Brighton boss Dario Vidosic has received the Women's Super League manager of the month award for October.

Vidosic has guided Brighton to fourth in the WSL table after five games and they sit just three points behind leaders Manchester City.

The Australian oversaw wins against Aston Villa and Crystal Palace this month, while they also fought back to claim a 1-1 draw against Manchester United.

Vidosic, who won the award ahead of Chelsea's Sonia Bompastor and Manchester City’s Gareth Taylor, said he has felt "so welcome" since joining the Seagulls from Melbourne City Women in July.

"It's a family club which makes it really easy to settle in very, very quickly," he said on Thursday.

"From the club in general, everyone's asking how are you, even just as simple as that - just to make a minute to talk and to see how's things.

"This is more an award for everyone else than me."
