Alisha Lehmann has been labelled a "rabbit in the headlights" after her latest subdued display for Leicester City Women. Her struggles highlight the team's dire situation as they plummet closer to a devastating Women's Super League relegation, with a 1-0 defeat to Brighton on Sunday leaving them four points adrift at the bottom with just four matches left to play.

Chelsea forward Lauren James insists she should be credited with two goals following a frantic 4-3 victory over Aston Villa in the Women's Super League. Despite official match records awarding her just one strike in the seven-goal thriller, the England international is adamant about adding another to her tally as the Blues moved up to second in the table.

Lucy Bronze endured a nightmare outing for Chelsea in their WSL clash with Aston Villa, but the legendary Lionesses defender saw her blushes spared by Sjoeke Nusken in a chaotic seven-goal thriller that ended 4-3. Sam Kerr, Naomi Girma and Lauren James were also on target for the Blues in a topsy-turvy encounter that means their title defence is not yet officially over.

Manager Renee Slegers has highlighted Alessia Russo's maturing influence within the Arsenal squad following her devastating first-half performance against Tottenham. Beyond the goals, the Gunners' boss is seeing a shift in the forward’s personality and responsibility on the training pitch as the season reaches its climax.
