Potter calls for Brighton humility after defeating West Ham

Graham Potter says Brighton will 'stay humble' after their win over West Ham United.

The Seagulls claimed a 2-0 win over the Hammers at London Stadium.

Alexis Mac Allister and Leandro Trossard scored for the visitors, who have now collected seven points from the opening three Premier League matches.

Potter said: "To see out some tough periods when we had to, create opportunities, score two good goals and keep a clean sheet means there are a lot of pleasing things there.

"The performance was quite strong, even though there are things we can still improve on and we'll stay humble.

"We know how tough the Premier League is and how respectful we are of our opponent, so we just focus on the next game. That's all we do, focus on the next match and try to put as much energy into that."

He added: "There's no secret and if there was I probably wouldn't tell you either!

"It's just a hard-working team that try their best. We have had to deal with key players leaving us in the summer, but the group is really strong and there is a nice foundation of players and personalities."
