Brighton U23 coach Andrew Crofts is delighted with the response of his players since taking charge.
Alongside Shannon Ruth, the pair have overseen a win, a defeat and four draws since taking over from Simon Rusk at the beginning of February.
“It's been really good, there's been lots of positives in the performances that the team has put in over the six games since me and Shannon [Ruth] started," Crofts told the club's website.
“We had one really convincing win against West Ham, a close defeat to the best team in the league in Manchester City, albeit with some penalty decisions going against us. We've drawn the rest, but they could have easily been wins.
“The group have really bought into what we have tried to implement and build on from what Simon Rusk had done. I am enjoying the new role and am getting to know the boys even better. There's plenty to work on, we're really trying to hone in on how important everyday standards are, but also to emphasise that they grow and learn as much as they can when they come into work."
