On Sunday Beever-Jones became the first Chelsea player to score in five successive WSL appearances since November 2023 – when she also happened to be the most recent Blues player to achieve that feat.
Such has been Beever-Jones’ start to the campaign, Chelsea manager Sonia Bompastor has been able to slowly ease Kerr back into the fold, bringing her on as a substitute in the past three matches.
“What’s really impressive is the fact that she can score so many different types of goal,” said White.
“Her free-kick against West Ham was ridiculous, she scores great headers, plus she is great technically and her fitness levels are great.”
Former Chelsea midfielder Fara Williams told the BBC’s Women’s Football Show that Beever-Jones’ progression has been “phenomenal”.
She said: “When you look at Aggie Beever-Jones in terms of her development, in the last few seasons she’s been that bit-part player that has come into the team.
“With the injuries to Ramirez, and Sam Kerr just coming back, she’s now getting a run of games and it shows the confidence. This time last year she wouldn’t have been stepping up to take that free-kick.”
Bompastor is more than aware of Beever-Jones’ goalscoring prowess, having seen her end last season as Chelsea’s top scorer in all competitions with 13 goals – coming from 22 starts and 13 substitute appearances.
But she was quick to praise her again on Sunday, describing her as “great for the team”.
The Frenchwoman does not usually select two out-and-out strikers so will have a big decision to make when Kerr is ready to start.
“At the moment with Aggie, you would not take her off,” said White. “It is more a case of adding to her, to help the team improve.”
