SEAGULLS FACING THE GREAL DEAL

- BY MATTHEW DUNN

GRAHAM POTTER fears Jack Grealish’s game has “gone up a level” since the last time he faced him.

Which is bad news given the Aston Villa skipper has scored in each of his last four games against Brighton.

Seagulls boss Potter said: “He’s done it on the pitch for a long time in the Premier League and now in internatio­nal football. He’s taken his game to another level.

“It’s nice, for an Englishman, that he’s fulfilling that potential and showing it on the internatio­nal stage. But hopefully he has a bit of an off day!”

Given that recent historyhis­tory, Potter (left) is kkeeping his pplans on how to stop Grealish under wraps. He added: “Man-mark hihim or deal with him as a team? I’ve used both over my career. It depends on the players you have got. “But I won’t give too much away. As a team we will try to play well and to carry on what we have been doing.

“We need to cover all the bases, not just one.”
