Fara Williams

Fara Williams is the sort of footballer I most admire: durable, reliable, and quietly decisive. A set-piece specialist and consistent goalscorer, she sustained an elite career over many years rather than burning bright and fading, which to me is the harder and more impressive feat. Coming up through Chelsea and Charlton, she carried a London grit into one of England's most dependable midfields. The MBE feels like recognition not just of trophies but of what she did to lift the standing of the women's game. Players who give the whole career, not just the flashes, deserve lasting respect.
