LONDON: Eight goals and six points from their opening two games have put Brighton and Hove Albion on top of the Premier League for the first time in their history - proof, if any were still needed, that they are one of the best run clubs in the top flight. Brighton, homeless and facing an uncertain future
LONDON: Eight goals and six points from their opening two games have put Brighton and Hove Albion on top of the Premier League for the first time in their history - proof, if any were still needed, that they are one of the best run clubs in the top flight.
Inevitably their big-name players became targets for the Premier League's so-called elite and keeper Robert Sanchez and midfielder Moises Caicedo were lured to Chelsea with Alexis Mac Allister joining Liverpool - the three deals worth close to 200 million pounds . Those 34 games have also witnessed 119 goals - 69 for Brighton and 50 for the opposition - the highest number of any club since former Sassuolo and Shakhtar Donetsk coach De Zerbi replaced Graham Potter, who jumped ship to Chelsea.
West Ham, like Brighton, also appear a club on the rise after winning last year's Europa Conference League and last week's 3-1 victory over Chelsea means they will head to Brighton confident of bringing the Seagulls back to earth.
