Jarrod Bowen says not trying to do too much is the key for him as he faces a nervous wait to see if he will be in the 26-man England squad Gareth Southgate sends to UEFA on Friday night.
If he were just about any other nationality, the former Hull City winger could probably take his place at this summer's European Championship for granted after a season of 20 West Ham United goals and plenty more besides. But with Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, Anthony Gordon, James Maddison and Cole Palmer all realistic right-wing alternatives, plus the likes of Eberechi Eze and Jack Grealish competing to play on the opposite side, Bowen cannot be sure of making the cut.
'From where I’ve come from, to go to a major tournament would be the pinnacle probably. 'My mum, my dad, my brothers, my sisters, everyone - I had my dad and brother at St James' Park on Monday, and Hereford to Newcastle is a long old way. 'When you are away from you speak to your family. I’ve got two little girls that I will FaceTime, play PlayStation. 'It’s having that balance. Training time is work time, and when it’s down-time, it’s down-time for a reason.
