Brighton manager, Roberto De Zerbi has thanked ex-Chelsea boss Graham Potter for building a strong team.
De Zerbi was reacting to their 2-1 win over the Blues on Saturday.
Chelsea lured Potter away from Brighton, only to sack him before the end of the campaign.
De Zerbi, meanwhile, has found success at the Amex since replacing Potter.
“I have to say thanks to Graham Potter because I found a very great and strong team and I am now trying to give my idea,” the Italian said after the game.
Brighton are now in seventh place with 49 points, while Chelsea remain 11th with 39 points.
