Manchester United striker Michael Owen is remaining relaxed about his situation with the England national team.
The former Liverpool, Real Madrid and Newcastle man is still in exile with the Three Lions and it seems time may be running out in the lead-up to South Africa 2010, but the proven goalscorer is remaining calm and positive over his plight.
"There's plenty more to life if I'm not picked in the England squad," Owen said.
"I'm playing for a top, top team playing for top honours, so we'll see where it takes us.
"I don't lie awake at night thinking about it. It's a simple equation, play well and you will be in, don't play well and you won't be in.
"I know the situation. I need to play well and score goals for Man Utd. If I do that then I could get picked.
"I will always score goals and I've got the record to show that. I think everyone knows what they will get from me and I have proven that at World Cups before.
"The last thing I want to do is start a campaign and say all the reasons why I could be or should be involved, I'm at ease with myself and the situation. I know what I've got to do and that's play well for Man United."
