Brighton boss Hughton pleased with Montoya impact

Brighton boss Chris Hughton is pleased with Martin Montoya's instant impact.

The former Valencia and Barcelona full-back got off to an accomplished start for the win against Manchester United.

Hughton said: "He's an experienced player who has played at a good level in some very big games. I think that helped in his first Premier League game.

"It gives us very good competition in that position, the sort of competition Bruno accepts and knows it's got to be the best thing for the team."
