Fabio Capello fumes at photographers

The 63-year-old Italian was unhappy that their focus was on a building that also contains a medical room.

'Why do you take photos of the rooms? No excuses,' said Capello. There will be no media access to Thursday's (today)training, although this was not a reaction to the events that occurred yesterday.

The decision, arranged within the England schedule, followed football world governing body Fifa's guidelines of allowing one session behind closed doors in the build-up to each game.

'Capello's outburst is probably a symptom of the adrenalin that is building up inside the England camp - they are all clearly desperate for this World Cup to start after such a long build-up,' said BBC Sport's chief football writer, Phil McNulty, reporting from the training camp. 'It might also be a sign of what England's players face inside the dressing room if they don't follow his orders.'

Meanwhile, Shaun Wright-Phillips took part in training for Saturday's Group C opener against the United States after recovering from a knee problem.

The winger missed Tuesday's session along with Aston Villa's James Milner, who had shaken off a slight temperature to train in the gym along with Tottenham defender Ledley King.

Goalkeeper David James also took part in yesterday session even though he is understood to have a knee injury. The Football Association insisted he is fit and available for Saturday's game.

It is unclear as to whether West Ham's Robert Green or Manchester City's Joe Hart would replace the 40-year-old Portsmouth keeper if he is unfit.

Manchester City midfielder Gareth Barry took part in training again, although he has ruled himself out of the game against the US as he recovers from an ankle problem. (BBC)
