Brighton boss Potter delighted with Lamptey form

Brighton boss Graham Potter is delighted with the form of Tariq Lamptey.

The 21-year-old was among several stand-out Albion players for victory at Watford.

Potter said, “You look at things like the injury he had at his age and also that it's very difficult to play at that top level every week, but he always contributes. Some days he will be more eye-catching than others but I thought on Saturday he was excellent.

“He defended well, kept the ball when he had to and was positive all the time. I am really pleased with him.

“The challenges and tackles he goes into aren't a worry. We have built him up in terms of his minutes and I am sure our supporters would want him on the pitch longer but they have to understand he's had a terrible injury but he's getting stronger and better. He's not played a lot so we're really excited about him going forward."
