Ashley Cole is ruled out by injury but John Terry returns, - but only just.
JT has floating bone in his knee - adding to his already broken toe and cheekbone.
He was passed fit today after training yesterday. The floating bone dislodged itself after massage treatment but since it's floating could become lodged at any time - JT is a serious risk.
While JT seems to be indepensible to England coach Steve McClaren, Lampard is out in the cold.
Gareth Barry retains his place alongside weasel Steven Gerrard who bent McClaren's ear back about prefering Barry to Lamps.
Joe Cole and Shaun Wright-Phillips will start on the wide area of midfield as McClaren retains the 4;4;2 system which saw them destroy mighty Estonia 3-0 on Saturday.
They won via a goal which went through the goalkeeper's leg's, a deflected shot and a bizzare own goal.
Neither will occur in such a sequence again and apart from that England created very little.
But should England win in the Luzhniki Stadium, England will be into next year's Finals.
The final match of the group against leaders Croatia next month will be a gentle celebration occasion.
Will Frank get back into the side - only time will tell.
