Vicky Jepson makes Bethany England point after forward helps steer Tottenham to safety

Tottenham interim head coach Vicky Jepson believes Bethany England should be on the plane to Australia and New Zealand for this summer's World Cup, but also highlighted how the team around the forward have helped her thrive in recent weeks.

The 28-year-old joined the Lilywhites from Chelsea in January in a bid to increase her game time with the summer tournament just months away. Since joining Spurs, she's made a significant impact and England's two goals in the 4-1 win against Reading on Saturday helped secure their WSL status for another season.

Jepson, who temporarily took charge following the departure of Rehanne Skinner in March, is pleased to have avoided relegation given it was a real threat only a matter of months ago.
