Brighton goalkeeper Steele: A great win at Man Utd; I'll adjust to Verbruggen rotation

Brighton goalkeeper Jason Steele was delighted with their 3-1 win at Manchester United.

The Seagulls were worthy winners at Old Trafford.

Steele later said: "It feels great. A great win. Away at Old Trafford, it is an amazing feeling. We deserved it too, we played with courage, with a big heart and definitely deserved to win.

"We want to play on the front foot, aggressive, United played a bit different to what we expected, so we had to get to grips with that. But after 10-15 minutes we settled down and got a foothold in the game."

On making six changes and still winning, he added: "It doesn't happen in the Premier League very often but we believe it each other. The manager believes in us more importantly. We know how it is going to be this season but we trust him 100%.

"We are a team of good guys who fight for each other and we have a leader in our boss who gives us good information."

On rotating in goal with Bart Verbruggen, Steele said: "It's different but it is what it is, He's the boss. He changed my life last season, by having trust and faith in me, so whatever he wants from me I'll give him."
