What Emma Hayes said about Lauren James after Chelsea thrashed Leicester City

Emma Hayes lauded substitute Lauren James, who netted her first goal in a Blues shirt as Chelsea moved to the top of the Barclays FA Women’s Super League table with a 9-0 win away at Leicester City.

Guro Reiten, Sam Kerr and Beth England bagged a brace apiece, while Aniek Nouwen, and Jessie Fleming also contributed to the full-squad effort.

James, 20, joined Chelsea on a four-year deal from Manchester United last summer and debuted in November, but has found herself plagued with recurring injuries throughout the season.
