Furthermore, Conte also said Potter worked with the same team for many years which helped him improve his performance and tactical aspects. For this, he credits Potter for making Brighton such a good team.
Apart from that, Conte also briefly mentioned the meeting of the two teams in the FA Cup earlier last month. This time the manager conceded Spurs' 3-1 win over the same opponent in the FA Cup fourth round was a bit unfair.
"To be honest, against Brighton it wasn't easy. I think tonight we played a better game than the FA Cup. We won it 3-1 but the result was a bit unfair because they shot a lot and they were unlucky in that game."
Meanwhile, the result in this match at the Falmer Stadium made Brighton swallow six consecutive defeats in the Premier League. This makes them increasingly slumped in the Premier League standings.
