Brighton attacker Leandro Trossard says new manager Roberto de Zerbi wants to employ an attacking style of play.

Trossard was speaking after scoring a hat-trick for last week's 3-3 draw at Liverpool.

He told the Daily Mail: "When the new manager told me I needed to score more, I said he needed to give me the chances to do it.

"Because most of the time before a game I didn't know where I was playing. I think that forward is where I'll play most regularly. I don't know whether it will be left, right or centrally but he wants me closer to the goal.

"If I am playing wing-back, you can't expect me to score every game, can you? There are fine margins also. Sometimes things have to go your way but generally the more chances you create, the more goals you will score.

"If you get only two chances and miss them, people will say quickly that you can't score goals. But Manchester City or Liverpool create 15 chances a game and score three.

"City had 30 shots in the Champions League but you wouldn't expect them to score 15 from 30, would you?

"So people say they score a lot but that's because they create so many. This manager wants us to get to that point. If you create 10 and score three of them, that's actually fantastic.
