The Swede had originally been listed as a substitute for the match at Old Trafford, but was drafted into team that kicked off against the Seagulls because of Raphael Varane being taken ill.
On how much notice he had to prepare himself, Victor told club media: “I would say 15 minutes or so before the warm-up but I mean, before every game, even if I am playing or not, I am always preparing in the same way.
“I am always ready for whatever so yeah, today they told me I was going to start late on but, like I said, I’m always ready and I’m happy to help the team.
