Rickie Lambert and Artur Boruc both started on the bench as England took on Poland at Wembley.
The Saints striker and keeper were left amongst the subs by their respective nations at the start of the game which will decide whether England gain automatic qualification for next summer's World Cup.
Rumours around Wembley suggested that Boruc was missing through an injury, which would be a worry for Mauricio Pochettino.
Boruc has only conceded two goals in the Premier League season and was a certain starter against Manchester United at Old Trafford at the weekend.
