Welbeck: Brighton changing under De Zerbi

Brighton star Danny Welbeck is relishing taking on his old club Manchester United again.

The England forward has been in a great run of form in recent weeks, scoring twice in a 6-0 win over Wolves on Saturday.

Welbeck, who played for United after breaking through their academy, would love nothing more than to get one over his old side on Thursday in the Premier League.

Per The Argus, he said: “Since the manager [Roberto De Zerbi] has come in, we have not necessarily played with a striker.

“But we still occupy the spaces that need to be occupied.

“As a team we know how we want to defend, how we want to build-up, how we want to attack and the spaces might be more for the wingers.

“As a team we try and create some chances for the No.10s as well."
