Albion have amassed 12 points from their first five matches of the new season and are fifth in the fledgling Premier League table. Champions Manchester City have once looked imperious as they head the table with maximum points, while Ange Postecoglou’s impressive Tottenham are second following their narrow 2-1 home win against Sheffield United on Saturday.

Third placed Liverpool came from a goal down to beat Wolves 3-1 and Arsenal are fourth thanks to their 1-0 win away at Everton. Former Brighton ace Leo Trossard scored the decisive goal for the Gunners.

But Brighton are well in the mix and back to back wins against Champions League clubs Newcastle and Man United has many wondering just how far Brighton can go this season.

“I would like to fix now the new target but it's impossible,” head coach De Zerbi said to Sussex World in his press conference after Man United. “It's too early. "I think we have to wait for another month. I think more or less but our target now is Thursday [against AEK Athens] because it will be a historic day for us. And we have to, to reach that day in the best way.”
