Ben Johnson has earmarked improvements in the final third if he is to continue catching the eye on the international stage. The West Ham United full back is expected to make his England Under-21 debut against Andorra at Vitality Stadium on Friday evening in the latest landmark of a season in which he has become an established Premier League player.
The 22-year-old, who has not been part of the England underage pathway up to now, has scored once for David Moyes’s team and, seeing the attacking impact of other players in his position, is eager to make more impact to stay in the international picture.
“I feel I can get more assists, I feel I can create better chances. Maybe getting more goal-scoring opportunities and areas to score," Johnson said. “I don’t think any footballer is the finished article but I would definitely say those things could put me ahead of some players.
