'A long time coming'

Brighton winger Solly March spoke to Amazon Prime after returning to action against Brentford after over a year out with injury: "It has been a long time coming. It has been a tough 14 months or so, a long road and there's still a way to go to get my match fitness where it needs to be.

"It's different in training, one or two runs and I was blowing. The more minutes I get the better I will get and hopefully I'll get back to where I was."

On almost marking his return with a goal: "A bit too much time and a bit too much thinking. I just changed my mind a few times too many. I should have just gone with first instinct across goal but if I get another one in a few weeks hopefully I'll take it."

On how tough the recovery process has been: "It has been tough. It's my third serious injury now. Every time you do it then it will take longer but I've had great support behind me. I want to be playing every week and scoring goals."

On start under new manager: "It has been good, lots of positives. The league is tight, we've gone five or six without a win now but one or two wins and your back up towards fifth or sixth place again."
