Liverpool have wound their neck in over Steven Gerrard's hamstring injury suffered while on England duty.
Reds boss Roy Hodgson says they won't kick up a fuss - on request from Gerrard.
He explained: "My thoughts on Steven are obviously, as Liverpool manager, that I'm frustrated and disappointed to lose such a good player for a long period of time after a friendly.
"Saying anything other than I'm disappointed and a bit angry would be dishonest, but Steven is anxious to put a tin lid on the matter.
"We've had a couple of days of club-versus-country debate but Steven is a very important player for both teams and anxious to put this behind him.
"He's keen to make it clear he is disappointed and sad too, but will do everything to get to full fitness as soon as possible.
"I've not spoken to Capello, I don't want to discuss it, but I don't expect an apology from anyone.
"I've said all I have to say. I won't add any fuel to the fire or the debate which has been raging.
"My main concern is Liverpool Football Club, the match against West Ham - and with Steven in particular."
