Graham Potter hails 'breath of fresh air' Danny Welbeck after striker scored his first goal for Brighton in 2-1 win against Aston Villa and insists 'there is definitely more to come' from the former Arsenal man

Brighton boss Graham Potter insists there is more to come from Danny Welbeck after the striker scored his first goal for the club at Aston Villa.

Welbeck, who joined Albion last month on a free transfer after leaving Watford, opened the scoring after 12 minutes at Villa Park on Saturday to set Potter's men on their way to a 2-1 victory.

Adam Lallana sent Welbeck clear with a neat through-ball but the former England striker still had plenty to do, carrying the ball half the length of the pitch before keeping his composure to calmly lift his shot over former Arsenal team-mate Emiliano Martinez.
