Brighton matchwinner Alexis Mac Allister says they're going for a top ten finish this season.

The Seagulls came from behind to triumph at Burnley as Neal Maupay cancelled out James Tarkowski's early opener in the 73rd minute and substitute Mac Allister then slotted in five minutes later, having been brought on just after the equaliser.

Argentinian midfielder Mac Allister said on Brighton's official website: “It's great to start with three points. But as a team there is more to come. Our goal this season is to try to finish in the top 10 and that's what we are working towards."

Mac Allister added: “We spoke about making an impact as a sub before the game. The coach knows he's got good players on the bench as well and it's difficult to pick an 11, but as he always says we have to be prepared to come in and score or help the team.

“Every player wants to play every game and every minute. But we have fantastic players and it's hard, but I work every day and I try to be prepared because I know that I can come on and help the team."
