Brighton are a brilliantly run club, aren’t they. They’ve got some older players like Danny Welbeck, Lewis Dunk, Adam Webster and Jason Steele, but the bench they had against Manchester City was so strong.

You look at the age and sell-on values of players like Brajan Gruda, Joao Pedro, Carlos Baleba, Matt O’Riley and Evan Ferguson, and you know they are well run.

Fabian Hurzeler is also a quick learner. They are not one-trick ponies. They dominate some games, but are also happy to sit back and counter, like they did against Newcastle United.

It wasn’t an unbelievable surprise that they beat City, because they are an outstanding team.
