Injured Cole out of England squad
Players back Eriksson, says Owen
Ashley Cole has withdrawn from the England squad to play Austria and Poland after suffering a stress fracture of his foot.
Liverpool left-back Stephen Warnock has been called up in his place.
"Ashley has had to pull out," said coach Sven-Goran Eriksson. "He took a scan and has stress fracture and will be out for one month at least."
Captain David Beckham missed training on Tuesday to be with his ill son Romeo but will join the squad on Wednesday.
Striker Michael Owen was also absent as he recovers from the dead leg that forced him to force Newcastle's game against Portsmouth on Saturday - but he is expected to be fit to play.
Eriksson said that the loss of Cole was a blow but that he had plenty of alternatives.
"We have a lot of options there, Jamie Carragher is one, Warnock is another, Kieran Richardson is playing left-back for Manchester United at this moment," he said.
"But it is a pity to lose Ashley Cole, probably the best left-back in the world.
"It so often happens when one full-back is injured the other is as well in Gary Neville and Ashley Cole."
