Brighton midfielder Dale Stephens is ready to work for new manager Graham Potter.

Stephens is about to play under his fourth different manager (or head coach to give Graham Potter his proper title) since joining the club from Charlton in January 2014.

"It's different," Stephens told The Argus. "I've played under quite a few managers, and it's nice to see new ideas and how different managers work. I've had four in five and a half years here, but in that time we've generally had a lot of success, so I look back on it positively.

"I met him (Potter) in the summer off-season. He met a few of the players, and it's been good to train with him and he's a very good coach. He's brought in new ideas to the club and it's quite refreshing."
