week."
