Arsenal manager Renee Slegers has highlighted the benefits of Olivia Smith's ability to play as a central striker, citing the flexibility it brings to the team as they prepare to face Brighton on Sunday, with coverage available on BBC iPlayer at 14:30 GMT.

In their previous outing, Smith was deployed in a central role, having been moved from the right wing, and scored the decisive goal in a win over Manchester City, who currently top the league table.

Smith retained her central position in the midweek Champions League match against OH Leuven, finding the net once again and demonstrating her capability to deputize for the injured Stina Blackstenius.

According to Slegers, Smith's adaptability has been a significant asset, stating, "Liv has done an excellent job in that role, and it provides us with options. We can adjust our approach as needed, which is a key strength of our squad."

Olivia Smith's ability to play in various positions and her positive attitude are driving forces behind Arsenal's success.

In the recent match against Manchester City, Smith utilized her speed to outmaneuver defender Rebecca Knaak, scoring the winning goal, and later showcased her positional awareness in the Champions League tie, scoring in a 4-0 victory.

Slegers noted, "We've discovered new facets of Olivia's game, which is exciting to see."

"Olivia excels at dribbling, but what's impressive is how she combines with Alessia Russo and Frida Maanum in the number 10 role, creating effective partnerships," Slegers observed.

"Her movement and timing are exceptional, and her explosive nature allows her to react swiftly to any opportunities that arise in the box."

With Stina Blackstenius still sidelined due to a calf injury and Beth Mead unavailable with a shin fracture, Smith is likely to continue in the central role when Arsenal travels to Brighton this weekend.

The hosts, Brighton, secured a 4-2 win in the corresponding fixture last season, but they have struggled in recent outings, losing four of their last five league matches.

In contrast, Arsenal are seeking their third consecutive WSL victory and have remained unbeaten in the league since October.

When asked about her expectations for the upcoming match, Slegers commented, "Brighton has faced challenges recently, but I believe they are a capable team. We had a disappointing performance and lost when we visited them last year, so we're aware of their potential."

"They employ an aggressive press, but their approach can vary, as we saw in our previous away match against them. We'll need to be prepared for their strategy this time around."

"As a team, we've grown and learned from our experiences, and we're in a better position than we were last year. We can draw upon those lessons to navigate different situations."

The Women's Super League match between Brighton and Arsenal will be broadcast live on Sunday, 15 February, at 14:30 GMT.

Following his departure from Wolves, Vitor Pereira had been seeking a return to the Premier League.

A deal has been finalized for Vitor Pereira to take the reins at Nottingham Forest until the end of the next season, becoming the club's fourth manager this campaign, with the goal of guiding them to safety in the Premier League.

Pereira succeeds Sean Dyche, who was relieved of his duties early on Thursday, at the City Ground.

Although an official announcement from Forest is still pending, Pereira is poised to make a comeback in English football, having previously been in charge of Wolves for 11 months before being dismissed in November.

Nottingham Forest currently occupies 17th place in the Premier League standings, with a three-point cushion above the relegation zone, following a run of two wins in their last 10 outings.

Pereira is the fourth individual to manage Forest since September, preceded by Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou, and Dyche.

The decision to part ways with Dyche came after a disappointing goalless draw against Wolves, who are currently at the bottom of the table, on Wednesday.

Pereira, who managed 14 wins out of 38 games during his tenure at Wolves and helped the team avoid relegation last season, emerged as the top candidate to replace Dyche, having previously worked under Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis at Olympiacos.

During his six-month stint at Olympiacos, Pereira secured the title and Greek Cup in the 2014-15 season before moving on to Fenerbahce.

Pereira's tenure at Wolves began in December 2024, but was cut short three months ago, with the team having accumulated only two points from their first 10 league matches.

With a managerial career spanning over 18 years, Pereira is set to embark on his 15th role, having started out with Sanjoanense in 2004 and subsequently managed teams in Germany, China, Brazil, and Saudi Arabia.

A lackluster performance saw Forest held to a draw by Wolves at home.

Nuno's tenure at Forest was terminated just three games into the season in September, after he disclosed a strained relationship with owner Marinakis, despite the team's seventh-place finish and European qualification the previous season.

Ange Postecoglou took over as Nuno's successor but failed to win any of his eight league games in charge, lasting only 39 days, with a record of two draws and six losses.

The appointment of Dyche initially brought stability, with seven wins in his first 12 games, but a recent slump led to Forest struggling to create distance from the relegation zone, with some players expressing dissatisfaction with his tactics.

In the aftermath of the Wolves draw, several players were summoned to meet with owner Marinakis, with further discussions taking place following the 3-1 defeat to Leeds on Friday.

Pereira's first match at the helm will be the Europa League knockout round play-off tie against his former club Fenerbahce in Turkey on Thursday, followed by a Premier League encounter against Liverpool at home on Sunday, February 22.
