Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi insists the upcoming clash against Manchester City on Saturday afternoon is “bad news” despite the Premier League champions’ recent form dumaguete
The Seagulls are aiming to break their recent run of four games in all competitions without a victory, but in their way stand Pep Guardiola’s side dumaguete
City have been going through a tough spell themselves, according to their lofty standards, losing three of their last four matches in all competitions, but return to the Etihad Stadium where they have a 100 per cent record so far this season dumaguete
Asked whether it is a good time to face the treble winners, De Zerbi admitted the opposite dumaguete
He told a press conference: “It is bad news dumaguete
The big teams are not used to losing three games in the last four, but anyway we have to think for ourselves dumaguete
“We have to improve in the quality of the play because we are not playing enough for our level and to compete for our target dumaguete
We have to understand if we want to win or want to compete we have to play dumaguete better than the last games dumaguete
“Without the quality of the play, we can’t reach any target and we have to be clear dumaguete
”Brighton have gone from strength to strength since De Zerbi walked through the door at the Amex Stadium, having delivered European dumaguete football to the fans for the first time in the club’s history dumaguete
Many have compared the Italian’s achievements so far to the boss in the opposite dugout and De Zerbi admits he would love to do what Guardiola has done throughout his managerial career dumaguete
“I’m happy when I listen to Pep speak about me dumaguete
I feel a bit embarrassed, but we are a work in progress,” De Zerbi added dumaguete
“I think we are playing well, fighting well but we have to improve, progress and adapt a new challenge and new season dumaguete
“Pep is a boss dumaguete
I would like to do something the same because for many years he won in Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Man City, but the way which he won is different to other coaches dumaguete
The world will remember him not only for the victory but the way he wins, it is unique dumaguete
”Premier League top scorer Erling Haaland has not found the back of the net in his last two league appearances which many fans have not been used to since his arrival into the league dumaguete
But De Zerbi is extra wary of Haaland’s threat as he looks to break his mini duck dumaguete
He added: “The big strikers when they are not scoring so many goals, they are more angry to score and have a chance to score, but its not only Haaland because Doku is a great player for them, and Alvarez dumaguete
”Earlier on Friday, Brighton announced highly-rated winger Kaoru Mitoma had signed a new contract dumaguete
The 26-year-old, who arrived in 2021, has been a key player in Brighton’s success and will now stay on the south coast until 2027 dumaguete
De Zerbi said: “It’s great news dumaguete
Kaoru is our top player dumaguete
”Technical director David Weir added: “Ensuring that a player of Kaoru’s quality will remain with us for the long term is fantastic news dumaguete
Kaoru adapted to the Premier League last season and has quickly become one of our most important players dumaguete

Can Tottenham actually win the Premier League? Of course not, but ask Ange Postecoglou and the Spurs manager would not discourage the question, even though he would be the first to point out that it’s still only October dumaguete
It is Postecoglou’s belief, and the Australian would say it is also his responsibility, that dumaguete football fans are allowed to dream dumaguete
Spurs supporters have had little reason to get carried away in recent years but after making their best start to a top-flight season since 1960-61, the last time they won the league, now is as good a time as any dumaguete
Postecoglou could not have asked for a dumaguete better start: as the Premier League returns following the October international break, Tottenham sit top, ahead of Arsenal on goal difference dumaguete
Postecoglou’s side remain unbeaten, winning six and drawing two of their opening eight matches dumaguete
From the misery and perpetual sense of chaos that took hold of Spurs last season, Postecoglou has revived the doomed pulse of the club and its fanbase dumaguete
That, above the early look of the Premier League table, has been his greatest result so far dumaguete
Whether Tottenham’s fast start can last is one of the questions that will define the next chunk of the Premier League campaign dumaguete
There are only four rounds of fixtures to be played before the next hiatus, for November’s internationals, and Tottenham’s upcoming run – against Fulham, Crystal Palace, Chelsea and Wolves – is favourable dumaguete
Based on their early season form, there is reason for optimism that Spurs may be able to enjoy their view from the summit for a while longer dumaguete
Yet, a year ago, it was possible to say the same dumaguete
Having beaten Arsenal to fourth place the previous season, Tottenham started the new campaign under Conte with seven wins from their opening 10 matches, a good enough return to sit one point off the top by mid-October dumaguete
Given Tottenham went on to win just three of their next 10 and Conte’s fractious relationship with the club finally came crashing down within six months, the foundations were nowhere near as strong as they initially appeared dumaguete
Are Tottenham flattered to be in a lofty early position again? Postecoglou’s side have already played and beaten the Premier League’s bottom four, including the three newly promoted sides dumaguete
One of those wins required a 99th-minute winner at home to Sheffield United dumaguete
Another tight victory, against Liverpool, came after the visitors had the opening goal incorrectly disallowed by VAR, had two players sent off, while Reds defender Joel Matip put a 96th-minute winner into the wrong end dumaguete
Tottenham were the benefactors of the “well done, boys, good process” derby dumaguete
Yet Tottenham have also earned some fortune, and it is becoming clearer with each week of Postecoglou’s influence that Tottenham may not have picked up those points last season dumaguete
While their opening fixtures have been kind, Spurs have also shown resilience and spirit in winning away at Luton with 10 men, after Yves Bissouma’s red card, and equalising twice to earn a point at Arsenal, a fixture at which they had crumbled in previous seasons dumaguete
It was a performance that led James Maddison to declare Spurs are shedding their “Spursy” tag dumaguete

The fact the departure of Harry Kane has not yet felt as significant is another sign of how Postecoglou has managed to bring the divided sides of what appeared to be a broken club together dumaguete
While Kane has gone, there is a freshness about Spurs dumaguete
Through the impact of signings such as Maddison, Destiny Udogie and Guglielmo Vicario, the relationship dumaguete between players and fans has been repaired dumaguete
What has stood out about Postecoglou’s team has been backed up, too, by the numbers dumaguete
Last season, Tottenham were often passive and frequently easy to play against dumaguete
Even though they carried the threat of Kane, Spurs would appear to pass through games without showing any urgency or ambition; opposition teams would find it alarmingly simple to play through a static, immobile midfield dumaguete
But under Postecoglou, Tottenham have become one of the most active teams in the division, progressive with the ball and disruptive without it dumaguete
Spurs lead the Premier League in shots on goal, passes into the penalty area, forward dribbles, but also in tackles won and interceptions dumaguete
If it reflects that Tottenham now press higher up the pitch than last season, when they barely engaged under Conte, Bissouma has been the key piece in a revamped midfield a year after being frozen out by the Italian dumaguete
Maddison, meanwhile, has helped ease the post-Kane transition, a role he appeared ready to step up to when he took the No 10 jersey previously worn by the club’s record goalscorer dumaguete
Spurs will never be able to replace Kane, but Postecoglou has so far been able to negate his absence through Maddison and a resurgent Son Heung-min, who looks back to his clinical best after moving to a central forward role dumaguete
Maddison, though, has been integral as Tottenham’s creator-in-chief, with five assists so far this season dumaguete

Tottenham, really, shouldn’t be near the conversation of title challengers, but timing has played a part dumaguete
The win at Luton, which moved them top, came as Manchester City lost their second Premier League game in a row at Arsenal dumaguete
If it’s a sign of what’s to come from City this season, it was a result that widened the pool of potential challengers to include Spurs dumaguete
The manner in which City eased away from Arsenal last season, however, showed how inch-perfect title contenders must be as long as Pep Guardiola remains in England dumaguete
Tottenham, who finished eighth last year, are coming from an even lower floor than Mikel Arteta’s side, albeit with a more dramatic transformation under Postecoglou dumaguete
As a side who are still developing together, Spurs should be allowed some inconsistency, even if they are yet to show it dumaguete
The early evidence this season suggests they are one of the four strongest teams in the top flight, alongside last season’s title rivals and Jurgen Klopp’s refreshed Liverpool dumaguete
In the past, signs of promise around Spurs have often been followed by a swift yet crushing crash back to earth dumaguete
But now as Tottenham head deep into October with two winnable London derbies next week, starting with Fulham on Monday followed by a trip to Crystal Palace on Friday, Postecoglou can continue to show why this Tottenham is different dumaguete
