Transcript

00:00 Yes guys, how's it going? It's Henry Bryant with Sussex World and I've just

00:04 watched Brighton lose 3-0 in a devastating fashion to AFC Bournemouth

00:09 and just coming out of the post-match press conference there, Dzerbi issued an

00:13 apology to the fans and said I'm sorry for this performance and also said about

00:18 the soul of the team at the moment in that performance and said that wasn't

00:22 acceptable at all and I mean Brighton did have a few decent spells in the

00:27 first few minutes of the game but unfortunately that just didn't last for

00:31 long and one of their first goals that went in that was a lovely header just

00:36 seemed to kill Brighton's fans and Brighton players sort of morale

00:41 straight away and there was sort of a lack of urgency and a lack of passion

00:46 and determination and Dzerbi also said in the post-match press conference that

00:51 it's unclear what the goal is now for Brighton and Hove Albion now it's not

00:55 looking like there is European football on the cards for back-to-back season so

00:59 it's a difficult one to take for Brighton fans but they were still

01:03 there at the very end clapping their players and cheering them on even though

01:08 it was a quite a devastating loss for Brighton and this looked like it could

01:12 have been one of the easier fixtures in their running but we'll see we'll see

01:17 they've got Aston Villa next and hopefully they can build up and

01:22 potentially reset and go into this game with a lot more confidence it was

01:27 interesting to see that Dzerbi went into the game with two debutants you've got

01:32 Afair and Omohoney that were starting in this game and I think that

01:39 Afair played a decent game but it was quite a challenging and a tough fixture

01:44 for Omohoney that was just it was just not didn't feel like the right time for

01:49 him to play that sort of game we really needed the morale and the points there

01:53 but it's okay we go on and we see what we can get in the next few games that

01:58 we've got but I've been Henry Bryant for Sussex World and I'll catch you in the

02:03 next one
