Brighton boss Potter hails 'monster' Sanchez for Burnley draw

Brighton boss Graham Potter hailed the performance of Robert Sanchez for Saturday's 1-1 draw with Burnley.

Sanchez followed up clean sheets against Leeds, Spurs and Liverpool with key saves at Turf Moor to stretch Brighton's unbeaten run to five.

"Robert is a monster in terms of his physicality," said Potter after watching the 23-year-old stop Matej Vydra at point-blank range to deny Burnley the win.

"He's not just big but powerful too. He has everything to be a top goalkeeper.

"He made saves and helped when Burnley challenged us in the box."
