Brighton's winless streak in the Premier League stretched to four matches following a 0-0 draw with Sunderland. Saturday's contest at the Amex Stadium was distinctly lacking in attacking quality, as the spoils were shared in the first Premier League meeting between these teams. Sunderland, without a glut of key players due to the Africa Cup of Nations, turned in a resolute display, and may have won it if not for some fine goalkeeping from Bart Verbruggen.

Let's say [Frankfurt] were a bit too cautious. People talk about attacking football, European football, and we respect everyone. Had we played the same way in Germany, they would have spoken about old football, Catenaccio [defensive tactics] and counter-attacks. There's maximum respect. Let's say we are good teachers anyway. We are trying to go forward at a footballing level and offer something European, dominating the game and making an important impression.
