Many will look at Emma Hayes's 12 years as Chelsea manager and think her lasting legacy is six potentially seven Women's Super League titles, five FA Cups, and two League Cups, but for me, her impact has been felt far beyond west London... She has forced up standards throughout the women's game.
At the Red Stars we arguably had the most talented group of individuals, but we were not the best team, and I think she realized it was imperative she recruited the right characters, not just the best players. I think this resulted in a big shift in Hayes's outlook.
