"We are frustrated, but we have to understand that Sunderland were a good side today, they played well, and it is not a surprise that they are where they are in the table. We have to realise that there are big opportunities in the game. The first half was not great to watch, and in the second half, there were enough chances to win the game."
"It's no excuse. Of course, these players are important enough, but we still have a strong squad."
Brighton drew 0-0 with Sunderland, stretching their winless run to four matches and dropping to ninth in the table. Brighton were missing Lewis Dunk, Jan Paul van Hecke and Danny Welbeck but the manager insisted injuries were no excuse and maintained confidence in the squad. The home side struggled to create meaningful chances, failing to score at home for the first time since April, with a quiet first half and more promise after the interval. Sunderland produced a strong away display, forcing saves from Bart Verbruggen and accumulating more points than any promoted side over the last two seasons.
