Fara Williams makes Chelsea title claim and praises ‘exceptional’ Emma Hayes

England legend Fara Williams has made a bold prediction about where Chelsea will finish in this season’s Women’s Super League.

The Blues made a shaky start to their league campaign, succumbing to a shock defeat at the hands of newly-promoted Liverpool on the opening day at Prenton Park. The West London club quickly returned to form though, comfortably dispatching title rivals Manchester City before claiming victory over West Ham, Everton and Brighton & Hove Albion to climb to third place on the table.

Following Sunday’s 2-0 win at the Broadfield Stadium, ex-Chelsea midfielder Fara Williams has backed her former club to retain their WSL title and top the table for the fourth consecutive year.
