She was by no means the quickest participant, however her smarts and expertise and odd capacity to attach with the ball typically noticed her get the higher of the attackers she was dealing with.

She did decelerate a bit in the direction of the tip of her time at Spurs, and when she left the membership to retire, you couldn’t actually argue it wasn’t time. Sadly, no one’s proven as a lot persona and verve at left again since Kerys left (apart from perhaps Ash Neville when she was performed out of place there).
