Alex Scott, the 22-year-old new addition to the England national team, spoke about his mental strength, attributing it to his roots from the island of Guernsey. He spoke of his mental fortitude, overcoming the rejection from Southampton FC at age 12, his injuries, and his eventual move to Bournemouth in the Premier League, as well as his call-up by German coach Thomas Tuchel for the matches against Serbia and Albania. Scott revealed that his sister, Maya, plays alongside him. He also mentioned that away matches in England would start with a 6 AM flight, but the team was not afraid because they had to 'hold their heads high' when returning to the island. Scott, a European champion with the under-19 and under-21 national teams, added that they traveled to English matches without fear.
