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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
“What’s really impressive is the fact that she can score so many different types of goal,” said White.<\/p>\n
“Her free-kick against West Ham was ridiculous, she scores great headers, plus she is great technically and her fitness levels are great.”<\/p>\n
Former Chelsea midfielder Fara Williams told the BBC’s Women’s Football Show that Beever-Jones’ progression has been “phenomenal”.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
“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.”<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
But she was quick to praise her again on Sunday, describing her as “great for the team”.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
“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.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On Sunday Beever-Jones became the first Chelsea player to score in five successive WSL appearances since November 2023…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":180842,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-180841","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-football","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/180841","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=180841"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/180841\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/180842"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=180841"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=180841"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=180841"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
