Graham Potter's players are mastering the art of the clean sheet as Brighton kept their third of the season in victory over Brentford

The precise lyrics cannot be printed, so let us paraphrase a chant that tumbled down the away end in West London.

Brighton owner Tony Bloom sat within the travelling support at Brentford, and among the songs and serenades came an X-rated ode to the chairman’s business sense. Specifically the £50million fee he extracted from Arsenal for defender Ben White.

Brighton can gloat about it now. Early days, of course, but so far Graham Potter’s side are defying those who feared the sale might erode any fine margins keeping that trapdoor at bay.
