Wubben-Moy’s career has been a successful one.
She has made more than 100 appearances for Arsenal, winning the Champions League and four domestic cup trophies across two spells at the club.
Her breakout campaign came in 2023-24, when she worked closely with then assistant coach Renee Slegers to analyse her performances, and did more yoga.
At the end of that season she told BBC Sport she recruited her own team of statisticians – not affiliated with Arsenal – to help her develop personal skills that match the team’s “DNA”.
But injuries have disrupted her progress, and stiff competition – largely in the form of England captain Williamson – has stifled opportunities.
“You always have to trust in the process. It sounds cliched, but I think for every individual your journey looks different,” said Wubben-Moy.
“My journey hasn’t always been smooth and I actually think that’s put me in better stead. I’ve learned so much about myself as a person and a player.
“I am now stronger, fitter, more confident, and that is only a result of the journey that I’ve had.
“I’d be lying if I said there weren’t doubts.
“You constantly teeter on the line of confidence and belief but, ultimately, when you live life constantly wanting to push yourself, you will only ever get good results.”
Spending time on the sidelines will have been a frustrating period for Wubben-Moy, particularly during major tournaments.
But it is a testament to her value as a player that Wubben-Moy’s thoughts were rarely about her, and only about the role she needed to play to help England win.
“First and foremost, I’m thinking ‘What can I do to help? What can I do to contribute?'” she said.
“When you look at things from that perspective, there will always be a possibility. There will always be something that you can do, regardless of whether you’re playing or not.”
