Brighton veteran James Milner admits they have found their feet in the Europa League this season.

The Albion were in fine form in midweek, beating Ajax 2-0 at home on Thursday in the group stages.

Milner, who has won the Champions League with Liverpool, admitted they have to continue this form if they are to progress to the next round.

Post-game, he told TNT Sports: "This was a big win, it was important to get the first win in Europe after a slow start in the group, especially away from home.

"I think if you look at the Brighton squad, there is a lot of quality and the performances last season weren't a fluke, they obviously deserved to be in Europe.

“We would have liked to start the group a bit quicker but we have improved now. We've learned so much from these three games as a group."
