KATHRYN BATTE: Emma Hayes has cemented a legacy as one of the greats, but she is also a mother... after a tough season on and off the pitch it was fitting that she lifted her sixth title alongside her son

What is there left to say about Emma Hayes? A fourth consecutive title, a third consecutive double.

There is no other person you would want to lead you into battle when it comes to the final month of a season. Hayes has now won the Women’s Super League six times and will go down as one of the best managers the game has ever seen.

But what is not discussed enough is the things you don’t see, the hours of sacrifice that goes into winning a league title.

Hayes is a mother as well as a football manager.
