Brighton star Adam Lallana has described his team's win over Liverpool earlier this season as a poignant moment.

The Albion are enjoying a great season under Roberto De Zerbi, as they battle for a spot in the FA Cup final.

Lallana wants to get back from a hamstring injury to help the team in the cup and the Premier League.

He said, per The Argus: “I've got still got a lot of friends there. A lot of team-mates.

“That was a poignant moment for me this season, playing against my old team where we almost conquered the world.

“I know they were having a tough moment but to perform how we did against them, it was one of the moments where I went home that night and sat there and just really enjoyed it.

“I mean really enjoyed it - that performance, the way we won.

“You don't often get a chance to enjoy winning football matches when you're playing at Liverpool.

“You've always got to think about the next one in three days where, at the moment, we often have a game a week.

“There have been four or five times this season where I've come in on the Monday and you get the chance to think back about the game.

“And God, that was dominant, right? Let's enjoy it because it doesn't often happen.

“You know we're winning football matches in ways that don't often happen.

“And you just say to supporters that you enjoy it while it's here because it's not that normal to be performing like how we're performing at the moment.

“Of course, we'll look to get better and keep improving but the league is strong, every team is going to bounce, going to spend money.

“It feels like we're kind of ahead of the game.

“With the outlay we spend, we shouldn't be where we are now.

“It's because I think we do things differently, which is why we are where we are and that's why it's such an exciting place to be, an infrastructure to work for.

“Always looking outside the box and that that's why I'm so delighted to be here for another year and work and learn."
