Brighton midfielder Stephens happy with Potter's possession game

Brighton midfielder Dale Stephens is enjoying the style of manager Graham Potter.

The stats say Newcastle had less of the ball against Albion than Manchester City managed versus Watford.

Asked whether he had played in a side quite like that which Graham Potter is moulding, the Albion midfielder told The Argus: “No, honestly not.

“It's the first time I have played in a system that probably suits me better, I would say.

“It probably suits the players and individuals we have at the club at the minute.

“Everyone is enjoying playing in a team that is dominating possession."
