DEEP BURN AS DAN DOWN
Budget Brighton defender
Dan Burn (£4.2m) did not reappear for the second half in Sunday’s win over Southampton due to a hamstring injury.

We lost Dan at half time with a tight hamstring. So we had to adapt and I thought we did it really well.
A little bit too early to say [on the severity]. It was more tightness and we’re hoping more precautionary, so we’ll see how it settles down over the next day or so.
