Takes one shot in loss Williams put one shot off target during Sunday's 4-0 loss to Barcelona.

Impact Williams was able to snag a fine finish in the second minute on his 350th appearance for Athletic Club, the only team of his professional career. With four goals and one assist in 10 starts, Williams will hope to score double-digit goals for the first time since 2018/19 if he can keep up the pace.

Kept quiet in loss Williams put three shots off target and created two chances during Saturday's 1-0 loss to Atletico Madrid.

Impact Williams couldn't find much space against an improved defense now using the best lineup at its disposal. Things didn't improve when he moved to the wing where Reinildo proceeded to shut him down, but Williams will need to continue pressing if he's to keep up his solid form after scoring twice and logging one assist in his last four starts.

Takes two shots in draw Williams took two shots (zero on target) and created one chance during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Sevilla.

Impact Williams ran into trouble with Marcao making his debut and the opponents playing far more physically under new manager Jorge Sampaoli.

Scores in win Williams scored one goal from four shots (two on goal) and created one chance from three crosses (zero accurate) during Friday's 4-0 win over Almeria.

With two goals in his last four games and confidence from playing for Ghana's national team, Williams could be set for big things in a busy month before the World Cup. Over the last four games Williams and his teammates have scored 11 goals, of which eight came on the road.

Scores in win Williams scored one goal from four shots (two on goal) and created one chance during Saturday's 3-2 win over Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Williams did well to put away his goal after missing a good chance moments before. With two goals in his last four matches on 14 shots (seven on target), Williams has found some of his best form in recent memory. He's not the only one in this attack who's confident in their play, so keep track of how Williams progresses over the first half of the campaign.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Shotless in win Williams failed to take a shot and logged two inaccurate crosses during Sunday's 1-0 win over Valencia.

Impact Williams started at striker instead of on the right wing but still made plenty of runs down the flank. While he still lacks the smart decision making which could elevate his play, Williams remains as guaranteed a member of the team as one can be as long as he's fit. There's still something to figure out in what could get Williams or other strikers to provide the goals this team needs to excel all season long.

AUGUST 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Active in draw Williams put two shots off target and created three chances from five crosses (one accurate) during Monday's scoreless draw with Mallorca.

Impact Williams started on the right wing as opposed to as a striker and it resulted in far more involvement than he's had in recent seasons under Marcelino. While goals are still needed to make Williams a top fantasy option, this is a step in the right direction.

AUGUST 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes two shots in loss Williams put two shots off target during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Sevilla.

Impact Williams didn't have a perfect game to finish the season but still ends with eight goals, five assists and some impressive performances in the Copa del Rey. With the team still in transition, where he's positioned and how the team lines up will be fun to watch for someone who's played in every game since debuting in the first division.

Logs assist in win Williams logged one assist from two chances created and took four shots (three on goal) during Sunday's 2-0 win over Osasuna.

Impact Williams had no trouble running into space when he wanted to and that's how he was able to set up Asier Villalibre with a clean through-ball from the wing. With one goal and two assists in the last five matches, Williams is at least contributing something and that's a good way for him to end the year. The final game is a trip to Sevilla, which have conceded the fewest goals in La Liga.

MAY 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores from spot in win Williams scored one penalty goals and created two chances in 77 minutes of Saturday's 2-0 win over Atletico Madrid.

Impact Williams hasn't had a great season but played to his best Saturday by first forcing an own goal and then sending goalkeeper Jan Oblak the wrong way on a tidy penalty. With one goal and one assist over the last two games, Williams should be able to close out the season in good shape. That will begin against Valencia, which are tied for the fourth-most goals conceded in the league.

MAY 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Provides assist in win Williams provided one assist from two chances created and took two shots (one on goal) during Thursday's 3-2 win over Cadiz.

Impact Williams set up Raul Garcia for the opener in recording his second assist from the last five matches. As Williams has failed to score in his last six games, it's important for Garcia to keep up his efforts if either are to offer much value. Up next is a visit from Atletico Madrid, which have conceded 39 goals in 33 matches.

APRIL 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Subs off at halftime Williams put two shots off target and was replaced at halftime of Sunday's 2-0 loss to Celta Vigo.

Impact Williams and a number of his teammates looked lost, and he didn't last past the interval in a number of tactical changes that couldn't bring his team in front. He'll now look to rebound against Cadiz, which have conceded 43 goals in their first 31 matches.

Impact Williams set up Yuri Berchiche's equalizer on Friday, but he couldn't find the back of the net himself for a would-be winner despite some dangerous activity. After the international break he will be looking for his eighth goal of the season against Elche, which have conceded 39 times in 28 La Liga matches.

MARCH 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Finds net in win Williams scored one goal from six shots (four on goal) in 79 minutes of Monday's 3-1 win over Levante.

Comes off bench in loss Williams put one shot on target in 13 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 4-0 loss to Barcelona.

Impact Williams wasn't permitted to start with little time to rest ahead of Wednesday's Copa del Rey match against Valencia.

He'll now focus more on the two Valencia clubs, first in the cup then against Levante on Monday.

FEBRUARY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in win Williams scored one goal from four shots (two on goal) and created two chances during Sunday's 4-0 win over Real Sociedad.

Impact Williams scored for the first time in a league match since mid-December but it couldn't have come in a bigger game as he sealed the derby with a fourth goal. What may be more impressive is how well Williams ran between the center-backs instead of opening up space on the flanks, as this will do wonders to how well he and his teammates can find scoring chances. This could be one trend to watch in the next match against Barcelona.

FEBRUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Comes off bench in win Williams logged 26 minutes off the bench and put one shot off target during Monday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Williams didn't get the start in preparation for Thursday's Copa del Rey semifinal against Valencia, so it's not surprising he didn't make the lineup when he's going to play in every match anyway. When looking for goals from Athletic's attack, Oihan Sancet offers more production than Williams who spends most of his time doing the hard work.

FEBRUARY 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes two shots in win Williams logged two shots (one on goal) and conceded a yellow card during Sunday's 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Williams has scored in just one of the last 12 matches but his team remains in fine form aside from the Super Cup loss to Real Madrid. Still, it takes more to make a difference when goals provide so much value, so Williams needs to take advantage of upcoming matches against Espanyol and Mallorca.

JANUARY 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes one shot in draw Wiliams put one shot off target and created one chance during Sunday's scoreless draw at Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Williams drew an early yellow card on Florian Lejeune and powered a shot into the side-netting, but otherwise had little impact and was pulled after 60 minutes. His early departure suggested that the upcoming Super Cup is more important than a rainy derby likely to end in a draw, so the move played out in his team's favor even if Williams lost a chance to make a bigger mark. No matter how lackluster Williams looks in front of goal, he holds the longest streak for consecutive league games played and that isn't likely to break any time soon.

JANUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Logs assist in win Williams provided one assist from three chances created and put three shots off target during Monday's 3-1 win over Osasuna.

Impact Williams has recorded two goals from eight shots and one assist from four chances created over his last three matches. As a player often derided for his inconsistency, this is an important time to take advantage of his and his teammate's good form. He'll next face Deportivo Alaves, which are tied for the most goals conceded to forwards in the league.

JANUARY 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores twice in win Williams scored two goals from three shots (all on goal) during Sunday's 3-2 win over Real Betis.

Impact Williams scored two goals in a league match for the first time in multiple years to get his team back into winning ways and take down one of the league's top teams. It may not be wise to expect a repeat performance in Wednesday's visit from Real Madrid, but one would anticipate that Williams and his teammates are in better spirits after a tough two months.
