England left Women’s Super League champions Chelsea in January to affix relegation-battlers Spurs for £250,000 as she needed extra sport time.
The striker had not been in an England squad since September, however she has made the airplane for this summer time’s World Cup after ending the season with 12 targets in as many video games.
England has admitted she “screamed my house down” after getting the call-up and it proves she was proper to go away Chelsea after seven years with the Blues.
“It was a big risk,” stated England. “I didn’t really like the thought of change and it all happened so quickly.
“I could have stayed at Chelsea, I could have stayed on the bench in my comfort zone, but then I’d have been watching other people going out there to Australia when I know that it’s something I would have regretted looking back on.
“I’m glad the risk paid off and even if it didn’t pay off and I didn’t come, I could have at least looked at myself in the mirror knowing I did everything I could to put myself on that flight.
“Ultimately it’s my career and I had to take it into my own hands and make sure that I put myself in the best position because I’m not getting any younger.
“Change can be scary and I’ve never dealt well with change, but luckily I hit the ground running and I’m just thankful that it turned out well.”
