Allardyce also revealed he has not yet made a decision on who will captain England, which leaves the Manchester United skipper Wayne Rooney sweating on whether he will retain the armband.
"The pressure on players at international level we will be looking at in depth," said the 61-year-old.
"I will exploit all areas for the benefit of the players. The key element is to get among the staff in place and talk about the programme going forward, psychologically. It's not about potential now. It's about standing up and being counted even though some of those experiences have been bitter."
