Brighton winger Solly March: My position undervalued

Brighton winger Solly March says his position can sometimes be undervalued.

March admits often his work goes underappreciated.

He told the Brighton website, "I think it is more of an up-and-down position than anywhere else on the pitch, for the reasons I've mentioned.

"If you look at someone like Mo Salah at Liverpool, he has been unbelievable this season but in more recent games people have said he's been poor. It's hard to produce every game, set up others as well as score goals.

"A midfielder might be expected to make ten 15-yard passes and that's your job but if you're not beating players as a winger, getting balls into the box or scoring goals, then you're more closely scrutinised. That does come with the territory though and it's something you accept and get on with."
