KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 23 — Two foreign nationals have become the first individuals in Malaysia to be charged in court for littering under the newly enforced anti-littering law, according to a report by The Star.
Arne Slot has praised Nottingham Forest’s impressive rise in the Premier League,stating they "deserve" to be considered title contenders ahead of Liverpool's upcoming match against them. Currently sitting in third place, Forest could move within three points of the title favorites with a win in their seventh consecutive league victory. Despite narrowly avoiding relegation last season, Forest’s unexpected climb to the top has surprised many, and Slot acknowledged their strong form, including a 1-0 victory over Liverpool in September, as evidence of their serious competition. He also highlighted the work of manager Nuno Espirito Santo and the team’s significant investment in newplayers after returning to the Premier League in 2022.
Slot, whose first season at Liverpool has been successful, downplayed his own achievements, focusing on ensuring his players are fit, disciplined, and playing their best style of football. He emphasized that the position at the halfway point of the season isn’t something he predicted, noting that it’s impossible to know how other teams will perform. Forest’s recent form and their historical success under manager Brian Clough in the late 1970s have added an extra layer of intrigue to their current resurgence in English football.
