Zoe Morse is looking forward to making her FA Cup debut on Sunday as Albion head to Keys Park to take on West Bromwich Albion.
Morse arrived earlier this month and is loving life in Sussex having played all her football in the States with Chicago Fire.
"I've loved it so far. I knew it was going to be a new challenge, but that's why I came here," Morse said. "It's taken a bit of time to settle in but now that I've got a few games under my belt I feel the challenge is in front of me and I know what I need to do to take that on.
"From the first time I stepped into the training ground, it was just incredible - the facilities were just at another level.
"I think that we have everything we need to find success on the field - I'm very grateful for that as a player."

Morse is ready to implement her style of play alongside her new teammates. She added, "The NWSL is a very transitional and fitness-heavy league so I have that in my game already.
"Each time that we play together we learn each other's tendencies more and more which is huge as a defence. With each game it feels more comfortable and we get on the same page."
After securing her first WSL and Conti Cup start in the past few weeks, Morse is keen to experience the FA Cup for the first time.
"I've been watching it from the outside but to now be on the inside I'm excited about the experience.
"For me Sunday is about us. As Jens [Scheuer] said, we'll respect them but it's what we've been doing on the training pitch that is where our focus is."
